progOK, look:
Your Super Mario ringtone is stupid because it's you waving your default cultural nerdier-than-thou penis around for everyone to admire.
My monster-encounter-music-from-Dragon-Warrior ringtone is way better not just because it is significantly more obscure, but it actually makes sense in the context of an incoming phone call. It is a reasonable attempt at cleverness that makes me smile once in a while, versus me standing up and shouting HEY GUYS I LIKE THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS AND PAC-MAN every time someone calls me. Which yours is.
Maybe what I really have a problem with is the overuse of empty tribal markers with no attempt to get under them. Mm.
