erakis 0 #27 December 7, 2006 The other thing I think is absolutely ridiculous about those bluetooth things is that people insist on wearing the stupid thing 24/7, as if they're so important that they absolutely MUST answer the phone before the first ring is over. --------------------------------------------- " Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man..."

Definitely agree. They have that exact attitude to go with it too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Royd 0 #29 December 7, 2006 QuoteWhat gets me is that when their phone rings they MUST pick up, regardless of the situation. Even in the middle of a conversation with someone in person.I had a lady ask me why I didn't have call waiting. I said,"I do, it's called a busy signal."

floridadiver81 0 #30 December 8, 2006 i had an instance jsut last week. It was me, my gf and a mutual friend. The mutual friend was driving. I was in the abck seat trying to activate a phone for my gf...and the volumn on the phone wasnt the greatest(i jsut happen to get the little old lady at verizon in the activation department). Well she was on the phne talkiing to her sister or something and she was so loud that i barely heard the radio over her..let alone the customer service lady. After about 2 minutes of repeating "say that again please" to the cust service lady i finally told her to put the mic to her mouth so she didnt have to have a screaming match for a phone conversation. Countless other times i have been in a public place...weather it be a department store or a restaurant etc and there would be people on the cell phone acting like they are trying to talk to the other person as if they were 4 states away. It annoys me..and i have said something to these people about it and i jsut get the dear in the headlights look like im speaking a foreign language or im from another planet or something. Although that EMP idea seems to be a pretty good one. Its people like us that would be the ones purchasing them. It sad when you have to use the same techniques that they use to train dogs to stay in the yard...to train humans common courtesy!"Age has absolutely nothing to do with knowledge, learning, respect, attitude, or personality." -yardhippie "Fight the air, and the air will kick your ass!!!

billeisele 123 #31 December 8, 2006 my favorite move is to stand next to them, very close, and stare right at their face, walk with them until they are out the door, works every time if they say something like "excuse me" then say not until you stop offending me or if they ask you to back off then ask them to shut up it takes some balls or ovaries to do this but what the heck if you can jump out of a plane then this is easyGive one city to the thugs so they can all live together. I vote for Chicago where they have strict gun laws. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
livetofall 0 #32 December 8, 2006 Ohhh you can get a device that cuts off signal..how muc you want to spend? For around $400 you can have your quite restuarant space. I dont know of delaers in USA but UK..works same frequency.. check out Spymodex.com dont buy their green lasers..dont have an IR filter...thats another story. The real fact is these loud talkers need to get out of the 90s and realize they are not special anymore EVERYONE has a cellphone. Remember then? Idiots would pull them out just as a status symbol...foookin joke Whats really funny now is these earsets that are near invisible....I mistake so many people nowadays for retards and dope burnouts talking to themselves Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
masterrig 1 #33 December 8, 2006 QuoteWhen I was in college I worked at a local sandwich shop, the kind where we custom made the sandwich and had to ask you if you wanted each ingredient before we put it on. One day this lady came in and right in the middle of ordering her sandwich she started talking on her phone. The whole rest of the sandwich my friend talked to himself as he made it. "Hi, how are you. I'm great, what have you been up to," etc etc etc. Freaking classic. ______________________________________ Very good! Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
masterrig 1 #34 December 8, 2006 QuoteQuoteQuoteSeems like, you can't go anywhere these days without someone yappin' on their cell-phones! Restaurants, theatres, banks... anywhere. What I don't understand is, what is so damned important that people with cell-phones have to be on them, what seems, constantly. To me, these people are just plain rude. If, they are at a theatre or restaurant, they can take it to the lobby. Most of the time, I leave mine in my pick-up. I have voice mail and my phone, lets me know who called. I'll call them back. I wish, so many times, I had a zapper that would cut-off some rude-asses call when I'm trying to enjoy a movie or a meal in a restaurant. It really chaps my ass! Cell-hones drive me up the @$#&*%ing wall. I wish to god people would think before using them in 99% of all cases. I do not hate technology but most cellhone users make my blood boil. QuoteI wish, so many times, I had a zapper that would cut-off some rude-asses call when I'm trying to enjoy a movie or a meal in a restaurant Personally I would find it more gratifying to simply shoot the guy. I bet I would get a standing ovation for doing that. ___________________________________ Yeah, Buddy! I'm with you on that.
