More proof: Bluetooth headsets make you a douche

dude1This is pretty funny. If you Google the term “Bluetooth” with “douche” using CrunchGear as the main site, you get a lot of hits. Why? Because we’ve been leading the charge against this stupid fad. Because if you wander around wearing a Bluetooth headset, you are a douche, it’s that simple. You might think you’re being futuristic, but you’re not. They are the 2000s’ equivalent of fanny packs in the late ’80s.

They’re so bad, I’m actually on a kickball team named Bluetooth Fannypack. Really.

Don’t take our word for it, though, as Holy Taco has compiled a list of ten things that you think make you look cool but don’t, and a few entries are gadgetastic.

Like Bluetooth headsets. And the iPhone. And ringtones. Now will you please take that off and act like a human being?

Thank you.

  • The flashing blue light is priceless – nice work!

  • I don’t understand, what is the problem with bluetooth headsets?

    They are a Godsend when I am driving, just readhing to my ear and pressing a button is much safer than opening my coat, reaching for my belt buckle, undoing the case strap, then fumbling with the touchscreen to accept the call.

    Quite useful for online matches on my PS3 as well.

  • A favorite pastime of mine would be talking loudly in the presence of some douche wearing a headset, looking at them, then pointing at my own ear and quietly mouthing the words “Oh, are you on a call?”

    Most will get a brief sense of their douchieness when they’re forced to admit they’re not. Never fails. It’s like watching an epiphany in slow motion, every time.

  • WAKA kickball? I’m in team Fillet Show.

  • damn i guess i better get rid of my bt headset.

  • I have to admit (even though I use one, sometimes) Holy Taco is right on the money with this one.

    Best wishes,
    Kimmy

  • So true, that’s why I created a website dedicated to calling these douchebags out and making fun of them.

    Snap up all the pictures you can and submit them to my site!
