My girlfriend's dad has a cell phone and he uses all the preset ringers that were programmed when he got the phone. Despite having different ringers for incoming calls, voicemail, text messages etc… every time the phone makes any sound, he puts it to his ear and says hello. If it's a text or voice mail he receives, he continues to say hello over and over.
