#& theyre like 'just use wireless headphones'

[straightlightyagami]

I fucking hate Apple (the company) products you cannot fucking plug your headphones into your fucking phone without the fucking adapter that I keep losing and you cannot plug in a fucking USB into the fucking computer do they make this shit for toddlers??????

[anzuhan]

i think its cool that anzu has an mp3 player!

thank you 🙏 anzu does not like wireless things, and anzus phone does not have a jack... so anzu really likes going out a lot w the mp3player listening to things. its very practical too... but its also so nice to have ! it makes anzu very happy it just exists as is, whenever anzu gets to put songs on it. the 140p covers of the albums on it are so charming

edit: anzus most used headphones w them are also those persona 3 styled ones that are clip on ! (< best way anzu can describe them) anzu loves them a lot too.. theyre nice and look cool too♡

hey my fourth pair of sony mdr xb650bt headphones broke. first one melted because someone put it on top of my lamp (it was not me), second and third pairs’ ear pad leather ripped and the sound wasn’t contained anymore because the inner cusion wasnt harnessing the sound. now this time the right swivel broke and im getting fucking sick of these breaking because theyre really comfortable and i like the sound

i want a good pair of wireless headphones that i can use in the house and on the go, are comfortable on my ears and head, have good sound quality and bass, and aren’t made with cheap ass materials. these sony headphones used to be under $100 when i got my first pair and now they go for $180??? and the warranty is only for 30 days which is fucking bullshit, otherwise it’s considered “wear and tear” im sorry but unfortunately my household doesnt have a soldering iron to fix this. edit: my neighbor does but still i dont know if i trust myself since ive only soldered wires like once

i never threw away my old pairs with the ripped leather ear pads and i just bought new replacement ear pads for them that i’m going to gorilla glue on when they arrive.

but because the increase in price of these and no sign of cheap manufacturing getting better im thinking of switching headphones once the old pair i fix up inevitably break again in 11 months or something

what do you guys recommend? if the price is above $250 it better be a good investment or at least come with a 1 or 2 year warranty. my budget is flexible so long as im getting a quality product. my head is also pretty small for these things

i want

wireless/bluetooth

high quality sound with good bass and good highs. i want balanced sound where you can hear everything instead of it being muddled

comfortable ear pads

use for listening to music

doesnt break in a year

if over $250 has good materials and extended warranty options; good investment

[visualmemoryunit]

amazon sent me the wrong headphones

pro: theyre over a hundred dollars more expensive than the ones i actually payed for

con: i just. really dont like wireless headphones? so i probably wont use them because i just dont like wireless headphones

[eliasdrid]

this whole wireless earbuds research thing i had to go thru to get some ok wireless earbuds before college starts bc i keep putting my phone in my jean pockets and murdering wired earbuds reminded me i need to sit down and fix my sennheiser headphones someday because i love those beasts but one of the wires is :(

also just remembered about my "haunted" wireless headset which idk if ive ever talked about here. theyre fun! they used to be my dad's and they weren't working when I found them. i put them apart and fixed them and they have worked since but they have this charming sound effect that's like... as if you were hearing music in an empty room (slight echo)

[dykeyote]

Dearest Jedidiah and the Tonies perhaps? :)

calling him dearest jedidiah made me giggle i think its bc jedidiahs such a fancy name . makes me go hehehehe . the tonies r tricky for me to do mundane hcs for bc i struggle to have distinct hcs for them both separately i gotta pay more attention to those mfs on my relisten to form more characterization . so ill do u just a ton of jedidiah ones which is ez bc im crazy cray cray insane abt him

i think jedidiah takes seroquel when he gets on medication and gets therapy and shit . bc thats what i take and we are the same

he can play the piano because lucille got him to take lessons a lot when he was younger and he liked learning video game sountracks on them (: he hasnt played in a while but he was pretty good at it

he also can only use wired headphones because wireless ones stress him out hes constantly paranoid hes gonna drop them and break them

he has tons of watches on both of his wrists and most of them are analog but he has ONE digital watch and its a shitty little kids star wars watch that sydney got him thats always 14 minutes behind it doesnt serve purpose to help with his rituals he just likes having it on and its easy to hide the sentimental value with having it be with a ton of other watches

he mirrors video game dialogue a lot many of his go-to phrases are snatched from games he really likes and yvonne teases him for it a lot, sydney too when he catches them tho hes less of a gamer so its more rare

every time he plays a pokemon game or anything else with customizable characters he doesnt put in himself he formulates a whole oc with a general personality and feelings about things and then makes choices based on what he thinks the character he made would do

he really likes ferrets and weasels and stoats and other long creatures of that nature he researches them on occasion . he thinks theyre sweet and kinda wants a ferret as a pet but worries about how smelly they are

he collects both pokemon and magic the gathering cards . he likes collecting things if he can find something to collect and organize logically he WILL . but trading cards are a favorite because he likes putting them in binders with specific organizational styles

he listens to a lot of dnd podcasts (: hes often been too busy or shut off or nervous to join an actual dnd group but he ADORES dnd and has all the manuals and shit so its a nice way to deal w that interest . he gets very annoyed when the people on them dont follow the rules tho hes one of those types

hes tried to program a video game several times and every single time hes gotten stressed halfway through and given up on it . he randomly is like this would be suchh a cool idea but then he overwhelms himself . he does find it quite relaxing though so sometimes he works on random projects hes started so he can detense

he always wears clothes slightly too baggy for him . it started out intentional for comfort but now he just genuinely does not know what size clothes fit him so even if he wants to get something that fits him properly he wouldnt really know how

hes tried to write poetry before but hes failed every time due to being canonically too repressed for it . he just stares at the paper and then puts his pen down and stares at a clock for an hour

[pettydreamz]

anyone have good recommendations for wired headsets with ofc good sound quality and mic? should i ask this on main..???

i wanna be an audiophile but i dont think im there yet bc im not gonna be spending constantly for new headphones/headsets but i love learning about them. i have used the sony headphones xm4 & xm5 and theyre solid. but i absolutely love my sennheiser momentum 4 headphones, the anc is not as good as sony however the sound quality is just beautiful ofc you can customise the eq, like for me i'm a bass heavy girl. and god i love it soo much. now i am trying to research a new headphone/headset for my bf :3

it's interesting bc he likes wired headsets. i mean i dont mind them and i do find that the quality does change when it's either bluetooth/wireless than wired. but it's hard to find ones that striclty talk about good wired headsets. i mean most do both but i find a lot of them strictly transitioning to just wireless.

[korovamlecznybar]

lost the fucking airpods case

[horrorvampirebatbite]

i think its insane how impossible it is to buy decent wired earphones these days. i dont hate wireless ear/headphones theyre perfect for activity to me but i wouldnt wear them for like when im just sitting using my laptop. stop shoving wireless up my ass

[mysticmeadowscamp]

drawing smth again bc i have no self control and id like to know:

as someone who gets anxious around people , i like to have earbuds (headphones) in to listen to music bc if people noises too loud brain go >:(

does dee/anyone else do this and if so ,, are they on team wired headphones or airpods gang ? i will cry if one of them is a mf who disses wires bc wires gang for life 😔💔 /lh /j

i feel like dee would like wires bc they would get too nervous about losing the airpods (which is part of why i don’t like them) and also i’m hardcore projecting that they have a tic (i’m using that word loosely bc i cannot think of the right word so sorry if that’s wrong) of twirling the wire/spinning it when they’re with someone (eg. one headphone out while talking to remus and just absentmindedly spinning the wire in circles)

but yeah thank u for listening here are pictures i found that i thought u might like

i def imagine dee always wearing headphones, im fact i imagine sometimes even when theyre w the gang he has one earbud in playing music at low volume

and yes dee is def team wired headphones (for that exact same reason too dhdh) same as vee and roman

also the twisting the wire hc is So Valid im keepin it yea

remus, patton, and logan are team airpods. the first two monstly bc they excersise quite often. And i dont imagine Logan having airpods, but he does have wireless headphones

[robotpussy]

Dont do it! Wireless headphones are worse quality, less convenient, and they use lithium batteries that damage the environment. Depending on your price range i can recommend nice wired ones that would be a much better investment!

omg i didnt know that abt the batteries.... yea i was just looking i dont think id actually move on to wireless because what if they dont turn on and my music starts playing outloud... i still want like.... overhead/on ear headphones and i was considering koss porta pro because theyre wired and i hear theyre good quality considering the price they go for, but pls lmk what other headphones u think i should get!!!!

[nytfythfhtyf]

every company is bad no one is trustworthy no one cares about anything but money anymore the quality of all products is dramatically decreasing on purpose and if you want better things you have to pay insane amounts of money so the poor people buy the cheap shitty things and they break sooner and then they have to buy more now theyre trapped in the capitalism hell cycle and they dont have the option to fight back or boycott because they need those items to stay alive without going broke and all the companies care about is bleeding everyone dry and money and money and pay workers less spend less money on safe working conditions spend less money on quality materials brainwash the public into thinking company cares about them and the planet dying is their fault because theyre using straws and eating too much meat and youre fat and youre ugly so you have to buy our products to fix that but they dont work so you have to buy more and more to try to fix yourself and we made a new smartphone so were going to program your old phone to kill itself so you have to buy the new one also we took the headphone port out so you have to buy these shitty wireless earbuds and oops your phone got shattered because its made of 70% glass now you have to get another one and if you dont have enough money do do that and pay rent its your fault for spending on things that let you enjoy your life and you just need to work harder like us rich and powerful people and get as many jobs as you can and give up all your free time until you spend your whole life working yourself to exhaustion and then you die because you cant afford healthcare like a sick animal on a farm and the companies build a new store on top of your grave

LILY’s BIRTHDAY PARTY VLIVE

december 1st, 2020

you know the drill for nct dream birthday parties

they’re all at the long table, there’s balloons that spell “happy birthday lily” behind them

and they all have party hats (except jimin) and snacks and the cake on the table

jimin is seated in the middle, mark to her right, then chenji

to her left is renjun, hyuck, and then nomin

jimin: hiii czennies!!

and the rest of the boys do their shit yknow greeting the fans

hyuck: it’s our jimin’s birthday!!

and all the guys cheer but it’s so loud that jimin plugs her ears and wrinkles her face

hyuck: i remember when she was just a tiny baby :’)

jaemin: she’s grown so much :(

jeno: she used to be even shorter when we met her

renjun: even back then, we were all taller than her

jimin: today, i will be opening my members presents in front of czennies- we can all celebrate my birthday together!! sadly, mila unnie wasn’t able to though :(

chenle: mila noona got her an electric violin

mark: it’s so cool, seriously. and she played misfit on it as soon as she got it

hyuck: i was so shocked- she just knew it already without preparing

jisung: our jimin is talented~~

jimin: it wasn’t hard! i plan to cover dancing in the rain soon, since i helped compose it

a minute later, they start with the gift, youngest to oldest

jisung hands her a single card and everyone laughs

renjun: where’s your present?

jeno: ah, you know he’s always like this

jimin: *trying not to laugh* shh, let me read the car

jisung is just hiding his head in his hands, and the others and laughing quietly

jimin: ‘jimin... noona...’ ahhh, i hate being called that, this sounds so awkward?? anyway, ‘you’ve came a long way. it’s okay that you have grey hairs-‘ jisung!! WHY WOULD YOU TELL CZENNIES THAT

renjun then leans over while they’re all laughing and tries to count her grey hairs that actually exist. girlie’s got premature greyness 😔

jimin: ‘it’s okay that you have grey hairs and are grumpy a lot. you’re just becoming an old woman... but we still love you. happy birthday, from jisung’ you’re dying later tonight, jisung park. say goodbye to czennies now while you have the chance

once they settle down a little, chenle hands her his gift

mark: is there not a card?

chenle: she doesn’t need one

everyone’s laughing again and mark’s is super loud and cute and lily smiles while looking at him

jimin: let’s see what’s inside

everyone is looking over curiously

jisung: i already know what he’s gotten her. he wanted it to be the most expensive gift

jimin: you dummy, i don’t need- OH MY GOD

she’s holding a light grey purse and her mouth is gaped open

jeno: what is it?

yknow when they’re all confused and making those confused noises? yeah they’re all doing that

jimin: YOU SERIOUSLY GOT ME A GIVENCHY ANTIGONA PURSE?? THEYRE TOO EXPENSIVE

chenle: i know grey is your favorite color, so i got that~~

hyuck: HES TOO RICH

renjun: HE HAD TO OUTDO US ALL

jaemin: HE DIDNT EVEN HAVE A CARD

jimin: thank you so much, lele!!

and then she stands to hug him while he’s dolphin laughing

chenle: honestly, your purses all break and are too cheap... this one is supposed to be sturdy and hold a lot without breaking

hyuck: it’s funny when they break at the airport

jimin: shut up... jaemin oppa?

jaemin passes her a card and she freezes suddenly

jimin: will this make me cry? your cards are always so touching

jaemin: just readdd

chenle: she’s going to cry, i know it

jimin: ‘our lovely jimin’ WAHHH THIS IS GOING TO MAKE ME CRY

renjun: just read, it’s okay!

jimin: ‘watching you grow up has been so strange. when i met you, you were such a baby. you were someone i wanted to protect, and you still are. you’re my little sister, and it’s been an honor to grow up with you, to perform with you, and be part of your family. you’re our most precious member, and i love you so much. let’s be together for a long time. happy birthday, koala.’

she was tearing up durinf the letter and you could hear it in her voice but at the end she began to cry more and covered her hands with her eyes as the others slightly malfunction cuz they don’t know what to DO

jaemin: don’t cry, jimin-ah!!

hyuck: get her a tissue! it’s okay~~

mark: *in english* hey, it’s okay! don’t cry, lils *puts his arm around her*

chenle: i told you she would cry

renjun: *helps to dry her eyes with his sleeves*

jeno: jaemin, why did you do this??

jisung: open the present, stop crying!!

^^ and all of those are just kinda all at once it’s so chaotic

jimin: *laughing* it’s okay, i just love you. oppa, give me a huggg

soon she’s opening his gift and she gives a great big smile

jimin: i was going to buy this myself!

jaemin: i had to get it for you~~

she holds up a new camera and even though her eyes are still a little teary she looks so happy

jimin: manager noona, can you help set this up? i want to take a picture with everyone after this!!

soon it’s time for hyuck’s gift, and she’s trying not to laugh as she opens the card

jimin: i’m most excited for this card...

when she opens it she LAUGHS and she shows it to mark who laughs even more

the others all clamor to see it and CACKLE when they do. she holds it up to the camera

the card just has all of hyuck’s recent pcs in it and says ‘you’re welcome for this card which has made your birthday wonderful’

jimin: donghyuck oppa, i love you so much. you’re the love of my life

hyuck: 😳 stop lying, stupid girl

she’s already opening his gift and laughs when she sees it. it’s noise cancelling headphones

hyuck: you were yelling at us recently that we were being too loud and you wished your noise cancelling headphones werent broken

jimin: i usually only use my earbuds, but these are so nice!! are they wireless??

hyuck: yeah, since you never use airpods i thought this was the closest you’d go

jimin: thank you oppa!! i love you so much

hyuck: i love you too

when she opens jeno’s card she grins

jimin: *in english* ‘little lilly,’ *in korean* ‘happy birthday. it’s been so many years since we met, and you’re still as special as you were then. stop growing so that you can be our baby koala forever. love you, jeno’

they all applaud, and jimin is pouting

jimin: i’m only you and jaemin’s baby, stop acting like i’ll be a baby forever!

jisung: taeyong hyung says that you’re his baby too

jimin: okay. i’m only nomin and taeyong oppa’s baby

jeno gives her a large gift bag and she pulls out some blankets

jimin: ahhhh, thank you oppa!! these are so soft!! i love blankets!!

jeno: keep looking, there’s something else~~

jimin: *gasps* l’interdit?! omo, i’ve wanted to try this for so long!! you all know i love givenchy... doyoung oppa got me givenchy sneakers today

mark: it smells really good

jimin: ?! did you all try it already?

chenji starts laughing and then it’s OBVIOUS what happened

jeno: we wanted to test it!!

jimin: *sprays it on herself* ooo, it does smell quite nice. thank you, oppa, i really love it

renjun: after you read the card, i have to go get the present

jimin: ?!

mark: is it too big for the room?

jeno: huh?

renjun: just read, jimin-ah~~

jimin: ‘jimin, i still remember when we met. you looked so scared in the practice rooms, but you still smiled at us all. i’m happy we see that smile every day, even when you’re feeling bad. happy birthday, jiminnie, we love you’ awwwh, junnie oppa... thank you

she leans on him, smiling

renjun: you’re welcome. but let me get the gift

hyuck: i don’t know what it is, does anyone?

no one knows what it is, but they’re even more suspicious when a manager leaves with him.

renjun, from a distance: cover her eyes!!

mark scoots closer to her and covers her eyes, making her pout

jimin: i want to seeeee

and then all the dreamies GASP which has her freaking out

jimin: what is it?! mark, let me go, i want to see!!

when she does see, her eyes go wide.

jimin: woahhh...

when it gets brought in, even all the fans watching are like O_O

renjun’s gift is... a huge floral arrangement with... WHITE LILLIES

LIKE THE INSTAGRAM POST MYSTERY

jimin: these are gorgeous... thank you, oppa

he hugs her, smiling

renjun: you really like them?

jimin: of course i do! you know white lillies are my favorite... and the daisies and leaves are gorgeous

hyuck: we should put them behind the table, so everyone can see them

jaemin: those are really pretty, renjun

jisung: woahhh

chenle: mark hyung looks upset- that’ll be hard to follow LMAO

hyuck: *smug* i think his will be good...

mark looks embarrassed handing her the card and starts to LAUGH

jimin: *in english* ‘lils, i hope the day has been better than every other one. i don’t wanna be weird and write as long a letter as i planned, so i’ll just shorten it. you’re one of the funniest, most talented people i’ve ever met, and i knew that even when we were little, shy trainees. i’m happy about all the time we’ve spent together and all the time we will have in the future, performing and growing by each other’s sides. happy birthday, m.l.’

at that point everyone is clowning mark because he got sentimental and sweet and mark and lily BOTH feel embarrassed-ish

jimin: thank you, markie oppa. it means a lot

mark: LMAO you’re welcome... it was nothing

hyuck: open your gift!!

he throws her a small box and she quirks an eyebrow

jimin: what, no puzzle? or an empty picture frame?

hyuck: what about a bible?

renjun: or an english dictionary?

mark: ahhhh. why are you all being like this

hyuck: don’t worry, jimin-ah, you’ll like this...

she opens the present and is met with a light blue tiffany’s box

jimin: no way. this is a joke. you didn’t get me anything from tiffany’s

mark: just open it!!

jimin: *opens it and just stares for a while*

and all the guys are wondering what’s in it and they’re all like woah.

jimin: oh my god mark

mark: do you like it?

jimin: of COURSE i do oh my god

she holds up a necklace with three charms on it. one that looked like a tag and another that was an ornate key and then a sagittarius charm. she’s smiling so big

mark: look at the other side, i got it engraved

jimin: ‘happy birthday, lils. m.l.’ oppa this is so gorgeous... help me put it on?

she lifted her hair and he fastened the clasp

hyuck: i told him to get you jewelry but he thought this up himself. i was surprised

everyone started to agree because mark is horrible at giving gifts

jaemin: it’s so pretty!

mark: haha i’m glad you like it

jimin: i absolutely love it! i cant believe it- i hoped you’d be the one person who didn’t spend much money on me. you know i hate people spending money on me

renjun: you deserve it, though

mark: it was nothing... i was just scared you wouldn’t like it

she gives mark a hug from the side, eyes closed and head on his chest

they all talked a bit more, the guys taking a bunch of the snacks, before they sang happy birthday to her and served cake

jimin: thank you guys, really... it means so much

jeno: you know we all love you

chenle: totally

he tHEN SMASHED JIMIN’S CAKE INTO HER FACE AND THEIR MANAGER SNAPS A PHOTO ON HER NEW CAMERA AS SOON AS IT HAPPENS

jimin: ZHONG CHENLE-

chenle already started running, but before chasing him, jimin says goodbye to czennies

then the rest of them closed the live

[yuriphoriia]

This is a “small” vent, it’s not triggering just me talking about how hard life is for dumb reasons in all caps.

You think your day was bad? I have to do class work today because I’m doing remove learning again and I’m already behind, my wireless ear buds are broken and apparently apple couldn’t afford to put a headphone jack into their recent models, and I can’t even go to buy new ones until whenever I go back out (I CAN’T DRIVE)

And I can’t listen to music without my headphones so how am I supposed to cope with my crippling anxiety and intrusive thoughts now?? I CANNOT DRAW WITHOUT MY MUSIC THIS IS A CRISIS. I AM AN ARTIST, I NEED MUSIC TO FOCUS BECAUSE ONCE MY ADHD MEDS WEAR OFF HOW ELSE AM I SUPPOSED TO STAY ON TRACK???? AND A03 HASN’T ACCEPTED MY INVITATION YET AND I HAVE TO WAIT 4 MORE DAYS. UNTIL THEN IM STUCK WITH WATTPAD. I CANT WAIT FOR A03 TO START WRITING BECAUSE I HAVE TOO MANY IDEAS AND I WANT TO PUBLISH THEM ALREADY. AND I STILL HAVE CLASS WORK FOR LIKE THREE OF MY TEACHERS STILL. (Even if I could wait till Monday) AND I APPARENTLY HAVE TO PARTICIPATE IN AT LEAST ONE COLLABORATIVE ACTIVITY WITH CLASS MATES AT SOME POINT THIS YEAR. I HAVEN’T HAD NEW HUMAN CONTACT OTHER THAN LIKE 2 PEOPLE, AND ITS OVER ZOOM AND I HAVE NEVER USED ZOOM BECAUSE I USED MICROSOFT TEAMS LAST YEAR. I’M TOO AWKWARD FOR THIS. AND I HAVEN’T TOLD MY GRANDPARENTS THAT IM NON-BINARY YET SO THEY STILL USE SHE/HER PRONOUNS FOR ME. AND IM EVEN MORE SCARED BECAUSE THEY AREN’T YOUNG THEYRE IN THEIR LIKE MID TO LATE 50’S IMAGINE THEIR REACTIONS THEY PROBABLY THINK ITS A TREND OR SOMETHING. AND I ALWAYS END UP FALLING IN LOVE WITH MY FRIENDS ONLY TO HIDE IT BECAUSE ITS WEIRD AND EVERY-TIME I CONFESS TO ANYONE I GET REJECTED AND IT PAINS ME EVEN MORE- THEN MY BEST FRIEND FALLS IN LVOE WITH ME THEN BREAKS UP WITH ME BECAUSE THEY WEREN’T READY. WHICH I RESPECTED BUT I GENUINELY CRIED FOR A FEW DAYS. EVEN THOUGHT WE’RE ON GOOD TERMS IT STILL HURTS- AND I’VE ALREADY HAD LIKE 4 BREAKS DOWNS IN A TIME SPAN OF 2 DAYS. SCHOOL STARTED 2 DAYS AGO.

anyway, how’s your life been, mine has been great 😊

[goodnightwindy]

wired headphones [ and sometimes wireless , but it's less common i think ] can literally be bought for cheap from the dollar store and theyre great. i bought my current pair for like 15 bucks and theyre actually really good for that price so please im begging u to just use headphones !!!!! god

i'm literally begging people to relearn how to use earbuds and headphones. i don't wanna hear your fucking tiktok while im waiting for my flight.
