Grown Men with songs as custom ring-tones (1 Viewer)

I think it's cute that the yellow jeep driving, kickball playing, gun toting because the boogie man is going to get him guy is telling grown men how to behave.

 
Hey woz

I have tried the vibrate thing. I never felt the stupid thing going off and missed some important things. I need the ringer. And I need it as high as it can go bc im hard of hearing

Suck it

Anybody who actually uses a ringtone needs to stop. No reason to ever have one's phone off vibrate.

Why would you possibly need the ringer?

Yes. I have never once thought to myself, "man, I wish my ringer was on."

I have only ever thought to myself, if I accidentally turned ringer on, "Oh crap, my phone is going off, I'm such a d-bag because holy crap this must annoy others".

You wear your phone clipped to your belt on your hip, don't you?

Right pocket. Unnoticeable to others and a silent, secret surprise for me when it goes off.

 
Seriously though how many of you who claim you need a ringer have an iPhone? I keep mine in my front pocket and it feels like a 2.0 earthquake when it goes off. I've gotten to learn which vibration is a call, which is a text, and which is an e-mail.

Seriously, please knock it off.

We have this new guy in operations here at work. The silver fox. Guy's probably 60 years old and was hired because he's got some belt in Six Sigma something or other. What he doesn't have is the technical know how to tactfully operate his new smartphone.

He's apparently figured out that the phone has the capability to assign different ring tones to each of his contacts. He's also figured out that these ring tones don't have to be normal, unobtrusive tones... but he's able to download the entire Alabama and Jethro Tull library, and tag each track to a different contact.

WIthout fail, we're now treated to no less than a half dozen full-volume renditions of "aqualung" or "take the money and run" at random times throughout the day. I'm guessing he's hard of hearing, as these frequently are allowed to carry through to completion without much response from good ol Bob. This would be mildly annoying if it were a normal ring tone... but the use of crappy 70s tracks really puts it over the edge, IMO.

Fellas.... use a normal ring tone.

I work with this guy. Same description. It's not a smartphone, though. Custom ringtones for his dozen adult kids. Special chime for texts. He's losing his hearing so these are all ultra loud.

Some of us need room down there so can't wear skinny pants as you apparently can.. :mellow:
 
I use the Three Stooges saying Hello or the first 10 seconds or so to Under My Thumb by the Rolling Stones. It happens.

 
I think Bob sounds like a cool fella. I hope he continues to use his variety of tracks from the 70s as ringtones. Hey, maybe he could use this 70s tune as your ringtone, [icon].

 
brohans if i could use a song it would be brandy by looking glass for a ringtone that song rocks pretty hard but back to the topic at hand why do some guys feel like they need to tell other people what to do i mean who cares it is the dudes phone and hey brewers fans if the thing that really ruins your day is a ringer then you have a pretty good life go try and spend your energy on something that will help someone and quit being a laroosh take that to the bank

dang.. i really like having an individual ring-tone for each of the most 10-12 most frequent people that call me so that without even looking at the phone I know who's calling.

Most are instrumental like the imperial march or knightrider theme, but I do have "you're the best, around" for my wife and Owl City's "Dental Care" for when the office calls

I really like using the app Zedge for ring tones, notification tones (currently using the flux capaciter tone from Back to the Future) and wallpaper

Guess I'm lame

 
Vibrate. Sound is for losers.

If you aren't smart enough to figure it out... Darwin.

 
I've had Also sprach Zarathustra and a part of Lit - My Own Worst Enemy. I really should get those back. :oldunsure:

Nothing says classy like a dude with vibrating pants.

A famous old adage:

That which vibrants in one's pants is not noticed outside of the arousal of the one.

That which actually ####### makes noise during a meeting, makes the phone owner look like an ###.

Or something like that.

 
I have She Loves You as my wife's ringtone.

And am rocking that Zelda secret as my text notification.

I prefer not to constantly expose my manhood to cellphone radiation by jamming it in my skinny jeans all the time. So going with vi rate isn't really an option.

Most phones are able to be turned off or to silent/vibrate when you're in a meeting/movie/whatever. If your phone is unable to handle such things, then yes, it's better to just keep it on vibrate all the time.

 
Perfectly acceptable for a grown man to have a custom ring tone. Now a grown man with a ring back song, super gay.

hey brother we need you in the Travis Kelce thread in the shark pool. Looking for a good nickname for him in the vein of your previous hits: Nick Foley Canoli, and Randall the Touchdown Robber Cobber.

I'll hangup and listen.

Dress left, phone right. Unless you're feeling kinky.

One shouldn't be interrupting Aqualung anyway - Bob is spot on here.
