My wife and I can't come to the phone right now, but if you'll leave your name and number, we'll get back to you as soon as we're finished.

George Costanza Answering Machine

A George Costanza Answering Machine is when you record a ridiculous greeting people hear when they call your answering machine. It comes from an episode of "Seinfeld" where George's greeting is himself singing a song off key to avoid talking to his girlfriend.

I HATE calling Paul when he isn't home. He has a George Costanza Answering Machine.
