It's gonna get worse. Did you see the news that the damn thing has a record out, which is outselling Coldplay and is likely to go to number 1?

I know we're not really interested in the commercial mainstream here, but it's going to be very hard to avoid. From the bit I've heard, it sounds like the Beverley Hills Cop theme, Axel F, which was irritating enough already.

Don't tell my frog-collecting wife about this; she'll be upset because we don't get it on U.S. television.

Not only is someone getting big bucks for advertising the nauseating little pollywog, but if you pay to get the ringtone, you keep paying....

What makes me laugh is that the frog has a tiny penis which is blacked out in the adverts.

Yes indeed, Standards and Practices are once again saving us all from having smutty thoughts about froggies.

That frog really freaks me out. I don't know why - it's something about the crazy-ness of it - it actually is mental. and quite scary.
Maybe I should add this to an irrational fear but...

Every advert break on TV has at least two adverts for this ringtone. Not only is it annoying it is extremely expensive. Kids are downloading it believing they are buying a ringtone and then find they have signed up for ring tones to be sent at regular intervals and often have run up debts before they are aware. It appeals to the younger end who often have no concept of read the small print and even though it says you have to be 16 to buy there is no way to actually check this. I was annoyed this morning when GMTV ran a programme long pol on the ringtone playing it several times an hour to get people to vote but in so doing were giving frre publicity to the guy who is raking in the money.
