Don't answer. If it is important they will leave a voicemail.

I'll pick it up sometimes, but I'll hang up on some bullshit.
If they're popping up as "unknown number"

Most of the time I don't answer.

Sometimes though I'll answer with the intention of fucking with whoever is on the other end.

I answer it. I don't really get the "never answer to numbers I don't know" mentality. The way I see it, you have complete control over the phone. If you don't like whose on the other end, you just hang up.

If it's something dumb I don't answer, if it's a more local number I'll pick up

I glare at it as if to make it feel guilty for interrupting whatever song or video was playing at the time. I'll answer if the same number calls a second time, though.

Reject the call, Google the number, and if they left a voicemail, read the transcript to see if it's worth anything.

Answer it.

If it's asking about someone, let them know wrong number.
If it's free vacation bs, listen long enough to indentify if they're a real human. If yes, say I'm not interested and hang up. If no, hang up.
If it's indentified as scam, ignore it.

Answer it. If it's a scam or a robot, I can hang up. If it's my bank or something, they will just keep calling. If it turns out to be someone or something I don't want to hear from, I'll just put it on my phone's reject list and be done with it.

Why are people so terrified of unknown numbers? Did they invent an instant kill bullet that could travel through phone lines when I wasn't paying attention?

This. When I see something from the mainland I just block the number and erase it from my recent call history.
