Do we really want to live in a world where people are walking around with these things on their face, gesturing around like they are insane?

You've seen someone talk on radio earbuds when the phone's in their pocket? It's the second most creepy thing I've ever seen with a phone conversation.

I've had people looking at me while they are talking to people on concealed earbuds. It's embarrassing if you respond to them as if they were actually talking to you. But how would you know who the hell they are talking to? ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ
