What's your ringtone?
If you have no cell, what would it be if you had one?

Mine's "Also Spracht Zarathustra."

1. Do You Realize - Flaming Lips
although the best ringtone i ever heard was in a bookstore. this guy's phone started shrieking "INCOMING!!! INCOMING!!!" Then he answered it. I laughed for days.

3. Silent/vibrate
Not to flame, honestly, but personally, I find ringtones annoying (I also hate answering my phone at home, FWIW). I just wish I could set my phone to just flash its lights at me rather than vibrate, which also makes a small amount of noise.

16. Best. Ringtone. EVAR.
I loooove that music. It makes me feel all happy inside, because I associate it so strongly with the show, which was/is my favorite show ever.

15. Not many choices on mine
I have one of those el cheapo prepaid deals through Net10. I dunno what the name of my ringtone is--some randomly generated music or another.

I wish Net10 would allow us to download ringtones in my area. :mad:

and I'm not interested in cutesy ringtones.

Sorry.

24. "No Phone" by Cake for everyone except 1 person
Edited on Thu Sep-06-07 07:58 PM by malta blue
Little MB was shocked to learn that it was an actual song and has usurped my CD now.

The one person who is "special" enough to get her own ringtone is my BFF who lives in Cal. She gets "I'm Your Pusher" by Ice-T because when we met, that song was playing...

26. Icky Thump by The White Stripes
It can get some funny looks because it starts out with the lyrics.

For a long time I had it set to The Godfather when my dad called.

I'm kind of thinking about changing mine now, but I can't settle on a good one to change it to.

Edited on Fri Sep-07-07 07:48 AM by Malikshah
They are America's premiere Dragapella group, who boast among its members Ivy-League educated lovelies, one of whom worked for the Clinton Administration :)

I signed up for the e-mails, and downloaded it; took a while and my partner's help, but I finally got it to work. :)

Rent a homo for your party
You will have a barrel of fun
Rent a homo for your party
Every party should have one...etc.

47. Godsmack - Awake ...
I also have:

Nickelback's "Rockstar",
Puddle of Mudd's "She Fucking Hates Me",
Buckcherry's "Crazy Bitch"
Finger Eleven's "Paralyzer",
Korn's "Coming Undone",
Daughtry's "Wanted, Dead or Alive"
Drowning Pool's "The Game"

A couple of those don't get used much, though, because of the language.
