Ugh, Get a Life.

It’s already Wednesday, having Monday off has thrown me for a total loop. But I am one step closer to Friday so I reckon I’ll just shut my trap and go with it.

The other night I went with The Hotness’s daughter and her friend to play pool at a billiards room here in Tucson. While we were there a girl who was wearing an outfit I wouldn’t even let near my body (and that’s saying something) was playing pool with her boyfriend. At first I didn’t pay much mind to them but then something caught my eye. She had one of those Bluetooth things stuck in her head and wore it the whole 6 hours we were there. Lil’ Miss. Bluetooth would constantly futz with her hair on the side of her BT in a very showy way in what I thought was to make sure everyone around saw it.

And of course we all did. I’m sure she got a nice sense of self satisfaction when she busted me staring at her as her back got a little straighter and a weird smirk crossed her face. But if she would have known what I was thinking in my head I’m pretty sure she wouldn’t have felt quite so high on the hog at that moment. Now I’m sorry folks but how fucking important are you to walk around a very loud and very smoky pool hall at 11 o’clock at night with a phone attached to your head flipping your hair away from it every two seconds? While playing pool? And of course making sure everyone notices.

Seriously, give me a break. And god forbid if whatever call you are so anxiously awaiting is so important then your ass should be back home where it’s quiet or in…hell…I dunno a coffee shop. The whole time we were there she didn’t get one call. My cell phone was ringing off the hook buried somewhere in my purse but after 8pm I don’t touch that sucker with a ten foot pole. And I’m also not taking it out and waving it in the faces of everyone in the room. But to each his own right?

We left the hall around midnight and stopped at a Circle K on the way home. I was the only one to go in and coming in directly behind me were two shady characters. I love saying “shady characters” it makes me feel all 50’s Detective and whatnot.

Anywhoot, one of these guys who was whiter than I (hard to believe I know) but dressed like he was straight out the ‘hood took a path directly behind me. And guess what? That’s right, he had a Bluetooth headset in his ear! At midnight. At Circle K. Again, is there some group of people who have magically become more important than the rest? Are we seriously so busy that we can be bothered to pull our phones out of our pockets in the MIDDLE OF THE FUCKING NIGHT?

Captin ‘Hood and his Headset then proceeded to hit on me. Real classy muthafucker, let’s just not only disgust Bug with your faux-importance a la Cyborg but then let’s open your big trap nice n’ wide and prove her right. That you really are a douchebag.

I’m not hatin’ the Bluetooth itself y’all, I’m sure it’s a nifty little gadget. All I’m saying is they seem to be gettin’ attached to some real dumbass folks around these parts lately.

Hater….

Seriously, I have a bleutooth headset. 2, in fact.

When I put it on (mostly for work or because it’s handsfree and cord free) I forget it’s there. It’s very comfortable (mostly) and I just don’t even think about it being there except when I get a call or make a call…

But, at midnight it’s pretty lame. Unless you are working.

But you’re still a hater….

OK, before I comment- my word? Pissy. WHAT A RIOT, especially considering what I just posted!

Anyway, my favorite combination is the bluetooth head seat and hammer pants.

One of my friends has one of those. He wore it to a pool hall with a bunch of us once. After the first 5 minutes with us taunting the crap out of him for it, he finally took off. 20 minutes later, his wife called and it was back on. As soon as the call ended, we resumed the taunting until he took it back off.

I’ve got one, but I only wear it when I have to attend meetings when I’m driving the car, doing the hand jive, or having sex. Any other time, and it’s just a poser doing it for show!

I always think people using those things are talking to themselves until I noticed the thing jammed in their ear!

*gasp* my word verification word is: FUCK. hahahahaha

I find myself wondering about the insecurities of people who have their cellphones GLUED to them. Well, now with bluetooth I guess they can be implanted…sort of.
And those idiots who have those on & then talk all animated? Do they even realize how stupid they look? Oh wait, I forgot, it’s “cool” baby. Yeah, that’s it.

You really shouldn’t talk about Britney Spears that way.

Yea, I get why people have ‘em… and that’s great and all… but when we’re at a family dinner in a public place, and you haven’t removed it since work…and mid-sentence with your daughter, suddenly, you’re talking to someone about work again? Without even a, “Sorry, hon. One minute.” ?? RUDE. I hate those things.

Hey, I have a bluetooth. But I never wear it unless I’m in the car. In fact, then I don’t either because I have a “phone aversion.” Yes, that’s right, I hate using the phone. So why do I have a cell phone with a bluetooth headset thinggy? Because my husband insists I have a phone and the headset came with it. I don’t even think the phone is charged…in fact, I don’t think I’ve had it on all summer. LOL Yeah. I’m a phone hater. Holla!
