Whimsical sounds
Everyone used to always have a good laugh at a text alert sound once technology expanded to accommodate custom noises for more than calls (or at least that's how I remember it). So for a couple of years me and my mates would have a chuckle when someone got a message and the treasure chest tune from Zelda sounded, or perhaps Clint Eastwood enquiring about how lucky we felt. Of course this led to one-upmanship.

I totally won a few years ago. It was so ludicrously hilarious that all buckled when they heard it. All except one.

I was having a quiet night in visiting my dad when my mate David texted... and Stan Smith from American Dad announced the arrival of my text by declaring "Which is why I've decided to have sex with a man" rather proudly...

Bet my dad was chuffed when I told him I was engaged to a real-life lady two months back.
