There was a
time when if you saw somebody walking towards you, and they were talking loudly
to no one in particular, you would give them a wide berth. No need to get too
near a crazy person. Then about fifteen years ago I started noticing more and
more crazy people walking around town talking to themselves. I mentioned it to
Mark at the time, and he informed me of ‘Bluetooth’.
“What the
hell is that, some kind of pirate with bad teeth that drives you crazy?”
“No, it’s a
device that lets you talk on your cell phone hands free.”
So over the
years I have got quite used to seeing numbskulls walking around, shouting into their
Bluetooth, and sharing their personal business with everybody. During our stay
here in Chicago however, I found that there are still homeless people with
mental problems walking around, talking to themselves. Either that or the more
boorish of Chicagoans tend to wear dirty clothes and neglect their personal
hygiene.
that's funny I've seen that happen before weird...
ReplyDeleteJust saw a dude yelling at traffic and karate chopping the air near the Publix grocery store. I don't think he had a bluetooth. In fact I don't think he had any teeth.
