Christ, I must be in a bad mood today – I think I got up from the wrong side of the bed. Two rants in the same day!
The subject of this rant, as you can see from the title, is the Nokia tune. You know the one. It’s the default ringtone on any Nokia when it comes out of the box. It’s the one that the annoying twat from The Fast Show (I think) took the piss out of:
Shouting: ” ‘allo – yeah, I’m in the cinema!”
Listening for the tune when a mobile phone rings is the easiest way to spot the dingus that knows nothing about their phone. They want a phone to make phone calls. They don’t even send text messages. Know what’s most annoying about them? When they are walking through a shopping centre and their phone rings. There it is. That fucking tune AGAIN! The dingus retrieves their phone from their pocket/purse/arse and stands looking at it. What the fuck are you doing? Enjoying the tune? Trying to figure out which button to press? ANSWER THE FUCKING PHONE YOU WANKER!
Ban it. Ban it now. Ban it for ever.
There’s a guy in the next office that has a company phone. It’s a Nokia 1100 which is probably the worst phone Nokia have ever made. Guess which ring tone he has. Now guess what loudness it’s set at. Now guess how often the phone rings. Yep that fucking tune every five minutes at full volume.
Now, you might think I want to take that phone and ram it up his arse. No, I don’t. I want to take that phone and punch it right into his chest. He’s old anyway and obviously has no fucking clue about the mental state of his colleagues.
Die Nokia Tune. DIE!
ANSWER THE FUCKING PHONE YOU WANKER!
That made me laugh! And yes I know the tune, i have mine on vibrate only, i like the feeling of that…
Vibration without noise :)
All the tones become quite annoying when used for a long time. Some are, of course, unbearable from the first day.
