Your ringtone reveals a lot about your personality and flaws
Your mobile phone ringtone reveals a lot about your personality and flaws, a survey by British company Tesco Mobilehas revealed.
People who constantly change their tone to whatever is currently in the charts are unreliable characters.
Those who opt for classical music are regarded as pretentious, while ageing rockers can be easily identified by their polyphonic versions of classic tracks such as The Who's My Generation and Boston's More Than A Feeling.
If a phone boasts its owner's voice, or their partner or child, it means they are self-obsessed.
Men with rude or animal sounds as their ringtone are immature.
The survey also found 21 per cent of folk think having a standard phone ringtone is "uncool", indicates a lack of daring and fear of technology.
A quarter of phone users admit the first thing they do after buying a new phone is select a ringtone. (via The Daily Record)
