"They drive me absolutely bonkers no matter where I am."

Transcript

"They are annoying, they waste all your credit and they are stupid. I am talking about ring tones. One of the things I hate most in this world is mobile ring tones. For those of you who don't know what they are here is a description.

(sound of a phone ringing with ringtone)

Ring tones are those annoying jingles that come out of mobile phones whenever the phone rings. They drive me absolutely bonkers no matter where I am. They can come in the form of a popular music tune or even a television or movie tune. But no matter what the ring tone is I hate them all.

So why do I hate them so much? I hate them because they are pointless and really annoying. They cost way too much and disturb other people. When ever I am in a public place having a nice peaceful time, I am disturbed by a ring tone going off and leaving an annoying little jingle into my head. That's not all. They have hundreds of adverts which drive me insane. I think it's a rip-off.

One thing that really puzzles me about ring tones is why people buy them. Why would someone pay money for a little jingle that comes out of a mobile phone? It makes no sense.

A lot of people are going to disagree with this story. But personally I hate them. I say ban them all."

"I think this is a brilliant story, and I quite agree with everything he says. Jingles drive me bonkers as well, especially when there are so many about, and you don't know whose phone is ringing. For whom the bell tolls!"
T Thomas, St Clears.
