azurelunatic: Cordless phone showing a heart.  (phone)
[personal profile] azurelunatic posting in [community profile] metaquotes
So there's this George Takei ring tone, where he says "Oh My!" Just that one line, said in you know, his normal awesome George Takei voice.

I got it the other day, and of course immediately set it as the default ring for my phone. And then I got [livejournal.com profile] midoriseppen to call me so that I could make sure I'd done it right.

My phone started to vibrate in my hand. And then I heard a very faint "Ohhh My!" and then the phone vibrated again, and a louder "Ohhh My!", and it kept going on like that. I was rolling around on my bed giggling uncontrollably.

I'd forgotten that my phone both vibrates and rings audibly when I don't have it silenced (it is always silenced). I hadn't thought about how that combination would sound, and then you throw in the fact that my phone ramps up the audio based upon how long the phone is ringing... and yeah, if I don't get it on the first or second ring, it's so loud and he's so emphatic, that I'm not sure I want to answer the phone, because it seems rude to interrupt him at that point.

Quoted with Permission.
