There are a lot of people in the world who see every action that others take as some kind of personal statement on the world, instead of just seeing those choices as people doing things for themselves out of natural interest. You eat meat? You're an asshole, because you must think we should all be carnivores. You studied computer science and got a good job? You're an asshole because your lifestyle is implying liberal arts is worthless, and that I am worthless because I studied liberal arts. You became a wall street trader? You're an asshole because you're telling me money is everything. You wear Google Glass? You're an asshole because you're saying I should wear technology on my face and I don't want to. It's incredibly naive and self-centered. To think this way, you have to believe the world revolves around you, because you think everyone else's actions are conscious decisions directed at you or people like you. The idea that some people might actually like Glass in a personal sort of way as a cool technology is beyond them. You're making a statement about them - judging them, by wearing glass. So you're an asshole. It's stupid.
