Hello I'm Rich Brown and this is my personal website and blog. I'm just your simple, average, down to earth, professional, out gay man and aspiring circuit boy, living in Phoenix, Arizona with a few things to say while trying to find my place among all the scary, conservative, religious nuts in this sick and twisted world.

You Aren't As Important As You Think!
Ok, this is a post to everyone who finds it necessary to wear one those bluetooth headsets in public. Listen to me when I say this ... A bluetooth headset it NOT a fashion accessory! You really aren't as important as you think, and frankly you look like a complete dork. Trust me when I say this, because while you might think it's cool, it's really not and everyone around you is pointing at you and laughing at how much of a dork you are.
It seriously bugs me when I see people walking around with these on their head 24x7 as if they have some sort of cybernetic implant or something. It's bad enough to see people wearing them at the gas station or the in the store, but I've seen people wearing them in the movie theatre and in a restaurant when dining. I mean come on get real. The only acceptable time to use one of these headsets is when your driving, in the office or at home. Anywhere that's away from the public eye. It's not acceptable to consider this an accessory to wear out in public. Anywhere. When you step out of your car, take off the headset and leave it in the car and you'll be one step closer to being less of a dork.
Remember this as a rule ... technology is cool but wearing technology doesn't make you cool! Cheers!
Oh man Rich I completely agree with you on this one! I see it here all the damn time and it drives me nuts. Even more so in restaurants, who do they think they are? Some famous movie star's agent? Hah!

You could have just asked me to stop wearing my headset to the bar, you didn't have to write a whole post about it!

You make a good point. However, I wear one each night when I leave work so that I can talk to my partner until I get on mass transit. Then I keep it in my ear just in case anyone should call, it makes it eaiser for me to answer the phone. Otherwise, I don't wear it at all. That also reminds me I got to go charge it or it will be dead soon.
Common Courtesy has pretty much gone out the window. Cell phones are everywhere and so are rude people.
Personally, I think it's safer to be on Bluetooth than holding a phone to your ear while driving.
