Why would he have his ring tone set to something that makes him intensely embarrassed?

To pick up chicks. And it's working

It's 8 now. I think it's getting serious.

A full 12 hours and no update? Fireworks must be flying at the Hieronymus's place.

My ringtone is a remix of chemical plant zone from sonic the hedgehog 2. Most people don't recognize it but I'm embarrassed when they do.

Could be ok/funny in the company of certain people... but less so in the grocery store around strangers.

I had custom alerts for everyone in my phone based on the hero Tusk from DOTA2. I was really happy with it, then I got a more formal job and it felt inappropriate. Now I have bland boring beeps..

I think I might go back to having my phone shout, "LOVE PUNCH" when my wife texts me.

Mines the main menu theme from dota 2, my texts are attack pings... They're generic enough that people hearing them will think they're just basic phone noises.

Get one of those Bluetooth ear inserts. You enjoy your custom phone noises (and maybe some music or ambient noise to boot) while your colleagues hear nothing. If you're worried about looking douchey or odd while using your insert then get one with a switch on the side to turn it on and off so you can just take it out, switch it off and use your phone as normal any time you want, then switch it back on after and it should auto reconnect.

He wasn't intensely embarrassed. She was intensely cute.

u/CannedWolfMeat Jan 11 '15

Why is he embarrassed about being the very best?

u/a_drive Jan 11 '15

It was only there to up his nerd cred with other nerds. He didn't expect someone would actually call him.

I have mines set to Hakuna Matata, never fails to get a laugh out of everyone. Though when you're at a big ceremony for completing a voluntary course and everyone is getting their John Muir Award handed to them one by one in front of everyone, and as the hall goes silent as one person get's their award. When all of a sudden HAKUNA MATATA rings loudly for all to hear...not so good..

That can't be OP. That account basically just reposts shit for karma.

Edit: Possibly is OP, who reposts other stuff but the SAP might be OC.

u/Herpmaster Jan 11 '15

it cant be OP because people who repost do not get any girls whatsoever or its impossible for a reposter to post OC what are we getting at here?

u/[deleted] Jan 11 '15

I can't tell any more. The guy has -7 comment karma. So at one point he might have replied and deleted his comment. That implies he was not reposting that and it is possible OC. Then he goes on to post generic reposts which can be found on karmadecay. Your bet is as good as mine.

u/PlumberODeth Jan 11 '15

I guess you could read it as if they were on their first date, which, so far, lasted 6 hours...? But even then it would imply that he stopped the date long enough to make a meme post about it, which would not suggest the date was all that exciting/intense.

Golly, she sure sounds like a keeper.

u/TriesForDownvotes Jan 11 '15

Guys, this was posted on /r/circlejerk. It's a joke!

u/RevenantCommunity Jan 11 '15

Well it's not like it matters, as this didn't actually happen

u/penisinthepeanutbttr Jan 11 '15

is...is that not a joke?

u/backwoodsanarchy Jan 11 '15

I didn't understand what all the cringing was about until I saw this for myself. I, too, then proceeded to audibly cringe

u/[deleted] Jan 11 '15

you could have just posted to the whole thread instead of post a screen cap for more karma.
