Who uses ringtones, seriously?

It's letting other people know you're cool, is all. It's a mating call. A boomin' system. The kids love it. "Rude" is not a concern.

My friend N8 has a program that allows him to make his own ringtones.

Yup, me too. They can be comic. Like "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy" -- I like that one.

My ringtone is the Canadian National Anthem.

There is a limited amount/type of studying I can do with certain media distractions. For example, I can outline with sports on TV for example, because outlining doesn't require as much concentration and I am only marginalyl interested in sports. Also, I have learned to study with music out of self god damn defense but it has to be fairly smooth. But I cannot read law talking stuff with distractions - it's to fucking lame/boring/difficult.

I find intelligible live human talking and random loud noises (AS FOUND IN THE COMPUTER LAB RIGHT NOW) the most distracting.

You guys my face is BRIGHT PINK. I think I have windburn or something.

I do like the idea of ringtones, but I'm too self-conscious to ever use them outside of my apartment or car, and it's not like I'm going to remember to switch my phone to "ring" every time I come home or get in the car.

You're damn tootin' sonny.

Is that John Michael Montgomery? He looks a lot like the picture of Bob Seger on the cover of the new Bob Seger record.

AGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH
first my face is burnt off and now my EYES??!?!?!

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:16 (seventeen years ago) link

I've had Sexual Healing as my ringtone for years. Not 'cause it's cool, I just don't want to pay money for a new ringtone.

ha ha, Manda. I have a zit on my face!
When were you last outside?

Don't ask me how I knew what this looked like, I don't remember.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:17 (seventeen years ago) link

I like my ringtone, but I have no idea what it is. It's obviously a famous melody. Maybe you guys will be able to identify it.

― Calico (calico), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:18 (seventeen years ago) link

That's Michael McDonald in the pic I posted.

Speaking of Bob Seger, though, I was at my cousin's house for a family dinner a few weeks ago, and my mom was talking about how great the iTunes Store is ... "Except the other day," she said, "I was trying to find some music by Bob Seger ... for a friend." She didn't actually mean to pause like that -- it was in fact for a friend (she claimed not to have ever heard of Bob Seger before) -- but I can guarantee you there was much ribbing.

I told her that she was probably misspelling his name, that it's just one E, not two like Pete.

(Dan, I'm guessing you meant Michael McDonald. John Michael Montgomery is a clean-shaven dimple-faced country dude.)

― jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:22 (seventeen years ago) link

Why did I think there was a "John" at the beginning of that guy's name? I would say I'm retarded but come on, this is classic rock we're talking about.

Yeah, come on Yacht Rockers! I'm a little disappointed in you all.

He is so happy!

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:25 (seventeen years ago) link

He also has no eyeballs. Or soul.

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:25 (seventeen years ago) link

Somebody photoshop some glowing red demon eyes on him.

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:25 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, Seger does not look good these days:

I was last outside at 8AM. I have been in a tiny, drafty room with a space heater for the last 4 hours. I wish I had a ski mask.

why is his face that scary color?

Christopher Cross is cute.

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:29 (seventeen years ago) link

I'll go sailing with him any day. Or the old him, anyway.

I was the president of the Michael McDonald Lack of Appreciation Society for a long time. My association with that association cannot be discussed in a public forum, as it may incriminate me in several non-violent crimes.

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:29 (seventeen years ago) link

Jenny OTM, of course.

He looks a little like Billy Corgan there. Remember when he was also cute?

My unironic love of AM Gold is no joke, people.

OK what about this crooner:

My friend 3van was trying to convince me that Michael McDonald has got some serious soul. He's an unironic yacht rocker, I think.

― JordanC (JordanC), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:34 (seventeen years ago) link

"Sailing" is a really pretty song. There's no way around that.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:34 (seventeen years ago) link

Dude, I love it too. But I cannot stomach the soulless sounds of Michael McDonald.

Gerry Rafferty?

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:35 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh, 3van.

― jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:35 (seventeen years ago) link

McDonald is a great backup vocalist, or with the Doobies. A songwriter, he ain't.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:36 (seventeen years ago) link

Gerry Rafferty?

I don't think so. And it's not Gordon Lightfoot, either. The annals of lite rock beardos are to vast to take wild guesses like that.

Badass track by my man Christopher Cross. If you play close attention... this song is actually about espionage. Can someone say "Swordfish" or "Keyser Soze" from the "Usual Suspects" ? Nothing is what it seems. Scope the lyrics reeeeeeeallll close... LOL

I'm stumped!

Bob Welch?

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Thursday, 7 December 2006 20:38 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, I think that one may be a little too hard... I'm trying to think of a hint that doesn't totally give it away.

Bob Welch?

The former Oakland A who won the 1990 Cy Young Award and the last major-league pitcher to amass more than 25 wins in a single season?
