Blue Tooth Ear Devices

OK, that's enough. You look so stupid with that thing sticking out of your ear. Have you been assimilated into the Borg or what? The next thing you know, people will affix an external hard disk on their forehead so they'll have all the nation's telephone directories handy. Even better, people could get something akin to a Darth Vader helmet to house your communications, web surfing, email, global positioning system, AM/FM/MP3 system, and porn movies.

Trying to keep up with the technology? Well, I have news for you: It's not there yet. Blue tooth speaker devices suck and they're a pain in the ass to switch from regular mode to "Blue Tooth" mode.

Trying to be fashionable? Well, I have more news for you: You look stupid. You also look really conceited. Really, who are you trying to impress? Are you that important and lazy that you can't stumble around with the rest of us zombies and use your cell phone in a normal manner, like, discreetly?

If there's anything that drives me crazy, it's hearing and seeing somebody apparently talking to himself or herself when, moments later, I see their little device. You're already inconsiderate enough to have your conversation wherever you please no matter who are you disturbing, now you're just making it easier for yourself and more puzzling (and annoying) for those around you.

Take that thing out of your ear. I have a better place you can stick it.

Funny you mentioned this.

I ran into a guy the other day who I thought had Schizophrenia because he was wandering around talking to himself and laughing from time to time.

Come to find out he had one of those fucking things in his ear. What an ass!

I feel the same way. I always hope the batteries in those things will spontaneously explode.

Can you hear me NOW, bitch?

Those people are only self-important.

Next, those people too busy to stop walking/driving/eating will be wearing a flushable bed pan on their asses.

I'm with LBB, hoping for an early lithium battery meltdown that runs into their brain.

Huh. I kinda like the schizophrenic Borg people. They give me a giggle.

ARGH! just today I was walking down the hall of the building and some guy was sitting on the bench and that fucker yelled out, "Hey, what's up?" so I raised my hand part way and started saying my usual, "Oh not much..." when he started talking again. Idiot had one of those things sticking out of his head. What a jerk.

yeha, I was at a footy (Australian Rules football) match a few years back and a bit drunk and this person about twenty metres away was talking in a really loud voice "HI, HOW ARE YOU?". I yelled out "GOOD THANKS, HOW ARE YOU?". They got really pissed off at me, but for fucks sake, why is it that I can talk to people on a mobile phone in a voice so quiet that no one around me can hear it, yet some dickheads have to fucking SHOUT so that every one around hears everything they say?

(sorry to say this, but there seems to be a larger percentage of Americans who do this, because you guys seem to have an obsession with clear, loud pronunciation of every fucking syllable. Do you have something against mumbling and abbreviating words so much that no one has any idea what you're saying?)
