ParticipantClick on this (Warning: it’s my understanding that if you can hear it, it’s loud, painful, and/or annoying)

You’re not supposed to be able to hear it if you’re over 20. I’m 23 and I can’t hear it, then again, I think I’ve got a headache now..

ParticipantYeah, I’m 15 so I can hear it well. It’s this really annoying high-pitched frequency that is sort of painful. So I guess that some creative British teen got this onto his cell phone and can now send text messages and get calls and stuff because the teachers can’t hear the ringtone.

Participant30. It’s not incredibly annoying to me, but I can hear it. I also have the most annoying ringtone on the planet.

ParticipantDamn it. I thought I had good ears, too. I was looking for it and saw someone posted it in some anime/manga/shite forum. I read down through the post and only a couple people said they couldn’t hear it. People of all ages were saying they could hear it fine.
I could hear a mild pop when it started playing, but that could have been some kind of edit or something. I want to say I can hear it slightly, kind of like when you’re in another room and you can sense that there’s a television on in another, but I think I’m just wanting to say that.
Quote:I also have the most annoying ringtone on the planet.Wasn’t it mentioned on the show, or am I confused? What is it, by the way, because now I’m thinking your ringtone is Jim Carrey in Dumb and Dumber when he says, “Hey, you wanna hear the most annoying sound in the world?… AAAAAANNNNGGGGGHHHHH!!!”. If I had a big-boy cellphone, I’d cut that clip (just the yell), turn it to an mp3 and use it myself.

Participantthe mild pop starts any time u play it, starting anywhere in the file. i figure its yer speakers warming up to that super high frequency or somethin

ParticipantYou wanna know what my ringtone is? Search out Aphex Twin’s album I Care Because You Do, and look for Ventolin. You can find it on iTunes. Hear that annoying tone in the background? That’s my ringer, amplified by about 500%.
Now, why would I have such an annoying ringer? When I’m working in a store, I can’t hear my ringer, because either someone has music going too loud, or, in some stores, the air conditioner is right over your head. So if you’ve got all this shit going and someone’s talking to you, you can’t hear it. I can pick this sound out a mile away. I can be outside and I can hear this ringer. I can also be driving down the road with my windows down and the radio blaring and can still hear it.

Participanthahahah, those tones. fuckin ‘ell mate. id like to hear yer fone go off durin the show
thatd be hilariousJune 18, 2006 at 10:12 pm #11241Frank
ParticipantHell, I put on my headphones and still couldn’t hear anything. I hear a pop when it comes on or when you move it around, but not while it’s playing. Damn, I’m getting old!

ParticipantConsidering my speakers cost 19.99 at Wal-Mart I don’t really think this is a fair test of my hearing.
A better test would be my boss who I have convinced I am deaf……cool little thing that.

ParticipantQuote:You wanna know what my ringtone is? Search out Aphex Twin’s album I Care Because You Do, and look for Ventolin.I actually own that album, but I never grew to recognize the songs by name. I’m going to check right now and you’ll be none the wiser that I did just now…
That’s awesome. I remember it now. I actually really like that song despite the obvious effort to not make anyone like it with that high buzz.

ParticipantIt took me a while to warm up to that one. You almost get used to the tone, and then towards the end, he turns it down a few notes, and all of a sudden, it’s all, “Whoa!” Dude’s just awesome.
