The BlueTooth Phenomenom

No offense to any friend of mine who happens to wear one of those wireless phone headsets at all times.

No, actually, you should be offended because you look like a fool with that thing in your ear.

The phone headset is the modern day Pocket Protector.

I was at the park yesterday watching my kid eat sand. (FlipFlops, T-shirt, Shorts.) I happen to notice a guy my age with his kids. Tight Shirt, Designer Jeans, Trendy Sport Watch, no shoes.

I think, "Single dad perhaps? Looking dapper at the park? Good place to meet single moms? Got his pimp limp working?" Good move.

He turns to the side and all that he's done has been unravelled. He's got this gay piece of equipment hanging off the side of his face. Dude, seriously? I don't get those things. He's not driving, he's not operating on someone and needs both hands. He's at the park with his kids. You can't not go....."hands free?"

I see that no different than if he had a transistor radio hanging from his belt blasting Europe. It's just bad.

No matter who you are or how hard you try I don't think it's possible to make that look, look good.
