From this day forth the playing of mobile phone ring tones in public places will be punishable by law. (That is going thro the whole selection of different ring tones just to be annoying). The guilty party is entitled to chose from a selection of punishments, including- hands stappled together, or being locked in a lift for 3 days with Peter Stringfellow (or other irratating celebs)etc.

Welcome, Zany-J. You're a Brit, I take it? Hmmm. The other night I went to a party to send a friend of mine off to Israel. Under any other circumstances (I mean, going to Israel is not fun right now) I would have happily shut him in a lift with Stringfellow (and his mullet) because his mobile tone played "Morning" from the Peer Gynt Suite by Grieg. I vote for this law! Mobile phones should go "bring-bring" like they used to!

Mayb I like to have a moan cos i'm British. I'm not saying that mobile phones are bad - that's a different debate altogether. I just hate having someone elses ring-tone wurling around my head all day especially when it is a tune i dislike. Does anyone else agree/disagree or have any good ideas for punishments?

A couple of days there was this 8-year old girl in the same train as me, who got called. She had "Hit me baby one more time..." by B*tchney Sl*tears as a ringtone..... YUK!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hate the song itself, but the ringtone is even worse. And besides that, what does an 8-year old need a mobile phone for??????? To tell mommy that Tammy has been a naughty girl????????

You should be able to record music as a ringer. I can see it now - "I'M GOING OFF THE RAILS ON A CRAZY TRAIN!!!" playing at random moments. http://www.dumblaws.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

Sorry about your mobile phone experience Phreak. I hope you don't have to get that same train everyday!
Yesterday, the nurse at work locked her mobile in the drugs cupboard. I could hear it beeping thro the day when it received a message. (P*ssed me off as I couldn't work out where it was coming from)- Still, LOL when she discovered all her text messages were from those annoying companies who advertise ring-tones. (She had been gloating that she had sooo many friends)-he he!
By the way-I'm not that evil to larf at just any1- I really really dislike this woman!

You can, Aclu. You can have any sound you like on some phones.
Zany, I heard about a company in the Middle East which (this was in the early-ish days of mobile telecoms) offered this service to its wealthy clients: If you have a business dineer/lunch/whtever, they call you... just for the vanity of it. I presume thay have a little conversation with you, in which you make all kinds of important decisions and generally make yourself look like a busy livewire. People lapped it up!

But like when you see someone in a car, trying to make like a really sharp turn with ONE HAND because they're using the other one to talk on their goddamn cell phone. It pisses me off

People who talk on a cell phone while driving should be immediately pulled over and the phone inserted in a non talking body orifice, sans lubricant of any sort.
In public, in the middle of the road, with all traffic stopped so that everyone else can watch the proceedings as a warning to other Yakaholics who can't seem to be able to breathe without the aid of a cellular device.
I HATE CELL PHONES!
in case you hadn't noticed by now

Well, I don't mind the things, but I hate irresponsible drivers. And bad ringtones.
What happened to us? We all had fixed-line phones, they all looked the same, they all went "brring-brring" (or "brrrrrrrrinngg" in the US) and we used them when necessary. Nowadays there's a lot of people who can't walk from one side of the street to the other without having a conversation en route. The fixed-line phones have gone funny too, they look like Mickey Mouse or a boat or anything except a phone. Why can't we have things that look like what they are?

Ok so i used to be Zany-J but cut a long story short im just Zany now! This is courtesy of ViZ! the one an only..........
The most impressive display of multi-task driving was achieved by Powdered Egg Salesman Mel Henshaw (GB) at the wheel of his Vauxhall Cavalier 2l Gli. On February 12th 1992, whilst driving at 112 mph in freezing fog on the M1 in South Yorkshire, he simultaneously shaved, ate a sandwich, dictated a letter, read a road map, filled in his expenses, re-tuned the radio, took his jacket off, smoked a cigarette, and spoke to his wife on his mobile phone.
....So now you know. ok addmittedly it all lies but what would Dizbuster do to this guy??! It makes me wonder..hmm *wondering*
