The word "annoying" is completely synonymous with the words, "bluetooth guy."
Get in that ass, Larry! Ha!

"So I was brushing my teeth with an apple, it was horrible, horrible.."

I predict top 15.

bluetooth headset + car = useful tool

bluetooth headset + public space = useless toolbag

Haha.

I don't understand people's problem with headsets. They are convenient, that's about all there is to it. Someone talking loudly in a restaurant is a pest, it doesn't matter if they are talking to a companion, into a headset, a phone or a shoe. The whole Bluetool thing is tripe. If someone is doing it just to look cool then yeah, they are lame, but the same goes for everything else. Bluetooth headsets are neither impressive nor embarrassing.

What we need is a Trunk Monkey for the Bluetool Borgs.

@Quboid

My problem with them is they're the new pompous douchebags for the 21st century. Back in the 90's, there were always those idiots that wanted to show off how important they were by talking on their cell phone all the time, but now that everyone's doing it, they have to step it up. Headsets are a way of saying, "Hey, I might not be talking on my phone right now, but I'm so fucking important that I'll be getting a call any minute and I don't want it away from my ear!"

Also, it makes you look like a Backstreet Boy or a telemarketer. Take your pick.

blue tooth? muhahaha

Grimm - that's what I mean, it's the volume and not the hardware that's annoying.

Karaidl - well, yes, there have been pompous douches who think it makes them look great, but in reality, as you say, it makes them look like a Backstreet Boy or a telemarketer - or going by bluetooth headset users I've seen most, a taxi or bus driver. But why is this a problem? If it makes you feel special to look like a cabbie, then you deserve pity more than anger.

But as I said the hardware and the volume are not unrelated.

I swear that every minicab driver in London uses one of these but no one else.

I love the people that talk into a bluetooth headset....while holding their cellphone in their hand, like right by their ear. I work in a grocery store and I see that all the time. Haha, and the other day at work, I swear every fat guy in overalls and a flannel shirt that came in (and there were plenty of them) had one on.

Well.. there is an easy way for headset manufacturers to deal with this. Just let the speaker's voice be heard on his own headset... that's the way landline phone people had to do the same thing. The first phones didn't have that feature either, but when people complained about it they just looped the speaker's voice back to them, and bang, normal speaking voice.

^interesting but no, sorry, the annoying thing is only hearing one side of a conversation. it's unnerving. if they talk quieter... same problem, one side of a conversation.

200 people can be having loud conversations in a restaurant and somehow your brain filters that out, but if someone talks to themselves it is unnatural and jarring.

I wear a Madonna headset...I'm a material girl in a material world.

What the bluetooth guy needs is one of these

This is NOT DEAD!!!! *return.

This really blows. Maybe you non-US people could take a moment before marking a video dead? Maybe you could ask someone else if it is in fact really dead and not just a regional block? Seriously. This video plays just fine.

Only dead or deadpool videos can be deemed not dead - ignoring notdead request by blankfist.

Must have been an issue with YouTube because I'm not a "non-US people" and it definitely was dead last night.

I fixed the embed code this morning.

Was it not working for you, DFT? It has worked for me every time.

To be honest, I didn't even check. I just found a new vid.

Ah. Well, let's try this one more time, shall we? *promote
