Whats everyone's thoughts?

I freaking hate them! A dude I work with wears his in the office. You never know if he's talking to you, himself, or his stupid Bluetooth. Annoying and stupid!

I am a huge Bluetooth user in my car. Sometime I wear it around the house if I am going to be on the phone for a long time. (I work from home.), but never,and I mean EVER do I wear one in public.

My best friend's way fucking guilty of this. Don't think he has some "I'm important, look at me!" syndrome, but he does have the "any time is the right time to get on the phone" syndrome and he has a Bluetooth. Which means that he'll call me while driving on some short errand and I'll get the thrill of being right there on the phone while he's giving fast food orders, renting a movie and other mundane things. Nothing like being on the phone for like 10 minutes with someone...while, for about half that time, they were talking to someone else or thinking out load to themselves.
The hilarious thing is that he sees nothing wrong with that ("Man, I was having a stressful day and just wanted to have a little chat during my break..."), but got annoyed with me a couple of times because I was on AIM while on the phone with him. Damn, one of these days, I'm stabbing him.

I use mine all the time. Reception/clarity is better and I find talking on the Droid to be a bit clunky. That said, I don't take the bluetooth out in public to the store or bar or whatever. But the airport, park, coffee shop - if I'm expecting a long call I probably have my bluetooth. Have even used it for listening to music. I do feel like a deuche, but it's a simple matter of practicality and convenience. Getting a stereo bluetooth headset - how you like them apples?
And people talking on their speakerphones in public are far more obnoxious.

I don't use them at all. I have no need for it in the car because I hard wire my phone through the radio with an auxiliary cable or I'll use a bluetooth car kit that clips on the visor. I don't like having something like that on my ear.
I play softball on Monday nights and there's a douchebag umpire that wears a bluetooth while he's calling balls and strikes. He's a cockface.

Ah yes, my friend regularly (when on the phone with me while in a store with the BT in) will interrupt me to assure some random person that he's on the phone, so they don't think he's some crazy guy talking to himself. Like I said...some day I'm stabbing him.
It is good to see that at least I'm not the only person out there who thinks his habit of BTing it in public is fucking stupid.

Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where George acted like he was frustrated all the time because he looked busy. Same with these blue teeth people. They want you to think they are overachievers.

I just enjoy now that the shittiest looking of people have them and they strut around in stores like look at me I have bluetooth. Which would have been cool like I don't know a couple of years ago but now everyone has it including welfare assholes.

There's some fuck that wears his at the gym. I've even seen him have it on while on an elliptical, talking away while doing a half assed cardio workout

A couple of years ago I ran into my old neighbors at the local fireworks display. Sure enough there was their adult daughter wearing her BT. I thought who the fuck is going to call her? She is a waitress and it is the Fourth of July.

Nothing worse than a cockface. Nothing!

When I worked at Sprint, I had this scuzzy looking dude come in and ask to see our bluetooth headsets. I asked what type of phone he had because certain headsets would work better with certain manufacturer's phones. He replied, "Dude, I ain't got a phone. I just want to look cool." I sold him the $129.99 headset (the most expensive one we had at the time).
