The musical cry of the cell phones.

I am and always have been hit by this question whenever a phone with ringtones of that of a song rings from phones of my colleagues, "Why do you have to add those songs as ringtones? " I have never understood the fascination for having songs as ringtones and never could understand why when there is a new song i've heard on TV has to become the ringtone the next week [probably if the guy is a nutcase he would have it the next day itself]. I mean what are these guys out to prove? Below are the few possible reasons going on in the perpertrators' mind that i could muster.
a) "I want to show others that i'm in touch with modernity" [This guy needs to wake up]
b) "That song is my favourite! Oh I love it so much" [what a song! really....... i swear on errr.......]
c) "People who haven't heard this song. Let them hear it." [This is one of the best forms of serving humanity]
d) "I don't know. I just got it from my friend because it was cool" [ugghhhh! Now someone definitely has to tell me what 'cool' means here.]

I damn all these guys who trouble me when i'm with peace in office. The tone that is very often heard these days is one from SRK's new movie "Rab ne bana de jodi". When a ringtone of that song goes off on a table somewhere in the office and which has the audacity to reach my ears, im reminded of the promo video which is currently aired on national channels and makes me say "No! not that atleast". From what appears from the video, it looks like our superstar hero wants to experience coolness in a more idiotic way. I guess movie start in the age of 40 tend to have fun being an idiot. Not to forget to mention, tom cruises' bizzarre way of professing his love for katie holmes in one of oprah winfrey's show which made news for which he also confessed recently stating that he should have handled it in better way ["Love makes you blind! guess it does."]. So getting back to our super hero SRK, he seems to be trying awful lot of things with his new styles and bikes and trying to attain that hunk look. The same tried in his earlier home production movie "Om shanti Om" which, funnily, made good amount of cash [Marketing does a lot. i know i know. i hate marketing. I HATE IT]. I wonder how people end up watching such kind of movies [Well! i did watch it on TV]. I had a laugh when i watched it guess i should appreciate him for something and not for others because his movies makes me laugh and ridicule at the same time!
