    Default Assigned Ringtones

    Do any of your friends or family on your cell phone have their own assigned ringtone? A friend of mine has her son's calls set to ring Stewie from Family Guy saying "mommy" over and over again. It's hilarious. This is the clip from the show (FYI: clean). [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNkp4QF3we8"]Mommy, Mommy, Mommy...[/ame]

    On mine, my brother's ringtone is the theme song from an Irish comedy called Father Ted, while DH's is "Moon River" from Breakfast At Tiffany's (DH has a big crush on Audrey Hepburn).

    Yup, assigned rings here too

    I haven't downloaded any songs in to the phone, so I don't know the names of the songs...

    Old Man - a romantic melody (oddly enough, HE has the same ringtone for me)

    Mom - provincial phone

    Ex - frogs (because Diva loves frogs, and she calls me when she is over there)

    Outlaws - big band (because as Diva put it "they're old" )

    school - bells

    I am not going to give everyone in my phone a personalized ring, but I need to know when these people are calling.
    I can't be out of money... I still have checks left!

    Old Lady to the Old Man

    Anything work related has been given the theme from Jaws.

    My grandson has the Batman theme song.

    My dad gets the Coronation Street theme tune.

    My normal ringtone is either:

    -"Putting on the Ritz" from Young Frankenstein

    -the voice of Eddie Izzard, saying "Your phone is ringing. Your phone is ringing. Your phone is ringing and ringing and ringing, and annoying everyone around you. Please answer your phone or risk annoying everyone within..." (you get the idea)

    Love ringtones!

    If my DH calls me from work, it's Gilligan's Island. If he calls me from his cell, it's Mission: Impossible.

    My son's ringtone is X-Files and my DD's is The Office.

    Whenever I get a call from a telemarketer, I assigned it a duck quacking ringtone ~ I still have to download a silent ringtone for them

    I have the theme song from the Benny Hill show for my buddy. He walks around work really fast like he is really busy even if he isn't.

    Ceashels gets one - Sting, "Mad About You"
    If you could kick in the pants the person responsible for your problems, you wouldn't be able to sit for a month.

    Did you know that a 4 year student paying $20,000/year who finances their education graduates with over $103,000 in debt to start? But a student who works and pays cash and takes 6 years to graduate ends with $6,300 in their pocket! So much for "getting a head start by financing!"

    I had a Pink Razr that I had downloaded a ton of songs, but when my phone went out I lost them and never downloaded new ones. Right now, I just have a Christmas ringtone and of course the LSU Fight Song! Geaux Tigers!

    I don't have a whole lot of assigned ringtones, but here are the ones I have:
    My mom - the Wicked Witch of the West song from the Wizard of Oz (stems from a long-running joke)
    My brother - end credits from Dexter
    My dad - the Andy Griffith Show theme
    Work - the Imperial March from Star Wars
    A good friend - the True Blood theme
    Another friend - old Star Trek theme
    My ex - While I don't have a ringtone for him at the moment, it was once Cell Block Tango from Chicago ("He had it coming...he had it coming...").

    Current default ringtone - "Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me." When college football season starts back up, the default will be "Roll Tide Roll".

    My phone is so "basic" that I can't assign ringtones.

    Hehehehe...my old cell had diff ring tones d/l'ed to it but this new one....I can just transfer the mp3 to my cell via the microSD card and then assign it anyone. Haven't set them up b/c I haven't decided on who gets what yet.

    The only downfall of assigned ring tones - once others catch on to who its assigned to, certain people feel its alright to blurt out 'Hey your BF/mom/sister etc is calling you'. No privacy there.

    DF has 'Bad Girlfriend' by Theory Of A Deadman assigned for me. Should I be concerned?!

    Well, he made my ringtone the Dexter theme...he likes Dexter, I like Dexter. It could be worse...I could have given him the one with Fred Sanford saying "Shut up, dummy!"
