How the hell did you come up with that shitty post? This is the most lame shit anybody can possibly come up with. Sweetheart do us all a favor and write about something of substance. And just to analize your post a little. See I think you like some guy that has a cell phone attached to his hip, a bold guy with nasty back hair that probably blew you off. Or maybe you are just incapable of attracting someone other than that type. The fact that you are going to sit here and complain about some guys that wear cell phones on there belt is pretty fuckin lame and maybe you deserve that type of lame ass anyway. But don't come down on guys for wearing cell phones on there belt. Most cell phones I know of come with a belt clip. And most guys I know don't carry a pocketbook to carry there cell phone. SO PLEASE STOP BEING SO PETTY.

Haa! Not adult enough to post with a name, eh? Have to do it anonymously? Wuss. Whoever said every post on this site needs to have substance? I thought this site was for fun?! I was in a training class yesterday and was laughing about how many of the guys in there wear their phones. Maybe you're one of them and that's why you're so upset? and FYI. You're not following the HolyShnikes rules of not posting swear words. You sound like you have some anger issues. Maybe confronting those on a public site isn't wise. I was simply suggesting maybe that guys could put their phone in their pocket. In these tough times, sometimes it's fun to read a silly post. It takes your mind off the more serious stuff. I didn't realize that HolyShnikes was a forum for such global impacting issues. Show us the way, Mr./Ms. Anonymous, as you feel you are surely correct and I am wrong. Oh, and FYI? I'm the number 1 poster for September, you fool.

PS - Just because a phone comes with a belt clip, doesn't mean you have to use it!!!

I can sometimes be quick to judge, but I have to say, who really cares if someone wears it on their belt? We all carry cell phones, and a lot of the time they don't fit in men's pockets, or easily fall out when they sit down. There have been many times these belt-clip wearers have saved me in a pinch just by being available. And I disagree that it is unattractive men who do this - most, if not all, of the younger guys in my office carry their Treo's around this way. It doesn't bother me and it doesn't make them any less attractive to me.

A lot of businesses require that the employees have company cell phones on them at all times. Mine is so small that it fits in my pocket or I would have to carry it on my belt. I do know the type that you describe though. Anonymous- It looks like she had a very good post. It brought 11 replies at last count

Well, I might as well put in my two cents. I am not a guy, balding, pasty, etc. If I do not have my purse or backpack with me, I wear both my phone and my BlackBerry on my waistband or belt. The reasons are obvious to any woman in the "sandwich" generation....parents in ill health who call the phone number and grown children, siblings and colleagues who send email, even about crucial, time-controlled happenings.

I'm one of those IT guys who wears a phone on my belt. The reason for it is because the phone is too big to put in my pocket. Have you tried putting a P910 phone on your pocket? I'm also not the balding, overweight IT guy that you stereotyped.

Leave it to a woman... I bet she didn't notice the super man cape. Poor guy quietly goes about keeping the world safe for the non-techies and he gets made fun of for his hairy back. I gonna shave as much of my back that I can reach on my lunch break

HOLD THE PHONE: Are you saying my TREO on my belt does not make me look important. I agree it looks lame. Bottom line...I dont care, it makes me more accesible during work. If im working it's on the belt. If im being social its on vibrate in my pocket. If you ladies would stop looking at my mid-section we would not have any issues at all. But if bald pasty guys do it for you.....

I have been on this site now for about a week and I see your blogs all over. You are the most negative person on earth. You probably haven't been laid in years and think its because you are too selective and in the end you are just a bitch with a low self-esteem!

Even though I know better, I'll often put my cell phone in a front breast pocket because the phone feels less bulky there than in a pants pocket. In fact just this morning, I put my two-week old LG CU500 in the good 'ol front breast pocket. As luck would have it, when I bent over to adjust my gym bag, out dropped my cell phone onto the concrete sidewalk. Yes, the phone got nicked up and caused me to swear like a sailor.
So this, cstraw, is why I've decided to join the unfashionable and carry my cell phone on a belt clip. Function beats fashion anytime.

cstraw, first, did you think about who is on the internet most. It is the IT guys, the very ones you just insulted, so you just opened the door for being flamed by the entire community. Not just that, but also you insulted Germans (or whoever was in Frankfurt airport). I am not sure you're building a lot of credibility here; instead, you look actually trivial and shallow. I also love your comment about being the most fashionable person someone could meet -- I guess your comment is totally unbiased :)
OK. Back to the phone thing...wearing the phone is based on practicality, not fashion.. specially, if that person is considerate and has it on vibrate mode (or as the Japanese call it: manner mode)...
it is obvious that you have too much free time on your hands to check people around you vs. being busy in the office... maybe we need to have a word with your boss.
Please stop criticizing people.

This post things. You obviously don't see that the blackberries are too big to put in your pockets. If you have any sense of fashion, then you would know that it would look bad when your pockets are all bulky.

First off all, wearing your phone on your belt started with Nextel and who uses a Nextel???? 1)Construction workers 2) People from the hood 3) Construction workers. And the construction workers cannot put it in their pocket beacause??? That shit will break faster than you type. Maybe a select few have broken the rule about it being stylish but some can still putt it off.

I had to laugh when I read this. It caught my eye because my 30-something son has a Blackberry, probably wears a company shirt, is an engineer...but beyond that, he is no ordinary geek. He has to have that phone on his belt because he actually does his job (quite well, thank you) so that his company's website is keeps working. That means the company is making money, which is the whole point. He is tall and thin, and his hair is blond. A single band with no diamond is on his left hand. There are not many like him though. He is the exception to your rule. Some people are actually conscientious about their jobs.

My dad wears his phone on his belt because he is a doctor and its easier to get to than in his pocket. I think it looks fine on him and he is neither overweight nor is he balding.

This is the dumbest shit I've ever heard. I was this IT guy and my blackberry used to annoy the hell out of me, and the DUMBASSES like this POSTER were the ones who would keep calling because their god damned internet or some stupid shit wouldn't work. For your info, I am 6ft tall, 240 lbs competitive bodybuilder, and I love my IT job.
I DARE YOU to say that shit to my FACE!
