I like to try and see how many copies of the watchtower I can get out of them (I love those things, they make me feel like a kid again- just having them). I'll keep absentmindedly asking to see the literature, sometimes i keep putting it back behind the door, but when I want to be a dick I just hold the stack of it in my hands. Actually had a JW try to take my stack back once- and then it was on, stone face grip game ftw.
You can really separate the newbs from the seasoned pros that way. The new ones get so bubbly that if you just keep saying yes and shaking your head yes while asking questions we have a natural human urge to agree with whatever request others make (and obviously this helps to relive the tension we might feel in such a situation). You can even get a few earnest laughs that way if they realize they're being had after a sizeable number of pamphlets have changed hands.
