    Some rat had the Scotts Porridge Oats tune blaring down the road at 6 this morning.

    Had to switch something else on to get the tune out of my head.

    Changed again last night to the Charlies Angels theme and selected tones depending on who is calling (a good friend has the Banana Splits theme.) Changed my work phone now as well...

You should have seen the other commuters faces when the alarm went off, he pulled this huge old phone out of the plastic bag and bellowed down the phone that he would shortly be arriving and that dinner had better be on the table for him
    Well done that man

    I absolutely cannot bear novelty/music ringtones. I might resurrect the 'little things that annoy you...' thread, just to add this to it. Gggrrrrrrrr.

    If a pimp rings and they have a gig that is of relevance they will leave a message, if they don't it is a fishing call.

    We have a new phone system at work, one of these VOIP thingies, which also has a web interface so you can do wonderful things with it. As everyone around me has discovered, me too now, you can upload MP3s to the phone via the web interface so everyone now has a 'unique' ringtone. Everything from the theme to Knightrider via Pippi Langstrumpf cna b heard blaring out all day. (We've also worked out how to hack them by sending HTML to them and using other peoples phones...)
    If I worked at your place I'd bring an AK47 to work and spray you all.
