I didn't catch the second half of this list, but I was saying to myself "bluetooth headsets" over and over again in my car while listening to the first half. Glad to see it made #2, although I would argue it should be #1.
I guess I don't mind when I see a guy using a bluetooth headset when his hands are full or if he's driving or something. It's the assrods that use it when both hands are completely free that piss me off. Go to any airport to witness this behavior. These people only display this behavior when amongst large groups, so as to appear as important as humanly possible.
I was recently scrambling through the Minneapolis airport trying to find my gate. I had very little time between flights, and was operating on almost no sleep. I discovered I needed to hop a tram to get to the proper concourse, so I waited for one to arrive. While waiting, I couldn't help but notice this douchewad in a suit adopting the perfect "power pose" (arms crossed, feet shoulder width apart, eyes focused intently on the ground in front of him) nearly screaming into his bluedouche headset. Then I noticed an older gentleman similarly dressed standing right next to him, intent on what this guy was saying. Then I noticed the younger guy was "dressing down" a subordinate in front of his superior as loudly as possible, using as many corporate-speak words as he could. I instantly wanted to assault him. I focking hate ass-kissery of any sort, but when it's being carried out via bluedouche, I have to restrain myself.
