It's weird but at one point in the last 10 years, society just decided that everyone uses vibrate now.
Not boomers, they love the constant dings and obnoxious ringtones to be as loud as possible.
don't forget the type sounds
Let’s be honest with this one. Most are probably just too lazy or inept feeling to figure out how to turn them off for themselves. The phone companies seem to have their software install with max volume and haptics turned on by default.
...and the call back ring tones. For about 5 years i hated calling one person in particular because id have to listen to Hey, Soul Sister every..fricken....time.
I would never call that person
I don't get that at all. I assume it's partly some ADHD or autism or what do i know. I had a girlfriend who would unbuckle her seatbelt 5min before we arrived and the car would just beep louder and louder and whatever. It drove me insane. I know it's just a minor thing, but i never understood how you couldn't be bothered with that. Especially because it's very easy to not do that. I never got used to it, when she did it when i was driving, i would just stop and wait until she buckled up again.
I'm not a boomer but do love when my wife calls and everyone gets to hear the ever-classic 'Helo Moto' ringtone.
When i was around 14, around the nokia 3210 times, we all made our own ringtones.we would download cheat sheets of music we liked and put it in and suddenly: friends theme song. One of my friend made a voice recording where he sang: "Telephone... Pick up. Telephone... Pick up". Even now this is the funniest ringtone i have ever heard, and i had it as my own ringtone until my phone died. Even now when i hear a phone i can only think: telephone.... Pick up!
My dad's ringtone is a motorcycle engine revving at max volume, and he never silences it. He also just lets it ring when he doesn't want to answer.
We decided that ringtone were bullshit exactly when we had the option to have any sound imaginable for free.
Before that...
that works great if you keep your phone in your pocket. if you don't...
Women in my experience point blank refused to keep their phones in their pocket and instead put it in the purse along with everything else so whenever it rings (assuming they even hear it in there) it's always a mad dash to get it out before the person on the other end dies of old age.
I’ll apologize first: Sorry, kind internet stranger, you walked right in one of my pet peeves. (Now I feel morally justified in starting my rant with a level of emotional involvement that is totally and admittedly unjustified)
WOMEN’S POCKETS ARE A F****ING JOKE! Have you ever tried putting anything more that the glimmering sparkle of a summer night in a woman pants pocket? It either falls right off or tries to stab the kidney once the poor girl sits down. Usually both.
Because pants need to be stupidly skinny and form fitting, not made for comfort or for carrying anything!
My toddler’s pockets (2 years old) are bigger than mine!
/end rant, feel free to ring me up for extra rants on the subject
Yeah I was gonna say "what women have pockets"
I feel like i've become highly attuned to the sound of a phone and can hear it anywhere in a room. The disadvantage is of course a lingering stress whenever i get confused with a similar sound or someone elses phone
