Default Bluetooth sucks

Why do people wear these publicly? Is it really necessary? You look retarded. Some chode actually wore his in the movie theater this past weekend and that fucking blue light blinked the entire duration of the movie. The movie was packed, of course. My theater experience was ruined by some 80 year old geriatric with his bluetooth in.

Do you really need to look like a cyborg when walking around the fucking mall? No. You can take a call with your goddamn phone like everyone else. You don't impress anyone walking around talking to a $50 piece of electronic shit hanging from your ear. Not to mention, people buy these huge ones that almost look like a fighter jet headset right out of the movie "Top Gun."

I can understand using it when driving to keep yourself more alert. Women should be using this more than anyone. Actually, scratch that - women have no fucking business doing anything on the road but driving, and that's even a stretch. Like the roads are catered to your needs, you drive around with your phone glued to your ear, absolutely oblivious to your surroundings. Then you act like it's the other person's fault when YOU do something stupid because you're on the phone with your pimp (aka husband or boyfriend), i.e. run a stop sign and you honk at the other car and then start bitching out the window like it's our fault you can't multitask.

This 4th of July, all you bluetooth gurus should have a gigantic circle-jerk and you fucking women need to stay off the road.

I totally agree. What I fucking hate is when I'm at the store and some idiot behind me says "Hey, what's going on" (or insert any number of comments that would make you think someone is talking to you)and I turn thinking they are talking to me, and say "What's that?" and they get all pissy, turn their head, point at the retarded ear piece and say loudly "EXCUSE ME I AM ON THE PHONE"...

I've had this happen like half a dozen times. The last time I finally lost it, a fat lady, and I told her EVEN MORE LOUDLY "AND I KNOW THIS? YOU CAN SHOVE YOUR EARPIECE UP YOUR FAT ASS". I had just paid for my drink, it was a convenience store, and I stormed out, mostly for effect, I really didn't care but I wanted to make people notice haha.

its damn obnoxious. It annoys me that its a fashion statement. I recently bought one though, but it is only ment for the car. It stays in the car, doesn't leave the car. That way i can eat with one hand, drink in the other, balance my checkbook with my right foot, and steer and gas/brake/clutch with my left.

Oh, and inbetween bites and sips i shift with my mouth.

I was given one to me as a xmas gift and I'll use it in the house when taking calls at home and doing something else (e.g. laundry, cleaning, or some company has me "on hold"). Otherwise yea I'm with you I don't feel comfortable wearing those things in public period.

My shop foreman walks around with that stupid jawbone one all damn day, never once have I seen him use it, it must just be there to boost his already huge ego to make him look cooler when in actuallity he looks like a douche.

What's wrong with the convenience of wireless?

I hate walking around with a wire sticking out of my pocket running alongside me all the way up to my ears.

The blue blinking light does get annoying but it serves a purpose. It indicates that it's synched up to your phone. It would be cool if it could be turned off tho.

It should be a huge earpiece that is integrated into a freaking giant ugly hat, that way I KNOW when the dipshits are talking on the phone.

I fucking hate those things. They are only used by people who think they are more important than they really are. I may sound crazy, but I'm actually contemplating getting rid of my cellphone. I survived just fine for 20 years without one.

you know what else is wireless?

You don't know how crucial they can be.

I got into an accident before with a pickup truck full of illegal aliens. I was able to take a picture and make an audio recording after the collision.

I was able to record when one of them said that it was his buddy's fault (in Spanish). Next thing I know, they reported that it was me who was at fault. I called the driver, played the recording I made when his buddy admitted he was at fault... the line was silent.

2 days later, their insurance company calls me and wants to settle.

because in the state of california, talking on the phone without a handsfree device, while driving, is illegal. how else are you suppose to talk on the phone without a bluetooth device? i would rather people use these than speaker phone.

though mine isnt very big. its the one on the left, and as you can see its a lot smaller than the typical around the ear piece



oh and mine doesnt blink or any shit like that. its connected and i dont need a blue light going to town to tell me that
