IIRC a lot of people thought these looked "stupid" when the first one appeared in public. I think we've gotten over that.
You can recall that far back?
Comparing the horseless carriage to the Google glass is a bit much. While the car fulfilled a transportation need I'm not sure what need the GG is fulfilling.
OP, obviously you haven't even tried them. It's "Ok Glass, take a picture". OP might want to get professional help for anger issues.
Honestly, the reactions I've received from others have been all positive. Everyone wants to try it out. What kind of responses have you guys been getting from people around you?
Would you be happy to see a guy taking pictures in front of you like that, taking pic with no reason?
Why don't you grow up and get rid of these gadgets which make your life more geeky and miserable.?
They went too far...
How do you know the user is taking pictures? They could be looking up something on a map or wikipedia.

I believe that was the point. Most people who had horses and carriages thought that combination was perfectly fine when horseless carriages were introduced. They didn't like the idea of replacing the horse and buggy with something fueled by flammable liquids and belching smoke into the air.
