I was talking to some peeps on mapcore IRC channel the other day, only to find (I was horrified) thats Jamster and thier evil Frog and bird and other crappy ringtones have somehow got to Yankland!

What do you guys think about the crazy frog? It's everywhere! Every advert on the net seems to have Axel F remixes of frogs and birds and crap!

Evil as it may seem though, I believe it holds the key to funding all of us to be trillionaires... All we need to do is create a crazy snark ringtone which has a stupid high pitched voice and crazy animations. I think it'll sell to the morons of the world quite well, as well as all those needy geeks.

Was ok, if like one or two people had it. But if everyone has it, it
ceases to be cool/novelty. We had it advertised twice in ad breaks over
here. And, considering people bought the single, AND lots have it on
their phone. If its f**king everywhere it surely ceases to be distinct.
I mean how the hell do they even know their phone is ringing if its on
the radio, tv and everyone elses?

I'm one of the last ones, the non mobile people. Yes! We still exist
(mainly in developing nations and old peoples homes). I do have one.
but it was a gift/dog collar from a girl. I don't know enough people to
warrant a personal line, and, furthermore, my life isn't so exciting
that it requires people to phone me anywhere.

More importantly than crazy ring ding ding ding doo bee doodle doo frog, why do women need to have 24/7 contact with you?

That god damn frog is bloody annoying I saw it god knows how many time in a hour a coupple of weeks ago It was on about four times in every set of adverts on ITV and since then I have hardly watched tv and if I did it was the BBC where you dont get adverts and just to watch Eastenders.

I like how most of the dj's on radio one wont play the song and if they do its only about a minutes worth and aparently JK and Joel made some kid cry the other week cos they didnt play it all the way through

But as for a ringtone I went for a coupple of cool ringtones for my phone and not many people have them infact I havent heard them on any other phone than mine. I've got Magical Trevor theme when it rings and The Hitch Hickers Guide to the Galixy theme which I took off of the original radio series when I have a text message.

I hate crap like that, cell phones are bump phucking people with ring tones, games, and other downloadable crap.

I saw some "joke of the day" thing on TV, first of all the add looked
like it cost $25 dollers to make and in the small print there was the
price of a joke a day... $1

FOR A CRAPPY JOKE! thats robbery.

This is just another part of the systematic rap of culture.

I too dont have a cell phone, if I did, it would replace my home phone on almost never be turned on.

It hasn't gotten here yet but from what you people describe i'm really going to hate it when it does.

Oh, wait, I remember seeing a commercial on TV that had a stupid bird
squeek song accompanied by rather pathetic animation. I think it was
for winterfresh.

I havent had a phone for about 2 years since i broke it. If i was to
get one now, which i proberly wont, my choice of ring tone would have
to be, CIGARO by system of a down, due to its great lyrics that go "My
c**k is much bigger than yours". Would be great when your sitting on a
crowded bus and just seeing other peoples reactions.

As for the crazy frog i havent seen him on tv for awhile, then again i
havent watched much tv recently. I remember the good old days of the
"beling ding ding" tune, it was a page on some site where you had to
watch a racing car without laughing while the sound played.

I've got a Motorola T720. It's a decent phone (also has a frontside
display when it's closed), but I don't need all the bells and whistles.
It's a color-display phone, but I've still got all my settings to black
and white (except for the pictures). My ringtone is "Standard
Continental", which is in fact just beeping. Fine by me. The only
really handy thing is the vibracall-function.

I've got a

Its got a nice camera, colour screen, wap, gprs, plays mp3's as ringtones and it gets used to tell me what time it is. Thats when I can be bothered to look at the time I usually just put my hand in my pocket to check I haven't lost it or to unscrew the arial when i'm board.

I only brought it cos it was on offer and I have yet to top up the ?10 I put on it 7 months ago.

Aye, it's in NZ as well. I thought i'd escaped the moron mobile phone culture for just a brief respite but alas poor yorrick, I hadn't :sad: I do own a mobile phone myself but it doesn't do anything fancy, it's just essential for getting work/organising nights at the pub.

Essential. Yes.
