  • When I first heard the Amber Alert thing I was getting a haircut not too long ago and it was on somone's phone it literally scared the crap out of me. I thought "Why would you have that as your ringtone? That's the most obnoxious ringtone ever." then someone else got one and mentioned about and then Amber Alert and then I thought "Oh so that's what that is."

    Weird, I got one a couple of days ago too. Honestly, I'll deal with a momentary jump if it gives people the information they need to potentially help a missing child.

  • I remember senior year in high school (last year essentially), and everyones' phones were going off, despite them all being on silent. Luckily the teacher was lax about the situation since they knew that such events couldn't be silenced.
