The Crazy Frog I thought that the Nokia ringtone was bad until this one arrived.

The Crazy Frog You have all seen and heard it. Its advertised on the TV every 2 minutes. The one with a strange looking animated frog, wearing goggles and a helmet, and with very deformed looking genitalia! The ringtone itself is way beyond irritating. It is the sound of someone imitating a 2-stroke moped in an annoying high-pitched voice. It drills into your skull and makes you want to chew your hand off in rage. It had actually been doing the rounds on the web in one form or another for several years. But recently a ringtone company picked up on it, and the advertising started. Now hardly a day goes by without some tedious little twat that has just discovered it, playing it to his friends and thinking that he is on the cutting edge of mobile-based humour. These are the sort of people that think that they are wacky and zany, real party-people. consider The next person that I hear with that ringtone is going to cleaning their own excrement out of the keypad after it has been retrieved the deepest recesses of their intestines. Will this horror ever end? For those of you that want to know where this God awful noise came from and want to do something about it then I suggest you get in touch with a certain Daniel Malmedahl, of Gothenburg in Sweden. This is the creep that recorded the sound and he has more sounds to offer. I urge someone to take action before he can wreak more aural abuse on the nation.
Childish, irritating ringtones, the feckless morons that use them, but especially the 'Crazy Frog' can just Ram it!
I have a hammer and I'm coming for you all.

My ringtone is Bad Moon Rising, by Creedence. I don't think I've ever heard the "Crazy Frog" tone.

Consider yourself lucky. I have the theme frome "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" myself.

LOL! My cell phone is a 3 watt Motorola. Those little digital jobbies won't get a tower out here unless you are nearly in town. I usually have to use a directional antenna mounted on a mast (28') to get a signal. (I'm on an oil rig in Eastern Montana right now).

I think every ringtone is obnoxious. I don't know if people think their "unique" tones are cute or what, but it really isn't that hard to figure out it is your cellphone that is ringing when a cellphone goes off. I don't understand why anyone who carries their cellphone in their pocket just doesn't use vibrate.
