Bluetooth earpiece - why do people keep them in their ear at all times?

Recommended Posts

So we can confuse and annoy the heck out of people like you when you see someone walking around the grocery store who appears to be talking very loudly to themself. :P

Really though, I just don't like to disconnect it from my cell phone. It's much easier to just leave in on my ear and continue on about my business. However, I generally only make a point of using it while I'm driving. :P

You also screw guys up when you women are dressed up all sexy like, walking around the grocery store, and you procceed to say "hi there, hello, etc" to the person on the other line.

I should know my odds but I still can't help from saying hello back and trying to strike up a conversation. :S

Is it just wanting to look cool - hey everybody look at me I'm a high-tech savvy person?

I would think it very irritating to keep it in your ear for such long periods of time, same as headphones for MP3 players. Do the microphones work well, being so far from the mouth? Is that part of the reason they talk so loud?

I don't have a cell phone anymore.



They have a Lt. Uhura fetish?

you are correct sir.. my error..

there was a recent Dr. Who (new series) that 'brought them back' and explained their creation. Essentially an 'upgrade' from the 'headset devices' people wore to be continually connected to the public broadcasts.....

an intentional parrallel to people who keep their earpieces in all the time now i'm sure
