terribleturner Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 It's on every bloody channel at the start and end of every bloody brake. They must be making some serious money if they can afford to air it so much. Been sat here preparing myself for my nightshift and that's all i can hear in the background. The frog and the Axel F tune. http://www.visit4info.com/sitecontent/LG/fullZZZZZZTVWCL1222000809PIC.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliot Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 Do you think people actually, pay £3 or whatever it is to download that sh*te? I suppose they must do. Sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terribleturner Posted May 19, 2005 Author Share Posted May 19, 2005 Must admit that it did make me smile that link. But it's still really annoying. I'd never thought i'd be pleased for my week off to end. I just hope they're not advertising it at work. Don't think i could stand 4 x 12hour shifts with that going off every 15 minutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt T Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 I was watching Sky One the other day, and it came on 3 times in one adbreak, not just on one occasion, but every damn adbreak during the program!!!!!!! But tbh, it isnt all that bad, yes its very repetitive and a stupid poxy ringtone, but at least it actually started out as something very funny (the F1 car thing on the net), and not like those poxy birds and the dragon!!!!!!!!!

Bobbeh Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 Whats sad is all the morons thinking that something that appeared on the internet about 7 years ago is still considered funny today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted May 19, 2005 Author Share Posted May 19, 2005 That bird and dragon too. "Look at me, here i am, we can fly together" WTF!!! What has that got to do with a mobile ring tone?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONKEYmark Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 hands up i bought for someone else. the axel foley mix tune, what a rip off for £3 20 seconds worth of tune. if anyone wants it for free send me an email i will send it. its only 118k in size. i do admit they are going ott on the adverts. they supposed to have made £11 million on the first frog thing. if they were something like 50p it would not be too bad. they target kids who have to have the latest ringtones. you better off with a mobile that can play mp3`s and with bluetooth you can send any files you want.

Zed Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 The guy that created is a 18 year old Korean I believe and was paid about $10 Million for all the rights to it. If your getting sick of the adverts then you won't want to hear that theres going to be a huge merchandising campaign and theres even plans for a cartoon based around the character. Bloody school kids that are making these people rich, although it's their parents that usually pay the bill. A fact that these companies are very much aware of and exploit fully.

If your getting sick of the adverts then you won't want to hear that theres going to be a huge merchandising campaign and theres even plans for a cartoon based around the character. Not sure where you heard that but it's origins go back to 1997 - a guy from Sweden called Daniel Malmedahl ([email protected] if you want to thank him) recorded the noise to mock his mates who had mopeds, the racing car "insanity test" came later as did various other things using the original 'moped' noise. A chap called Erik Wernquist (another Swede) drew the frog and called it "The Annoying Thing" and before long Jamster asked them both for permission to annoy the hell out of the world with it. Anyone who isn't sick to death of it might want to click this link: http://www.turboforce3d.com/annoying/index.htm Both guys reckon Jamster didn't give them a geat deal of cash for the rights to use it.

garethr Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 "a guy from Sweden called Daniel Malmedahl ([email protected] if you want to thank him) recorded the noise to mock his mates who had mopeds" That's a relief I keep reading that it's supposed to be an F1 car, but to me it sounds like an old racing 2-stroke coming "on the pipe".

SupraStar 3000 Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 why can't they show its dick on TV? Not that I partially want to see a cartoon frogs penis but why has it got to be censored? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
