Bluetooth headsets

Every time I see someone walk around town with a bluetooth earpiece attached to their domepiece, I always get the impression that they're holding their phone up against their faces. The kind of impression that says, "Hey! Look at me! I'm so important that I have to look like I'm always on the phone because I'm expecting a call at any possible second of the day!"

I'll let you guys in on a little secret...

Aside from the fact that I've never encountered anybody who has a remotely important job that wears a bluetooth, you look like a colossal asswipe!

The other day I saw some guy standing in line at a McDonald's (don't judge, we all like to punish ourselves in one way or another) with a bluetooth in. What's the big deal, you ask? Not only was this guy rocking a wicked mullet and poorly cut sleeveless shirt, but he looked like he was on the VIP list in McDonald land. Oh, and the shirt looked like it hadn't been washed since '92.

Now, mind you, this is one of many instances I've seen this happen. You've probably had similar experiences, and it's getting to the point where it's almost a disease. I'll go ahead and call it "headuptheassitis".

You might think I'm a bad person for assuming that this guy does nothing of value, in which case I'd like to ask you: "Would your take on this situation been any different?" Of course not, because deep down, we're all judgemental

Since I know you're all just as bad as me, tell me your feelings on the awful invention of bluetooth pieces.

  2. I honestly don't see much point in them, outside of driving.

    My father for instance, Hes a representative for HTC mobile in south Australia. Part of his job requires him to be on the phone a great deal, and he still doesn't feel the need to use one.

  3. Haha I know what you mean. It's like they're trying to convince everyone that they're some big business bigshot. Pisses me off.

  4. I like having bluetooth in the car so when I get a call my stereo turns off the music and the call comes through over the speakers.

    If you're into electronic music, check out my set I just released today!

  6. Well, as was already pointed out--driving. But another thing that validates them is the possible concern for cancer, if they really do use their cell often. Though, it is true that this is invalidated if their phone is in their pocket.

    However, all of that aside, I must agree that I've never seen anyone on a bluetooth that doesn't look like a total asswipe. It seems pretentious, and is often unnecessary.

  8. If someone's wearing one during driving then I have no problems with it. But if someone is wearing it all the time then it just looks so douchey.
