Vibrate > Ringtone

dove_from_above [Edit] [Delete] 56 replies 12:18, 6 March '07

And that goes for ANY ringtone. Just have your phone on vibrate, innit. My friends are slowly but surely beginning to see the light. Go forth people, and vibrate

If you still go for the ringtone option, what one do you have and how on earth does it not irritate you?

    • I fucking hate ringtones

      My phone is always on silent/vibrate.

      • do you ever answer it?

        "mum i rang you 4 times"
        "my phone was off tho. it always is..."

        !!!!!!!!

        meths @bamos | 6 Mar '07, 12:24 | X
        • Yes, I answer it

          Because it vibrates to let me know it's ringing. Handy that...

          • I'm the same.

            I hate them. And the generic ring ring one I used to use just made me look dull.

          • I

            wouldn't normally get into a ringtone discussion, but thanks to a mate that actually bothers to find them I have now got the Bill & Ted "Excellent!" as my message tone and a song called Magic, Magic E from Words and Pictures as my ringtone.

            What the crap use is having it on vibrate when the pocket on your trousers is down by your ankle? Or if your phone is downstairs?

              • That

                is the tune, but now I don't know where it is from. You've got me questioning my very existence now.

                My ringtone varies between that and Shawn Michael's entrance music, Sexy Boy. Again, thanks to the same friend

                • maybe they had it in words and pictures too

                  but they defo had it in look see. the o's in the look became eyes and went 'knick knock knick knock knickknicnkknock'

                  magic E had the little cartoon wizard flying about turning twins into twine and suchlike. I often sing that song in my head. as I do the theme tune to through the dragons. they are my safe places.

                  words and pictures had the magic light up pen. amazing.

          • Somewhat bizarrely

            That is the ringtone that prompted me to start this thread. Some cunt behind me has it and it triggered a small but steady brew of contempt inside my brain

                      cos i don't like other people knowing when i've got a text.

                      My ringtone is Paint It Black for the simple reason that that is what the previous owner selected.

                      than a phone on vibrate going ddrrrr....drrrrr....drrrr... like if it vibrated any harder it would actually start drilling through the surface.

                      I would never feel it vibrate, so I'd miss things if it didn't ring.

                        the idea of a 'good' or 'shit' ringtone. I mean it's just a noise to let you know your phone is ringing innit? People don't go around complaining that their doorbells are shit do they?

                        I haven't changed mine for years.
