Ahoy hoy was suggested by Alexander Graham Bell as the standard way to answer a telephone, before hello became normal. On The Simpsons, the very old Mr. Burns still uses it every time he answers, which highlights how out of touch he is with the modern world. The joke has kept the phrase alive for decades, and clips of Burns saying it now circulate as a reaction sound for old fashioned greetings, formal hellos and anyone sounding like they belong in another century.

The Ahoy Hoy sound effect is Mr. Burns answering the phone on The Simpsons with his old fashioned greeting, used for funny retro hellos and awkward calls.
This clip is the drawn out ahoy hoy greeting delivered in a dry, upper class tone by Mr. Burns when he picks up the telephone. The phrase sounds deliberately outdated, which is the whole joke, turning a simple hello into something formal, stiff and instantly out of place. It lasts a few seconds, with a clear pause that makes the greeting feel even more awkward. Listeners familiar with the show recognise the voice and manner immediately, while others hear a strange, old timey hello that works as a polite but comic interruption in conversations, streams and edited videos.
