That reminds me of the Hannibal Lecter film where Ray Liotta gets his brain eaten
Speaking of Beck, I was wondering if I'm the last person on earth to have a song clip as a ringtone. I use Beck's "Movie Theme"; my ringtone starts at 1:37.
the lyrics are:
Listen to a voice
On the telephone
Somebody's calling
Somebody on the way
I've been using this for several years now.
Ringtones ring. Other people can hear them. It ranges from goofy to annoying.
Ringtones are so 2001.
That got me thinking: the overture from the movie 2001 would make a great ringtone.

Sherbert is NOT and NEVER WILL BE ice cream.
I love my musical ringtones and alarms. I use them as text tones too as people rarely actually call on the phone anymore. Glad you find them annoying.
this gym teacher is the best. drop the cursing and this guy is pretty much my exact high school gym teacher.

my gym teacher would constantly bust our balls and idk about all the other kids but my friends and i loved him for it. since my name is pronounced 'yon' he started calling me kippur after the holiday yom kippur. well that wound up being my nickname for 3 years.
we would purposefully do stuff just to make him mad cause he would react like the guy in that video and we couldnt get enough of it.

It just occurred to me that Koopman is likely a jewish name. That would make at least 3 in this small group.
not sure about the origins of the name but somewhere along the way it became owned by a dutch reformed protestant family. the koopman men though, going back to my grandfather and including me are all atheists who only went to church if pressured by a woman.
that story about being named kippur for most of my high school career is cause i went to a mostly jewish high school. funny too cause it was a quaker school but the student body was somewhere around 75% jewish. its also kinda neat that we would all have a mandatory quaker religious service once a week. but with the quakers you can pretty much have any belief and still feel at home in the services since all you do it sit quietly for an hour and anyone who feels like getting up and talking for a bit can do so. its more like silent reflection or meditation than a religious affair.
