Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: GUEST,Liz the Squeak Date: 05 Jun 05 - 05:11 AM Well of course real frogs have willies... well, the boy ones do... how else are we supposed to get tadpoles? They don't come free with waterlilies you know! Real frogs just know to keep theirs to themselves except at the approprate time... Sometimes after mating, they die of exhaustion...... LTS |
Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: robomatic Date: 05 Jun 05 - 01:28 AM I got a copy of a little video with a chase scene trying to shoot him with a rocket. Very cute. Nothing beats frogs in the wild. Spring peepers, 'specially. |
Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: GUEST Date: 03 Jun 05 - 02:48 PM It's meant to sound like a two stroke motorbike. The frog graphic was a last minute job for the video. |
Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: GUEST,leeneia Date: 03 Jun 05 - 02:22 PM I'll betcha frogs don't even have privates. Last month we spent a few days on a houseboat on the St John's River in NE Florida. The sound of the frogs was quite remarkable - many different pitches and timings, and no regularity to it at all. Now I know where rock drummers get their ideas. I haven't heard the Crazy Frog ringtone, but I'm sure the sound of it is nothing like the sound of that chorus of real (or should I say sane?)frogs. |

Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: sian, west wales Date: 02 Jun 05 - 11:09 AM From some research I did a couple of weeks back (seeking ways to kill the Frog) I came across some info which says that it wasn't the Public Standards folks who blacked his privates, but the ringtone company. The Powers That Be had some complaints but nothing to warrant them doing anything about it. It was the ring-tone company who decided to do it off their own bat thinking that people would think it was the Nasty Censors at work and then buy the service in protest. I remember the pre-black-out frog and, quite honestly, I think this was a matter of Hiding His Shame. With privates like that, at least he won't be likely to breed effectively ... sian |
Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: GUEST,Penguin Egg Date: 02 Jun 05 - 05:57 AM Despite verring more towards traditional folk and Delta blues, I quite like the crazy frog and his crazy sound. I haven't heard the single though. |
Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 01 Jun 05 - 08:49 PM So that's why you get pixellated? |
Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: GUEST,The Frog Date: 01 Jun 05 - 08:24 PM Gee thanks for that. You had me all confused, in a froggy kinda way. Us frogs aren't too bright, but heck we sure ARE messy. |
Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: Bee-dubya-ell Date: 01 Jun 05 - 08:13 PM I was talking about the television, Froggy. Not you. I'd never hit a frog with a sledgehammer. Far too messy. |
Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: GUEST,The Frog Date: 01 Jun 05 - 08:06 PM Wow that's downright vicious. I have feelings you know. |
Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: Bee-dubya-ell Date: 01 Jun 05 - 07:56 PM The problem isn't the frog or the ringtones. The problem is television. The solution is simple: Turn it off. Unplug it. Hit it repeatedly with a sledgehammer. Defenestrate the remains. |

Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: Firecat Date: 31 May 05 - 02:34 PM Actually, muppitz, I read that it outsold Coldplay by 4 to one which is even worse!!! I stand by my earlier comment - Come back Mr Blobby, all is forgiven!!!!! and add bring back the Teletubbies as well! |
Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: GUEST,muppitz at work Date: 31 May 05 - 05:05 AM Sadly the bloody crazy frog has outsold Coldplay by 3-1. I'm pleased to say none of my immediate family has purchased it, although one sister of mine is now into "Weeble and Bob", something I'm told is a brainchild of MTV, she now sits on my PC trying to record these insane clips on her phone to use as her ringtone! They are quite infectious though, I'm starting to find them funny. (And at least she doesn't have the crazy frog!) muppitz x |
Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: GUEST,Jon Date: 31 May 05 - 04:21 AM The whole idea of individual ring tones is that you can identify your phone when it goes of Yes, that's why companies spend millions on advertising just one and people follow the craze... If one really wanted to be unique, why not write ones own? I don't know how you get them on the phones but I've just had a look at Mobile Music Polyphonic ($29.99 shareware) and at first glance, it looks to be simple to make them from midi, wav and mp3... |
Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: Liz the Squeak Date: 31 May 05 - 02:38 AM The whole idea of individual ring tones is that you can identify your phone when it goes off... Last week on the train that bloody frog started up and five, yes FIVE people scrabbled in their bags for their phones. Apparently there is a raven called Thor at the Tower of London, that has learned to imitate mobile phones - I'm going there on Friday to see if he can do the crazy frog tones too! LTS |
Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: GUEST Date: 30 May 05 - 08:39 PM There have always been novelty number one songs. Grandma, Teletubbies, Bob the flaming Builder, Birdie song etc and there always will be. Kids like them and they buy most of the singles . It's no big deal really. |

Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: GUEST,Shlio Date: 30 May 05 - 07:17 PM I can't believe people actually bought enough to make it top the charts... |
Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: GUEST,Allen Date: 30 May 05 - 05:28 AM Well one could always try and introduce a rival, the Bullfrog Blues. |

Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 29 May 05 - 09:19 AM "Maybe I should get hold of the video to find out what he can possibly be doing with his willy that needs to be covered up." Easy - it's so small - wait on, wasn't it one of the regulars here who claimed he had a paying gig? |
Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: GUEST Date: 29 May 05 - 08:47 AM Having watched approx 50 under tens dancing away to the club mix of it last week, I say power to the frog. If the ring tone aspect of it is worrying parents, they are the ones buying their kids the mobile phones, who's acting irresponsibly? Ribbit ribbit. |
Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: GUEST,Bunny Date: 29 May 05 - 08:06 AM Please, someone Kill that frog , i cant stand it any more! |
Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: GUEST,Jon Date: 29 May 05 - 07:30 AM I'm with you on the mobile phones, Tam. They do have thier uses and I sometimes use one but a lot of people are really inconsiderate with them... Which brings me back to ringtones... Surely people don't get the things just to entertain themself when their phone rings but to "entertain" those around them too. Seems like an encouragement to be unsociable in public places... I'm quite ammused by the fuss about this ad. I'd bet half those whinging are those that inflict their noises in places where I can't turn it off - at least I can switch my own tv off. I haven't seen it yet though - I don't watch a lot of tv so it may be a while yet before I catch it (if it hasn't been stopped). |
Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: Tam the man Date: 29 May 05 - 07:10 AM My father likes it and he's 80 years old. I like it as well, its these ones that don't have a sense of humour. however there are some things that I don't like and that bastard mobile phones, and the people that use them. for exapmle when you go out to a place for your lunch/dinner/bus/trian or whatever or go to a concert, there is always some dickhead who has not switched off their moblie phone, and when it rings instead of going out of the room so no one can hear you talking/shouting, they just sit there shouting to the person on the the other phone, why do they need to shout I mean is the other person deaf. I have a mobile phone myself, however I only use it when I'm telling my dad when I am coming home from a club which I visit every 2 weeks. . Tom |
Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: GUEST Date: 28 May 05 - 07:57 PM I saw the pixillated frog again tonight. Maybe I should get hold of the video to find out what he can possibly be doing with his willy that needs to be covered up. They said it is only adults who find it irritating, but I like it and I'm over 60 (the sound, that is - don't know about the willy till I get to see the uncensored version). |

Subject: RE: BS: Help stop that frog! From: GUEST, Topsy Date: 28 May 05 - 01:57 AM I happened on a TV news item about the frog last night. The stills showed it, no HIM, complete, but in the video he was censored, with fuzzy squares hiding the 'offensive bits'. |
