If so, you would be absolutely disgusted with me. I don't just have the song ring tones that are like my favorite song, though I hear that people get annoyed with those. I have ring tones that would annoy anyone. And you know what? I love all of these ring tones just like my children. Here's a list of what I got: Spider Pig, Spider Pig. A random one of many sheep bleating. BAAAH! Baaaaa! Rick Roll "Never gonna give you up! Never gonna let you down!" Original Batman show theme song Wonder pets "The Phone is ringing!" A laughing baby Celebrate Good Obama from South Park Sesame Street theme Goofy Goober from Spongebob movie I'm downloading more today. Do you have a most hated type of ringtone? I need to know, the more annoying the better!

In Australia we have one called Crazy Frog. It's awful. I'm not a fan of people talking loudly on their phones in public (I've seen some really rude people speaking on the phone while someone's trying to serve them at a counter and there are other people waiting - how rude!) Luckily phones don't usually ring for too long. My son programmed the Monkey Island theme into mine - it was excellent!

It goes; '... ringa dinga ding ding!' and there's a cartoon of a little frog lad on a motorcycle. Cute - but irritating! Sheep would be nice - I'm very fond of sheep because I married a sheep farmer's son.

Oh, is that the one that goes "ding ding ding dong" in a weird voice? If so, I have that one! But it isn't as annoying as the one I have of those sheep, bleating really loud. I even edited on my computer to make it very very loud. I love it.

The Crazy Frog is the "Axel Foley" song with a little frog guy making the dinging noises. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XkHm8uUuT0o hehe

I love ring tones. I agree with you the more annoying the better. I think it is a psychological thing. When you here your phone ring and it is a song you like it just makes you happy. At least that's how I feel. When my phone rings with one of the ring tones that I have chose it puts me in a really good mood. So if other people find them annoying I'm sorry but they put me in a good mood.

I agree, it's only a few seconds which the person has to tolerate it anyway. I have to take a lot more annoying things that people do, why are ringtones one of those top annoying things?

not really. people can choose what ringtone they like but for me it just started to annoy me when it's really loud. loud noises were really annoying. so i guess as long as it's tone down just pretty much enough for the owner to hear, it's no biggie.

I'm one of those loud ring tome people. I want to be able to hear my phone when it rings in my bag. I put my text messages on a soft short ring tone so they don't disturb people when I'm out. Texts aren't usually work related or important. Just stupid things that can wait an hour or two.

At work I can hear classical music, or italian music, or a ringtone from the Simpsons or a creepy voice announcing that you have a call. I try to make my mobile in a silent mode not to annoy other however it seems that others do not bo4ther at all.

Well, it really is a conversation starter. If you are having a conversation and it's really hard because there is a lot of awkward silences, I can show him or her my long collection of ringtones.

Hello, Sheepie! No, I do not have any hated ring tones. I have heavy rock ring tones, like some System of a Down songs. Some people don't like it, because it is too heavy and noisy. Therefore, I am cautious about the mobile phone's volume. I won't like to put it out loud in the middle of the bus, otherwise people will just start ranting and yelling at me, hehe. And, if not, many will give a scared look at me. I scared a woman once, with my mobile phone's ring. It started playing it loud in the middle of the bus and a woman next to me almost jumped. Some of your ring tones are cool! Spider Pig's nice, not annoying. And so is Batman Theme. The sheep must be fun. Respectfully, Munhozmib.

I don't hate them. I know some ringtones can be very annoying. However, "hate" is a very strong word to it. I think I will just dislike it and that's all. Everybody has different taste. Perhaps they enjoy their ringtones except for you. I love China

Film song ringtones are the tones that really irritate me.I don;t hate people with annoying ringtones.Its their way they like it.I think a scary tone like screaming would be good enough to make other people mad.You can also have a ringtone that says you are king to make people mad.

Most ones I hear anymore are the chorus of a song, muffled. I think I might be caught off guard if I heard a sheep in some store I was at, followed by a "hello?". The ringtone we have had that people seemed most annoyed with was the Halloween noise that we set for someone that was seemingly a stalker. So when they called often, it wore on some people.

Hating someone or something about someone talks a lot of energy and effort. I'd rather choose not to listen to their choices and keep on moving. Why others seem to care so much about the silliest things in life truly baffles me. I have a very action packed ringtone set aside just for my wife. Goes something like "mission impossible" theme music. Not exactly like it but similiar nonetheless. I have another different ringtone for my house and then everyone else's ringtone is a normal regular ringtone. I enjoy the variety of ringtones and especially the oldies soundtracks that people put on their phones.

I think hate is a very strong word to use. I do get annoyed hearing certain ring tones. But hate no. People can have a different opinion and likes than me. If they prefer that annoying ring tone. Well, more power to them.

I have no idea why people want those annoying ringtones! What ever happened to just a regular ring?! My son has different tones for different people so he can answer or not without looking. I guess that has some value but it's still stupid and annoying!

I do not really have a ton of ring tones I have downloaded, although the ones that I think would be the most annoying are the ones that my boyfriend did funny voices on and says weird stuff, so it is like sorry everybody, it sounds really weird, hehe.

I wouldn't say hate, but it can be annoying I think. In the end though, to each his own. I say go with whatever ringtone makes you happy!
