What is your RINGTONE?!

Sign in to disble this ad
so in this day and age we have all these fancy phones that not only play real music as ringtones but we can make our own ringtones..so as i was making my own ringtones for my iPhone™ and i was just wondering what everyone rocks out to and subjects others to when they call. ill go first.

Co-Workers: Aesop Rock-9-5ers anthem
Boss: Slayer- Angel of Death
Wifey: Bob Marley- Mellow Mood
Best Friend- Morris Day and the Time-The Bird
Minnesota Friends: a Tribe Called Quest-Can I Kick It?
Mom: Sly and the Family Stone-Que Sera Sera
Pittsburgh Friends: Glassjaw- RyRy's song
General/unknown: Sleep-Dragonaut intro

now i know most of you arent as neurotic as me and have a ringtone for everything but i spend alot of my day talking to customers and such and i use my ringtones to seperate order of priority at a distance.lets see what you got.

right now any unknown incoming call gets the Geiko "ringiddy-dongding-dingiddy-dohhhh" from the commercial. Previous to that is usually Cartman singing "Wild Wild West".

Alway good for looks from people at a restaurant.


:-)

Usually disbelief followed by an uncontrolled smile when they realize that it's the 'worst ringtone ever' from a commercial.

Ramones, "I Wanna Be Sedated" for my wife, and Rick James, "Mary Jane" for everyone else.

No, there is no actual meaning in either case, it's just two ringtones I happen to like.

I just have a regular old phone ringing for my ringtone,but a friend of mine has "Teenage Lobotomy" by the Ramones for when I call.

Nothing better than calling her at work and knowing her co-workers are looking at her as her phone blasts out "LOBOTOMY! LOBOTOMY!".

My general ringtone is a clip from Sublime's 5446/Ball and Chain where it starts the "Give it to me.... one time...", etc..

My gf is You Got the Hooch, by Sublime.

Ex Wife is just the first few seconds of Die, Die, Die, My Darling.... right up to where the words start.

Oh... and I got a Borat ringtone for text messages.... it says "You have a text message. High five!" I don't know why I still have that... just too lazy to change it, I guess.

Currently -- 'Hell' by Disturbed for all incoming calls, Special Ed's 'I've got Mail' for text messages, and the '*beep* Mail, MotherF***er' from Eurotrip for voicemails. I usually cycle out the main ringtone between 'Hell', the intro to 'Frayed Ends of Sanity', and Disturbed's cover of 'Land of Confusion' every once in a while.

My wife: Into The Void, because she's one of the few people metal enough to be worthy of that song
