Besides, blasting him with words is like clanging a symbal.... it's just noise to him and gives him satisfaction to know he still has control.

Do Not Do It.
This is what worked for me too.

My exh finally stopped calling a month ago... the month prior to that... he'd call and leave a message... I wouldn't call back.

By not calling him back.. I had the last word.... and peace.... still do.
