Jamster stealing SFX from Stranger?
 
There is this company called Jamster! Ringtones, and I heard this one on a commercial. It seems they have something called "Drill Squirrel", I suppose referring to a drill sergeant. But it sounds like an uncanny rip off of the cluckers from Stranger. I understand that the person that does their voice could conceivably go do a voice over for them, but I'm just making sure they didn't just steal it from the game and are trying to make money off from it.

heres the link to where you can hear it:

It says that the item cannot be found.

I have heard that commercial, and that voice sounded exactly like a Clakker to me as well. In all honesty, though, I think that any Southern-accented voice, increased in speed to sound squeaky, would sound like that. I doubt that whoever's behind those irritating commercials has played the game and intentionally copied the voice. Then again, you never know...

if you go to jamster.com, then in the search field type in "drill squirrel" it should come up.
