Cyborg Wannabees

Okay, for quite some time I've noticed the increasing trend of people walking around, going about their daily activities, with a Bluetooth headset in their ears. I just don't understand it. Unless you're driving, chances are you just don't need it. And it's highly unlikely you need to be on the phone continuously as you go grocery shopping, purchase your Starbuck's Frappuccino, walk your dog, and use the toilet. What's so hard about removing that silly little gadget from your ear unless you actually need to make a phone call? Don't you know it makes you look silly? Maybe even like a cyborg from Star Wars.
