Argh! What is it with this advert coming on during every single ad-break? Gah! It's so bloody annoying. I can't stand it. But do you know the thing that really annoys me? They're making a mockery of one of the best movie theme tunes of all time!

Not exactly an unusual opinion either.

And who thought of making a cartoon frog with a great big cock swinging away? What the hells that all about? Frogs don't have cocks!
Posted by Brock, around 23rd May 2005:
 
Except french people, who just are cocks.

Obviously.

Apparently that frog is making a mint for jamster though (By that i mean lots of money, not a big polo). So I guess the last laugh is on us.
However, some of the other ads about "enjoying your body's sound system" make the jamster ones look sophisticated by comparison.
Posted by Doctor Lucid_DUPE1, around 23rd May 2005:
 
I don't understand. What is the frog? What is Jamster? What does it have to do with us? Or did Percy mis-spell hamster?

Beefy and Lamby
This, however, is the greatest advert on TV at the moment.
Posted by WarHead, around 23rd May 2005:
 
The thing that really annoys me is that I wasn't the guy who thought up the idea of selling ring tones to idiot kids with more money than sense.
Posted by Alfie_DUPE1, 23rd May 2005:
 
Over 8 million copies of that frog downloaded. At £3 each?
Wankers.
Posted by perclissigi, 23rd May 2005:
 
Exactly.
Cuntbags.
And you can't get away from it... it's EVERYWHERE!!
I hope something really really horrible happens to whoever is in charge of jamster.
Posted by Brock, 23rd May 2005:
 
For all the prevalence of teh adverts, I have never, ever, heard it as a ring tone.

Are people instantly ashamed of it as soon as they buy it? Or do I not mix with kids anymore?
Posted by Alfie_DUPE1, 23rd May 2005:
 
Actually that is very true.
I have never heard it vomiting out of an actual mobile.
Posted by perclissigi, 23rd May 2005:
 
Of course you don't mix with kids anymore Brock, you remember what the judge told you.
Posted by Brock, 23rd May 2005:
 
That was 'mixing up kids insides'. Not sure that is the same thing.
Posted by WarHead, 23rd May 2005:
 
I bet Brock's got the little dinosaur instead.
Posted by Brock, 23rd May 2005:
 
Musical ring tones are for cunts. I had the one on my last phone that sounded like an old telephone with a bell (although it rang the US single tone way, sadly). It was great. None of that electronic happy fucking cunty-bollocks music for me.

I have the least offensive one I can find on my new (Nokia) phone, but if anyone knows a ring tone download for it that sounds like a proper phone, please let me know.

Nokia tune=
*diddle-der-der, diddle-der-der, diddle-der-der-der*

"HELLO? YES? THAT'S RIGHT. I'M A CUNT!"
Posted by Grim..., 23rd May 2005:
 
My phone has the beginning of 'Baby Got Back'.
Posted by Alfie_DUPE1, 23rd May 2005:
 
If the one on your nokia is the one they used in Trigger Happy TV then you are indeed a cunt.

And yeah, a proper phone ring would be best.
Posted by Brock, 23rd May 2005:
 
That IS the Nokia tune, you penis. And mine is the nearest I can get to (crazy fucking idea, I know) that of a phone ringing.
Posted by Alfie_DUPE1, 23rd May 2005:
 
I know it is. But you seemed to be saying that you were using it. When it's shit.
Posted by Alfie_DUPE1, 23rd May 2005:
 
Not that I would image you get many calls. So it doesn't matter what ringtone you use.
Posted by Brock, 23rd May 2005:
 
Not that I would image you get many calls

What? Do you always visualise things in a purely pictorial way, Penfold?

Cock knocker.

:)
Posted by Alfie_DUPE1, 23rd May 2005:
 
Yes. Pictorial. Hence the word VISUALise.

Dickwad.
Posted by Brock, 23rd May 2005:
 
That was my point, you yappy little bespectacled chihuauha, I suspect you meant to use the word "imagine".

Unless you really do think about sitting there and watching me for hours to see if my phone rings, you mental-stalker freak, you.

Not, of course, that you would ever admit to fucking up. Ooooooh no.
Posted by Alfie_DUPE1, 23rd May 2005:
 
Yes I mistyped Imagine.

But your sentence asking me if I visualise things pictorially is like asking me if I hear things aurally or smell things nasally.

No shit sherlock.
Posted by Alfie_DUPE1, 23rd May 2005:
 
Do you wank needley?

or should that be needle-like :P
Posted by Alfie_DUPE1, 23rd May 2005:
 
And I hardly think mistyping a word can be described as "fucking up", just a "mistake".
A fuck up is what you see in the mirror each morning.
"Mistake" is what they wrote on your birth certificate.
Posted by Brock, 23rd May 2005:
 
But if you were visualising it (purely pictorially, as I said; ie just as an image of light and it's reflection) - and this is my point - HOW THE FUCK WOULD YOU KNOW MY PHONE WAS RINGING, CUNTFACE, THERE'S NO FUCKING SOUND!!!!111111oneoenoeoeoeoejuanonecuntface

So no, it is not the same. You can visualise a scenario (with movement and sound), you can't create an image with sound, or it stops being just an image.

30 - love. My serve still, I believe.
Posted by Brock, 23rd May 2005:
 
Weasling and worming makes it a fuck up. A mistake goes along the lines of "Oh, I meant 'imagine".

(up your bum, Potter)
Posted by Grim..., 23rd May 2005:
 
My mobile has a visual alert when it's ringing if the sound is turned off.
I think most do nowadays.
Posted by Brock, around 24th May 2005:
 
It would be hit or miss if that showed in an image though, wouldn't it.

Also, I always have my phone in my pocket rather than putting it down on every horizontal surface just to affirm that I have one to strangers. People usually never even know I have it on me until it rings.

Obviously we should, however, assume it never rings, what with me having no friends and all. Although I have to confess to not being able to remember the last time I used all the free minutes, but that's more because I'm a miserable fecker than cos I have no friends.
Posted by ellipse, around 24th May 2005:
 
does it vibrate in your pocket?
Posted by Brock, around 24th May 2005:
 
But of course.

Posted by Alfie_DUPE1, 24th May 2005:
 
"A mistake goes along the lines of "Oh, I meant 'imagine"."

you mean like me typing "Yes I mistyped Imagine."?
Posted by Alfie_DUPE1, 24th May 2005:
 
"not being able to remember the last time I used all the free minutes, but that's more because I'm a miserable fecker than cos I have no friends"

You could ring numbers at random, just to use the minutes up. Share the misery.

I don't actually care, I was just asking. I wouldn't want it to miss out on the painful death that awaits the other Jamsters.

I have never seen any of these animals. To me, you all sound like the rantings of the deranged scratching at the walls and biting the heads off rats.

And you dare to call me the one who's departing his touch with reality.

I love it.
Posted by WarHead, 26th May 2005:
 
Apparently it's No.1 in the singles chart. They were discussing it on BBC Breakfast this morning. There was some tart saying it's driving her nuts because the ad's on twice on every commericial break on every commercial TV station and some bozo saying it's typical of the Engish charts that they have novelty songs at the top every now and again, but he also thought that ring tones may well be the basis of the singles charts a lot in the future. It seems the writers of Max Headroom got it right.
Posted by Alfie_DUPE1, 26th May 2005:
 
there is an ad for a Double CD "we love life" which is a collection of tracks including "The song used in the Muller ads"

Ads for CDs that contain songs from ads. Sigh.

i have never seen a more cogent and apposite distillation of all that is iamcal
Posted by WarHead, 26th May 2005:
 
Shouldn't there be a comma between 'deranged' and 'scratching'?
Posted by Saltation_DUPE1, 26th May 2005:
 
YES! PEDANTRY!! THAT'S what I'm talkin' ABOUT!
Posted by robotnik, 26th May 2005:
 
I personally dislike the use of 'rantings' and the words 'deranged scratching' potential comma notwithstanding.

I kept rereading to work out why I thought there was a double dosage of 'rantings' in there. Bad design.

Posted by jlittle_DUPE1, 27th May 2005:
 
Coldplay have never got a number 1 single - the frog is the only thing stopping them from doing so now.

:D

My 2 year old loves it, and bursts out laughing whenever it comes on the TV. I downloaded it, but refrained from going into a shop and buying it.
Posted by WarHead, 27th May 2005:
 
So you're the wombat that bought it. Get him, everyone!!111

(Having a two year old is no excuse.)
Posted by Gary, 27th May 2005:
 
I'm shocked Crazy Frog is going to be No. 1, but I'm not shocked it's outselling the much overrated Coldplay.

Im sorry, but to return to the chick, I dont care how much you hate him, he is so incredibly cute. (Unlike the damed excuse for a friggin frog, which is the personification of plato's ultimate form of annoyance.) But i do have to stand up for chicky, the chick-ick chicken because i just plain love him, and the fantastical dancemove, which were executed brilliantly by two 12 year olds in the middle of the street the other day, as inexcusable as Jamster is.
I was talking about it yesterday though, and i dont know anyone who has actually used this as their ringtone yet- even though its on at least twice in every advert break!
And as an additional piece of information, i have to admit that my nan really wants it on her phone...
STUPID FROG! Indecent exposure is not amusing, especially not on cartoons!
Posted by Brock, around May 2005:
 
I was in a shop yesterday, and the woman behind the counter was half humming, half whistling Axel F in a really tuneless and breathy way that was slowly driving me insane.

The guy in front had an issue and I had to stand there for aout 2 minutes, and she was humming the same 15 second bit over, and over, and over, and over and over and over and over...

I was close to smacking her in the face by the time I got served...

Stupid bitch.
Posted by Alana, around May 2005:
 
Yep, that does sound particularly annoying... Wonder if she has it on her phone...
Posted by Brock, around May 2005:
 
She looked to stupid to own a phone, actually. They probably had to take it off her because she kept trying to eat it.

KILL THE STUPID!! KILL THEM ALL!!!!!!111111oneoeone
Posted by Alana, around May 2005:
 
Perhaps she was a particularly bewilderd frenchman.. woman, watever. Uno.. frogs.. eating. Yehhh..

My dream for tonight: That Jamster will go in to liquidation soon. VERY soon. stupid frog.

Or the frog will go in the liquidizer.

On the Axel F song front, ask yourself this: which is really the more creative - Bass Bumpers serving us up a remake of a 20 year old instrumental hit or Chris Martin rewriting 'Clocks' and serving it up as their exciting new single?
