The annoying gadget guy

There are three kinds of guys in this world.

There is the guy who does not care about or own gadgets.

There is the guy who loves gadgets but does not need to talk about them. This guy’s cellular phone, digital camera, video camera, laptop, and GPS unit remain safely tucked away unless needed. For this guy, a gadget is the utilitarian device that it was designed to be.

Then there is the guy who loves his gadgets to inexplicable heights, speaking about them at every chance and taking every opportunity to remove them from his pocket. For this guy, gadgets are conversational pieces and items of wonder, deserving of great attention, much dialogue and mutual delight.

I find this third type terribly annoying.
