ringback tone 

A little "trend" started by Verizon wireless in which songs are substituted for that same old ringing sound.
Unfortunately, each sound clip is tinny and static-ridden, and lasts about 30 seconds before repeating.
They may also cause your friends to hate you. Realize that this is only because you've had "Baby Got Back" on ringback for sixth months. This is why they no longer call you.
Along with the tones comes a tricky system online where you set them up and decide whether you want a Jukebox (a playlist of many different songs) or just one song over and over again. Each tone is $0.99 and lasts a year.

Ringjacker 

A possessive douchebag who tries to contain an otherwise freely available girl. He keeps her off the market by gifting her a ring way too early in the relationship. He showers her with affection and makes her promise to be faithful to him because she's the only one and he's different from all the other scum-nuts she's dated before him. Meanwhile the boy who loved her from a distance and was about to ask her out notices the gold band and begins his long journey into drug abuse, alcoholism and casual one nighters with cheap hookers.

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
