July 12 - International Punch a Cyborg Day

If there is any one thing I hate, it's those little Bluetooth cellphone headsets that people wear.

Don't get me wrong, I don't hate everyone who wears them. I realize that it's a necessary piece of equipment when you are a businessperson and you may be talking on it all day long.

But, I beg of you, please do not keep it in your ear when it is not in use. If you are not, at this very moment, talking into the damn thing... take it out of your ear until such time arises that you need it. Otherwise, you risk being part of today's celebration.

That's right, people! It's time to teach these pseudo-cyborgs a lesson, Wolvie-Berserker style!

Yeah! Find a person who has one of these things in their ear and is not using it and rip it out of their ear and smash it on the ground and, when they ask you why you did that, pummel them.

Photographs linked in the comments are worth extra points!

(Note: the management here at International _____ Day does not condone violence. We recognize that kapgar is just in a really pissy mood this week and this was the first thing he could think of when he realized his deadline was fast approaching. We promise... he WILL be in a better mood for his next day on the 22nd, so help us.)

Its is even worst when they wear them into my store and then come up to the counter for help and stand there talking into it while conducting business with me. I will kick every one who does this today. I promise to also get you pictures!

I punched three people! Do I win a prize?

Lost Goddess, if you upload photos, you are golden.

Hyperion, without photographic evidence, all I've got are stories. But I do like stories.

We have 2 at the office.

The problem is, when you punch 'em, their arm turns into a gun and they shoot you.
