Mosquitos?

There is this commercial on television (full disclosure here, people. I may or may not be watching the Degrassi marathon on TeenNick, getting ready for "Degrassi, the Boiling Point,") that claims to have ringtones for phones that "parents and teachers cannot hear."

So, apparently, society is telling all kiddos to ignore the rules about cell phones and, instead of keeping them on vibrate or silent, USE a ringtone that old people cannot hear. Or at least, they claim to not be able to hear.

So what are you going to do, kids? Answer the phone and hope I don't see your phone glued to your ear? Really?

And why, cell phone company, are we promoting this? It frustrates the HELL out of me that we want the youth of America to use their cell phones in school instead of paying attention in class.

Right, that will really get the youth of tomorrow to be an informed citizenry.
