I should use a really wet flatulence sound for a ring tone.

 

Picture a party with friends eating out at the dinner table, my phone goes off, and I say "excuse me" and reach behind me, and there isn't an eyebrow that isn't raised.

Even better -- Would be a way to text any friend and have THAT sound go off on their phone as the text alert...

 

That could be interesting!

Oh my. That opens up a whole realm of possibilities for livening up a business meeting...

The first time I demoed an Ensoniq Mirage, the sales guy had a sample of a Marilyn Chambers movie soundtrack loaded. So, with your concept you could... Oh never mind. You get the idea.

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

I do not believe the NFL will stop using that technology when fans return to stadiums.

Similar concept but totally different application: many many years ago, at a bar that I frequented, was a waitress who was a massive crush for me (and most of the other guys and some of the girls). She was built for comfort rather than for speed and knew it, and had no trouble with giving back as good as she got with the crowd she had to put up with. Having seen her break a beer bottle over the head of a customer who got too handsy (more than once), the regulars gave her plenty of space.

 

She had one of those wall-mounted bottle openers like you see in bars, attached to a riveted clamp that she fastened to her belt in the back so it was just above her bum. You didn't notice it at first, but you surely did after you handed her a bottle to open and she put it behind herself, squatted a little, made some faces, and then at the **psshhhht!** looked relieved... and handed the bottle back with a big smile.

I always love the dolts who use the traditional desk or wall telephone ringer on their cell phone.

As if they are going to pull a Western Electric 500 out of their trousers to answer it.

We all know someone we'd assign this to as a ringtone:

My sister has an excellent ringtone for my other sister. Its a "Despicable Me" Minion in fire-truck mode, going "Bee-doh! Bee-doh! Bee-doh!" Its a bit disturbing, but we're a dedicated Addams family. :/
