Reply #24: I was just talking about those with a friend of mine Tuesday night [View All]

We went out for dinner and a guy walked into the restaurant with a Blue-Tooth attached to his ear. I wondered aloud if the people who wear them constantly do so out of a need to seem important or a desire to seem "cool". My cell phone (I don't have a BT and don't plan on getting one) stays in a pocket in my purse until I need it. I never take/make calls in restaurants or similar places unless they are urgent, then I get up from the table and go to the lobby or outdoors.

I just don't get people who feel the need to fill an environment with their phone conversations (worse yet are the "walkie talkie" phones where you can hear both sides of the conversation).
