Good. Deserved.

I find that hilarious!

All of these.

Telling this "story" makes you even more of a douche than the "person" in your "story".

Was golfing in Columbus last summer and there was a foursome in front of my group. All 4 had matching company polos and 3 of them had bluetooth ear pieces in and their phones belt clipped at their waists. Can someone be that important that they need to be immediately phone accessible on the golf course? Fucking cocksmokes.


And that brings up another point. What are everyone's thoughts on cell phones in a belt holster?

It does seem to be very popular with the black people. I don't know why.


Also, outside of your car makes you a douche almost always.

I don't like phones on belts/waistlines either. This isn't 1990, they fit in your pocket just fine!

For a lot of people holster clips are more for comfortability and easy access to your phone, not so much a need to feel cool.

Did you take the phone off your clip before you sent this response?

Put the damn thing in your pocket or purse, if you're a chick.


And another thing, the only thing cell phones should be used for on the course is GPS.

Granted I have had to take a business call on my day off before, but I very rarely will answer a call or text while on the course.

I did see a woman the other day wearing a fanny pack with her phone clipped to the strap and her keys hanging off on one of those carbiner things. All I could think was what the fuck does she have in the fanny pack?

Brother-in-law is a business owner, who often gets service calls (HVAC). Has his on his belt for easy access.

'Bluetooth guy' rates up there in my book the same as the all important 'Airplane guy'...Who proudly accounces over his phone as, soon as the plane landed, so loud that everyone can hear how important he is....We just landed in CVG (or what ever 3 digit airport code), I'll be going to my Hotel and am looking forward to meeting, blah, blah, blah.
