Bamboo Shoots under Fingernails? No, too good for this guy.

Whoever invented this psychotic "feature" for cell phones to play music at callers while they wait for some idiot to answer the damn phone should be tortured within an inch of his or her life many times over.

Does anyone know who invented this insanity? And the address of said person?
