Firstly ringtones. What's wrong with "ring ring", please have some dignity and remove all those fucking annoying noises from your phones.

Secondly as has been mentioned, that fucking demented frog thing. I can begin to understand how people would be stupid enough to want to imitate a song they like through a series of beeping noises, but this frog demon has been created solely for the purpose of a ringtone?! What the hell is that about?

Thirdly, and this is the worst of today's three "Fuck Off"'s, in a world where the ringtone chart is outselling the singles chart, where kids spend their money on making a mobile phone even more annoying, some genius has turned the Frog noise into a song. They've taken the mind-boggling progression of song to ringtone, and reversed it!

If I were religious I'd be asking some serious questions of the big man right now.

One of my friends has jungle sounds - birds chirping and whatnot. Confuses me every time.

Fuck off, redneck jackoffs who drive around in pickup trucks taller than my house, blaring Toby Keith, and sporting a "Support the Troops" yellow ribbon magnet. Apparently, guzzling gas and perpetuating our dependence on MidEast oil are the best ways to "Support the Troops".

Fuck off you self-righteous jingoistic shitheads.

God. I hate them so much.

Indeed! I challenge anyone who thinks foul of the Beatle's output after they split to listen to that song and not be converted...
