....to listen for the sound of the default Ring doorbell notification chime coming from the phone attached to their belt (with the volume on full blast).
Change my mind.... |

Is that easier than just looking at a person and knowing what generation they fit into based on their age?

100% truth.
Dont forget they forget they have their phone on and think its someone else. "g'dammer what in the hell is that" Turn your phone on vibrate or silent gramps. |

Are you saying no one under the age of 58 is using the default tone? That's an amazing statistic.

Of course kids would have to listen for people around them since their eyes can't bare to leave the phone screen for more than a nanosecond or two at a time.

I pick the loudest I can fnd which for me is the traditional phone and turn it all the way up. Welcome to a loud working environment.
In the vein of the OPs thread. "It's easy to spot who has soft hands because their ring tone sounds like a moan from penetration and they keep it turned down". |

If they have gray hair and the ability to make change without a calculator, they might be a boomer.

The proudest accomplishment of the current generation is their mastery of the ring tone.
Mine invented the Internet, space travel, and the McRib sandwich. |

In clown world, anyone that you don't like is now a boomer. It has nothing to do with age. Thinking is too hard. So you find a single characteristic in common and proceed as if everyone is identical. Can you imagine living life like that? It sucks and they don't even know it! |

The easiest way to spot a childish adult that thinks they'll never age is when they use the term "boomer" as a pejorative.
Change my mind. |

Look for the person walking around yelling into their speakerphone. Usually they are Asian so you can't quite tell how old they are, but they are definitely a boomer.

I used to use Cubase to edit songs for custom ringtones for everything, had software that would load them on the phone. Now IDGAF. I don’t pay attention to the tones (probably all on default) because my phone is always on silent.

I love being an unrepentant boomer. I drive whatever speed I want in the right hand lane. I eat dinner at 3. I flirt with your millenial mothers. I cash that sweet Social Security check every month while you go to work.
Excuse me while I go tie an onion on my belt. It was the fashion at the time... |

I don't judge folks....unless they throw around the "Boomer" insult. That's when I put them in the "no gag reflex" column.

False. We keep our phones in our pockets and answer them through Boomer Magic on our hearing aids. You must be one of those people who mistake Gen X for a Boomer.

Boomers are in their 70s and 80s
Think they would be easy to spot. |

A better question is, why do all Apple ringtones suck except the traditional phone ringtone?
99% of iPhone users use it. |

Yeah well your generation as a whole was not as successful at that as you might like to think. I'm not sure who that is worse for though. |

View Quote I guess we are both all wet My phone is always on silent, so no. I thought all you mfs under 40 were just blatantly disrespectful assholes who didn't know what hole a dick goes in. Guess we were both wrong. Or maybe I'm wrong right now. Either way I'm clearly wrong one way or another Send me your address I'll send you some pods, sorry kid One thing that didn't change in generations- We couldn't kick the greatest generations ass. They were bad mfs. You can't kick our asses, you are all pussies. Makeup wearing, flip flop wearing sissies, that love the taste of dick. Some shit just never changes |

Mine is still on the ‘turkey gobble’ from last Thanksgiving.

Who are y'all going to hate when we all die off?
Serious question. At least we can make change,tell time a on a analog clock,etc. We used to help train others at a job without a second thought,now,unless it's on your phone you young folks are fucked. I'm constantly amazed when a cashier stands there while trying to do math in their heads,looking totally lost. I always pay in cash,just for the entertainment. Now,get to work.I need ammo money when my SSI shows up. |

Quoted: Tucked shirts when shopping, fanny pack or pouch for discrete carry. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes You say that with dome derision. I'd carry a 16-inch AR in a fanny pack if I could and not give two shits about it if it was seen. Quoted: I used to use Cubase to edit songs for custom ringtones for everything, had software that would load them on the phone. Now IDGAF. I don’t pay attention to the tones (probably all on default) because my phone is always on silent. This is the correct answer. I used to wonder "how can I be hip? How can I be 'with-it?'" with the ringtones and the gadgets and the IPODs. Until I realized I don't give a shit and don't bother answering the phone. |

I'm a Boomer, and I don't use default ringtones. I use music clips, with a few special ones for certain family members. My default is When You're Gone - Avril Lavigne, my daughter is Crazy Train - Ozzy, and my son is Under My Wheels - Alice Cooper. There's more, but those are the main ones.
