    So if you hear a ringtone of someone you don't want to talk to, what do you do? Let it ring and become THAT GUY?

    I did that once. Was in a parking lot of some random shopping center. Turned out the guy was calling because he was in the exact same parking lot, just saw me and was trying to get me to wave.

    Flavortown - tells you the closest eateries featured on 'Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.'

    I'm with Sonner. I don't understand the need for ringtones, especially if you're a guy and have the phone on your body. I don't think I've taken my phone off vibrate in five years or so. It's very easy to pick it up and see who it is and then decide to answer it or not. And you get the added benefit of not annoying the people around you.

    How tight are your pants that you can feel it vibrate? :D

    I'm with you. I was shocked the other day when my phone alarm rang to wake me up. Have no idea when I turned the ringer on or why.

    The Monocle function on the Yelp app does the same thing as the Layar scanner. It's pretty damn cool.

    Thank you. That's all I was asking. :D

    Or press the button that silences the phone. If I'm not carrying the phone with me, it's on vibrate.

    "Flavortown" sounds more like an app that tells you where the closest hooker is.

    Who tastes the hooker? Wait, what?
