OK, I'm an idiot. What the hell is a bluetooth earpiece? And an H3 for that matter. I'm a celebrity gossip junkie so no complaints there. I will agree, long hair on guys is so 80s.
The blutooth earpiece/headset is a wireless way to use your bluetooth enabled cellphone. Bluetooth is a new-fangled communications protocol (like radio, infrared, satellite, etc) that transmits data wirelessly. It is short range and therefore perfect for hands-free devices. Many top-end model cars even have bluetooth built into the car stereo so you can turn your whole car into a hands-free speakerphone. It is WAY on the geekyside. Earlier in 2005 only hardcore geeks had these devices. Now, they've become Chic and everyone has them and wears them ALL THE TIME on the phone or not. If your phone stays on your hip and your earpiece stays in your ear, then why not use the corded version? The cordless version is good for walking around the house but leaving your cellphone on charge in the bedroom or whatever.
The H3 is the latest in gay motor vehicles from Hummer. The original Hummer (based on the military's HumV) was pretty cool 20+ " of ground clearance and TONS of room, looked like a tank and sweet. Then came the fuggin H2. They lowered it to only slightly more ground clearance than a typical picup and marketed it as an SUV. Now, they've sold completely out and released the H3 which is a smaller H2....the whole reason behind the Hummer in the first place was that it was big and badass....now it is just plain gay.
I'd like to add my own items to the list, please:
-"Educational" videos for the infant set a la Baby Einstein.
-Indie bookstores shutting down and being replaced by party supply stores
-scrapbooking as a social event
Oh man, scrapbooking, that's a good one!
Define long hair. I'm thinking eight inches of hair or shorter for guys.
I'm with you on the H3's but only because they are pointless to own. I don't quite get how a car can be gay unless it's screwing another car of the same sex (which would argueable make for a really weird porno).
Cum visit my hot car porn site! Get your free membership now and log in to see hot truck on truck action! Volvos and Toyotas in all kinds of kinky positions! Hot Hot Hot! Now, special offer on our newest video "Takin it up the Tailpipe IV - 4-wheel action"
Those three pictures are exactly what I would define as unacceptable long hair.
My husband, on the other hand, has a handsome pony-tail.
Shoot me. I scrapbook, but I only do it alone.
However... -"Educational" videos for the infant set a la Baby Einstein. Oh yes. I'm with you on that one. Sitting an infant down in front of a the tube is not educational, no matter how you dress it up.
And I could live happily ever after without seeing another teens tatoo and butt cleavage. Celebrity "news"... I could live without that too.
Johnny Damon had to cut his hair for the Yankees, but you knew that you Yankee fan.
One more thing I could do without... Nickelback. Why on earth is this band so popular? WHY???
Thank you.
