this is ***** old as the bitches in the vid - AmyVernon, on 07/03/2008, -4/+30love it... and probably a pretty accurate description of how dialup works.
- Scratkiller, on 07/04/2008, -4/+25OMG....another dupe

- tama00, on 07/04/2008, -0/+10so she is responsible for my dial-up internet always disconnecting!
- PhonicUK, on 07/04/2008, -0/+7From the UK TV series 'Monkey Dust'
- thedsack, on 07/03/2008, -1/+7As long as it doesn’t pop when it hits a certain spot!
- Bowd99, on 07/04/2008, -0/+6It's a shame Monkeydust never got the respect it deserved, I guess the darker elements of it were a bit too much for the average viewer.
- CurlyFoot, on 07/04/2008, -0/+4Old as balls, but still a classic
- BetterOffEd, on 07/04/2008, -0/+3It just hit me that there are people reading this on the internet right now that don't even remember what that sound is or means.
We're gettin' *old* people... - ethangk, on 07/04/2008, -2/+5burried for still using dial up
- scabbers, on 07/04/2008, -0/+3Monkey Dust rules. It's too bad they'll never put it back on TV after the 'homegrown bombers' thing actually came to pass.
- bbbren, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2mr hoppy one was weird. i loved it.
- ethangk, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2You missed out charlotte and benji one, too lazy to find it but thats one of the best
- SuckMyDigg, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2That was awesome
- bensone1, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2I kinda miss hearing this when I was connecting to the Internet using my Dreamcast. Alas, those were much simpler times.
- 42Vindictive, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2Egads... You're right... O_O That makes me feel old.
- inactive, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2someone commented this on youtube.. thought it was kinda funny.
"I actually do like the sound. It meant that the line wasn't busy." - Rabbitez, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2You've obviously never seen the dancing car advert.
- Kornstalx, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2I made a ringtone from that clip's audio.
People look at me funny :) - bbbren, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2yeah, i've watched all the youtube videos, they're fantastic.
but this is quite old. - jimmick, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2The what?
Someone elaborate - dustin32, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2That's what she said.
- INTERNETMASTER, on 07/04/2008, -1/+3OLD
- digitalpencil, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1always wondered how dial-up actually worked..
- uberduger, on 07/04/2008, -1/+2http://digg.com/hardware/The_Internet_Is_Expanding
94 days ago apparently. It didn't make front page, but I couldn't be arsed to trawl and find the nearest front page one... :) - yaosio, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1Maybe they should take on some funny writers.
- SniperZero, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1The internet is evolving.
- Ursad, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1Just me who thinks that was to fast for dial up?
- ethangk, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1its worth getting ahold of the whole first series, its pretty damn funny with some seriously messed up parts
- smarty927, on 07/04/2008, -2/+3This is OLD!
- bbbren, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1the song!! you're going to burn!
- Smaugrens, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1That was great. Around when dialup was popular this is probably the best guess I had as to what the hell those sounds were.
- djcreamy, on 07/04/2008, -2/+3The purpose of this comment is to respectfully express my discontent with this repeat article.
Please consider my discontent expressed. - GeorgeStone2, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1Holy *****. Nostalgia-five!
- themastersb, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1If I ever hear that horrifying scream come from my computer ever again I'll go insane.
- darlyn, on 07/05/2008, -0/+1Oh my, that was horrifying.
- Bowd99, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1Elaboration:
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=rhxQT1d1AvE - jamesarice, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1BBC Three series.
- supermanred, on 07/05/2008, -0/+1Gotta love the BBC.
- jimmick, on 07/05/2008, -0/+1What is it with you and exclamation points?
- Jack9, on 07/04/2008, -1/+2Dupe
- Chicken, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1Did the other 2 times make it to the front page?
- supermanred, on 07/05/2008, -0/+1First time Ive seen it, and many others here....
So chill out Dupe Nazi.... no dupe for you! - OpCzar, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1Nobody back then knew you could turn that awful sound off, I guess. Maybe ISP's weren't telling so they could use it as selling point for DSL?
- MtheoryX, on 07/10/2008, -1/+1Old. Funny, but old.
- uberduger, on 07/04/2008, -0/+0They used it as a BBC Three advert before I'd ever seen Monkey Dust, and I remember watching it and thinking that it was the best advert I'd ever seen.
