There's nothing funnier than hearing "Crank That (Souljah Boy)" come out of a cell phone interrupted by an Israeli woman saying "AH-lo!" Ringtones are ridiculous.
Israelis, if you don't understand this, I can only compare it to some redneck in rural Alabama having "Hinei Ani Ba" by Hadag Nachash on his phone and answering "YELL-o!"
Actually, it's 1000 times funnier than that.
And I don't even know what to say about this.
Is this the Yemenite step?

At my daughter's (religious) elementary school, I watched one of the parents backing their mini van into a parking spot. They had the warning beep playing Christmas carols...
I am really lucky to have watched that video. I can't stop thinking about it and cracking up. I also like the other one on youtube with the kids in their house being really white and trying to dance. This song just inspires the best choreography.
That video clip is hilarious!
As for ring tones, I was blown away to find out that they are a $6 BILLION annual business worldwide. Makes you wish you'd thought of the concept, huh?!
That is THE most ridiculous song ever produced.
There are no words.
Actually, Amanda, there are words.

Eat your heart out, Shakespeare.
hmmm...they look a little young to be dancing like that...
Hilaaaaarious.
And why is it spelled "soulja?"

I'm dying.
My all time favorite anachronous cell phone ring story needs some context.
I was traveling in Hadar, an urban area of Haifa, when 50 Cents' "I got the Magic Stick" blared through the bus. Whose cell phone was it? The teenagers next to me? The university student's across the aisle? Nope. The "Magic Stick" ringtone belonged to an older Arab woman, draped head to foot, returning home from her weekly shopping.
I like to think she chose it herself-- it is a contagious tune-- but I'm guessing one of her kids programmed it in.
