I got over this several phones ago, but it was fun picking out tones at the time. If the choir director of the church called the ringtone was the Hallelujah Chorus.
Currently just one ringtone. Isn’t the one I wanted, but my wife wouldn’t let me use that – said it sounded too much like hers. I had to pick something way different. Theme from The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.
I remember when there were websites that would charge to get new ringtones for your phone. The fact I’ve haven’t heard mention of them for well over 15 years at this point makes me hope that that’s one rip-off people got over a while ago
I have special ring tones for my husband, my daughters, my boss, my siblings, and a few close friends. Unfortunately, they’re all songs that I have on my MP3 list so I have to pause a moment when one of their songs come on.
The Count’s text ring tone is a crowing rooster. Always good for a head turn or intro for an off color comment about what is in the pocket in public places. The Count particularly likes to text the cell in movies during long, drawn out periods of yawner dialogue or most of all, soupy love scenes. No kidding.
I don’t think using childhood insults as ringtones is a great idea. I sure don’t need any of my brothers and sisters hearing ‘Hey, Bigfoot’, when I call them.
Back in the forties, Fibber McGee of the “Fibber McGee and Molly” radio show, invented a doorbell with personalized rings. It would make a different sound depending on who pressed the button. He was so far ahead of his time.

Cafe caffeine is a great coffee shop name and funny.
Bringing your cat to a coffee shop and getting him a cup is also funny

Cafe Caffiene is misspelled. Should be caffeine, no?

Many years ago someone recognised the ringtone I’d assigned to a work colleague – they didn’t think it nice as it was called “The Buffoon”

Dozens of ring tones out there and I use the old fashioned telephone ring sound, I guess I’m out of date.

I would like my ringtone to be the whistle from the wolf in the second Puss in Boots movie. If only to freak people out the rare time I get a call.

No wonder you’re such a loser, Jon, you have the worst timing in the whole world that gets you beaten up over the most trivial things.

I love the coffee advertiser outside. Usually only see those for mattress stores and such. Rather than places you go for a $5 sit and drink.

FWIW, my boss’s ringtone is Darth Vader’s march. I’ve been using it for at least 10 years. I don’t think he’s found out yet. :-)
