About this sound

This 0.4-second clip is Ben, the retired chemistry professor dog from Talking Ben the Dog, picking up the phone with a low, gruff reply. It feels flat, reluctant and faintly dismissive, as if he had already decided the call was not worth his time. The moment comes from Outfit7's 2011 mobile app, where Ben answers calls from the user.

How to use this button

Put it over a screenshot of an unknown number calling at midnight.
Use it when a friend texts 'call me' and you answer with reluctance instead.
Add it to a chat reply after someone asks a question you refuse to answer.
Send it to a group chat when everyone expects you to join the call.

Where people drop it

TikTok
Overlay it on a phone-call skit the moment the caller appears on screen.
WhatsApp
Send it as a voice reply instead of answering a call you want to avoid.
Discord
Play it in a voice channel when someone pings you to join mid-game.
Instagram
Use it in a reel showing your face when an unwanted call interrupts you.

Pro tip

Time it to land exactly as the phone icon appears, because the reply only works as an instant pickup and loses its effect if it plays before the call is shown.

Good to know

Place it at the very start of a call scene, right after the ringing stops, then follow the pickup with the Bruh Sound Effect when the caller says something absurd, or with Emotional Damage Meme Sound when the news turns bad.
