Today, I attended a funeral. During the minute of silence, my phone went off. My ringtone is "It's good to be alive". FML

YDI for not turning your phone off. You're at a funeral for God's sake.

I don't see how anyone deserves this. Unless the people are happy for him having a song like that.

It could have been an accident, but turning off your phone is pretty important before a funeral.

Same type of thing happened to me. My parents were at a memorial's day parade while I was home alone. I decided to get my laundry taken care of, and so I called my dad when I realized we were out of detergent... I had no idea that it just happened to be the moment of silence for all the soldiers that have died. His ringtone was "Hit me with your best shot" and it's set at full volume since he forgot to put it on silence.

Payment for the funeral $1000 give or take; cellphone $90; ringtone $0.99; the reaction people gave you? priceless.

It's true that people make mistakes, but this was a situation in which one should double check that his phone is on silent.

Can't double check if you didn't check the first time. ;)

If they didn't want to turn it off, they should've at least changed it to a more appropriate song...

List of appropriate songs at a funeral: The theme song from MASH Thriller I Am Not Dead Yet Can't Touch This and any song by Al Green

Nope. Maybe Don't Fear the Reaper, but no Stairway.

'another one bites the dust' would be funeral appropriate

"Still Alive" from Portal would be my personal choice.

Every funeral home I've been to, they ask people to turn them off and/or have signs up. This is not a "mistake," this is a crass, self-centered asshole with no consideration for anyone but himself.

He could have had a job where it was vital that he be accessed by phone 24/7, like a specialist medical consultant or something.

Maybe someday looking back it could be funny. But you really should have had your phone off or on vibrate.
