My favorite car alarm was the old one that said, "Help! I am being tampered with!" Neighborhood kids used to set it off just to hear that.
Cars should be programmed to listen to other car alarms. So when a car says, "Help! I am being tampered with!" other cars would say, "Hey, Bob, what's going on? Someone help Bob! He's being tampered with!"

And then you could play

telephone with them. It'd be fun.
Love the single ring. I don't hear everything, but it rarely embarrasses.
Mine plays the Rohan theme, the Angel theme music, or Crying Game (for one very special caller). Problem is, especially at the lower volume, they just lodge in my subconscious, filed under "Better than Muzak."
I've noticed more and more cell phones that have an old-school phone ring. Startles the fuck out of me.
When mine's not on vibrate, it plays the Angel theme, the OC theme, or Layla. But it's pretty rare.
My cell phone is just set up to ring, a plain old regular ringtone, no fancy-schmancy movie or television themes, or anything like that. When I don't want it to ring (which is most of the time), I just shut the phone off.
Crying Game (for one very special caller).
That's quite a special caller. Does he/she know that?
I believe we've never had the ringtone conversation before. Go us!
Does he/she know that?
He doesn't, but his friends do. It's possible I should not delight in his torment so, but ... eh. A girl's gotta have her fun somehow.
Over the weekend I bought a MIDI keyboard. So I googled for MIDI, trying to find songs to load into GarageBand. I was surprised to find that most of the matches were for cellphone ringtones.
Love the single ring. I don't hear everything, but it rarely embarrasses.
My old phone had a single beep setting which was great. I still haven't figured out something that satisfies on the new one. All of their telephone ring sounds are very artificial sounding, or overdone, or something. So for now, it's Fat Albert saying "Hey, hey, hey."
