Ringtones
You can tell a lot about a person by the ringtone they choose (but mostly it tells you they’re receiving a phone call). Everyone wants an original tone to show how original they themselves are. I’m always like, whoa, that guy must be a super awesome dude because his ringtone is some garbled midi-tune barely recognizable as an Uncle Kracker “hit”. Oh man, that girl is hella-dope with her old-timey telephone ring - I feel like I’ve stepped back into the 1800’s and my great-great-grandma’s cell phone is ringing. I love it when someone gets embarrassed by the ring they chose; apologizing for who they are. If you don’t want me to know that you secretly love the Smurfs in the middle of our board meeting, hide your shame in a standard ring. I’ll still respect you, I’ll think you’re boring, but I’ll respect you. Yo, I’ve gotta run now, the Darth Vader Theme Song beckons (that’s right, my ring let’s all you mothers know that I’m a bad ass (and that I like Star Wars (original trilogy), so I’m a bit of a dork, too). da da daaa dada daaaa dada daaaaaaa “Hi Mom”
