Bluetooth Headsets Are Not Fashion

This is something that has caught my eye over the past few weeks and I felt it's worth addressing. I am talking about people wearing Bluetooth headsets with obviously no intention of talking on the phone.

For instance today, I am walking out of a local restaurant and notice a table with 5 guys sitting at it. One of them is wearing a Bluetooth headset. Clearly, since he is out to lunch with a group of people he has no intention of talking on his cell phone. This means he's wearing it because he thinks it looks cool. I was also at an offsite meeting last week and someone there was wearing one. Come on, there is no way you are going to take a call in the middle of a meeting. Now, I'm into tech gadgets just as much as the next guy and certainly understand the functionality that these provide, especially if you are driving the car.

Here's a heads up though, if you are wearing the headset around because you think it looks cool, you're wrong. You look like a fucking idiot! Knock it off.
