Have you a silly ring tone on your mobile?

Mine's the Pac-Man intro tune:

Nope, keep it on silent with vibrate.

There's a running joke in this place about the ridiculousness of the sales peoples ring tones... must go with the job...

Dr. Loon · 23-10-2001 3:59pm

Yeah... a really dodgy version of Jimi Hendrix's Voodoo Chile

It's really bad actually, I must change it

whitetrash · 23-10-2001 4:41pm

I have the X-Men one, really cool

I really, really, really want the MTV Underpants ring tone (from the ad

) - if only so I have an excuse to dance like an idiot in public

Fancy ring tones are for tossers.
BOOO & HISS...
Even listening to those tone2ph0ne adds makes me cringe... and I hope they go under very very quickly.

There's a great new mobile out though, my bro got one... it doesn't rely on those stupid 'beep-beepy-BEEP' sounds, it has reasonable quality sound recording & playback... so you can have what ever sounds you want as whatever ring event.
Far less annoying to listen to.

Karl Hungus · 23-10-2001 7:29pm

I actualy know someone (I won't name names) who was listening to that STUPID ****ing ringtone (The "Keanu, call me, call me on my mobile!" one) on his walkman.
He actualy taped it!

That has to be the stupidest ring tone EVAR!

I have some ****ty classical peice on my, as my ****ty philips Savvy only has default ones...

A m8 of mine has the coolest ****ing ringtone ever!
He sat in work all day composing a BLINDED BY FEAR ringtone for himself!

Coolest thing yet...
Only he uses the Thunderbirds theme...

As soon as I get a decent mobile, I'll get that damn right tone off him. Coolest thing out, does it be!

elexes · 23-10-2001 8:32pm

those bloody ppl that think there ringtone is so cool and must listen to the hole thing b4 they pick up like come on

oops wrong post

phaxx · 23-10-2001 8:43pm

For the love of god, use a RING, not a "tune".

Although, it's handy in that if I ever hear a stupid ringtone, I know it can't be me.

fuse · 23-10-2001 11:46pm

I used to have that pac-man one, but I went back to my old favourite - Glenroe!, always gets a laugh!

Dustaz · 24-10-2001 1:26am

I use the basic nokia Ring (ring ring, ring ring - that one) for unspecified calls and a few different tunes for some friends.

I have the MTV_Nokia_Keanu_call_me_tone and it is truly a thing of great beauty. if anyone wants it, pm me with yer number and ill send it:)

Gets the odd amused glance from the knowing few when it goes off in the pub.

Stephen · 24-10-2001 11:51am

I fuking HATE mobile ringtones. As I sit here in the library in college, I can hear a constant BEEP BEEP, BEEP BEEP coming from some gimp's nokia during his little sms chat. These people can't read the signs all over the place reading TURN OFF YOUR MOBILE PHONE. The muppets let them ring for ages and then have full conversations. Meanwhile anyone trying to do some actual work in the library is plotting their painful and long death.

GoneShootin · 24-10-2001 11:57am

BEEP BEEP, BEEP BEEP

correction stehpen but RINGTONES are when the mobile RINGS, for voicechat, not the BEEP BEEP, BEEP BEEP for SMS, those guys are standard....

but yes i know what you mean, i hate them too, but in your library are there not people that will come to the individual and warn him/her ?

Lyconix · 24-10-2001 12:03pm

You know what _I_ hate?

Being on a bus with loads of those cheesy bubblegum pop ringtones going off, and that infernal SOS-style SMS incoming beep that goes on for ages.... euuuuuurgh >:(

Stephen · 24-10-2001 12:13pm

gone shootin' : no, I'm on the 3rd floor here of the college library... there's no staff up here. ('cept the computer services department, but they're locked away in their little room).

They can be changed on lots of phones...

Lyconix · 24-10-2001 12:45pm

True. Problemo is, no-one usually changes them from the extremely loud and annoying SOS-style one...

Stephen · 24-10-2001 12:51pm

BEEP BEEP BEEEEP BEEEEP BIP BIP BIP, BEEP BEEP BEEEEP BEEEEP BIP BIP BIP

Thats the one, ARGH! :mad:

Belisarius · 24-10-2001 3:29pm

I have a rather ****e version of whats supposedly Linoleum by noFX , though it coulda fooled me , I mean really Ringtones are a bit gay really , just a bit ?

I was on the bus once and I heard an Airwolf one behind me ..now thats a ringtone

Victor · 24-10-2001 7:52pm

I once sat on the bus and someone had 'Dracula' music on their phone. And it rang and rang and rang (you get the idea). Then I realised someone at work had been messing with my phone and set it to 'Dracula' music .....

Got another phone and set it to vibrate, this meant I usually got to it before it rang. However, I then developed a 'tingle' in my chest (I'd keep the phone in my top pocket).

Generally I prefer to keep it short and simple.

Don't have a phone at the moment (stolen).

GoneShootin · 24-10-2001 10:27pm

i heard of a library , where i dont know, where they have scanners at entry. they check for phones and not books tho. so phone are to be left at desk b4 entry, which is fair nuff

Lyconix · 24-10-2001 11:40pm

Really? Neat... perhaps a geiger counter is in those scanners
