You're a bluetooth idiot
People who wear bluetooth headsets for their cellphones, look like idiots. Unless you're constantly using your cellphone, there is absolutely no need for it to be permanently ensconced in your ear. I see you. You're not constantly on the phone.
Take this dude currently sitting in the Second Cup, listening intently to the woman in front of him using paper, pen, her hands and her mouth, to be very convincing. He doesn't look very convinced. That's because he isn't listening. He's too busy with that shiny appliance jutting out his ear -- looking like a jewelled beetle has gotten his ear in a death bite. He looks rather silly -- like some cyberpunk reject with an androidian fetish. The look just doesn't work on him. It would only work on the Borg.
I can see the bluetooth appendage being useful for situations requiring hands-free phone operation, such as driving, operating heavy machinery, surgery -- but really, you're not that important folks -- sometimes, you really can be away from the damn phone and the world will continue with you missing that all important phone call that doesn't seem to be coming anyway. Other than the most pressing of situations, where your hands do need to be free and you really wouldn't live if you missed a call -- ie. you're a girl between 12 and 17 -- you can, and should, take the damn bluetooth headset out of your ear. Otherwise, you just look like an idiot.
And don't get me started about the people who walk down the street acting like a bluetooth lunatic.
