Ha ha ha ha! )<\/p>\n<p>For some funny reason, earphones never seem to last with me, even though I am a big fan of theirs. I mean, most people seem to have this problem of the earphones being too big or too small for the ears, they keep popping out ( never heard a case where they keep sliding in and got stuck inside the earhole, though.) I can&#8217;t handle headphones. The big ones give me a headache, plus, especially in the summer, they get my ears all hot and sweaty underneath. The smaller ones &#8220;leak&#8221;, you can&#8217;t put on anything at decent volume without half the world listening in, and face it, that tinny sound from someone else&#8217;s headphones is <i>really<\/i> too much, especially when you are in a public place and are talking to somebody. ( Believe it or not,  I have civic sense, at least when it comes to music! ) But ok, like I said, the shelf-life of the average earphone-set decreases tremendously when I use them. Dunno why &#8211; my volume level doesn&#8217;t cross 6 (the average being 4). <\/p>\n<p>I must have used some 4 sets of Aiwa earphones with my walkman, and now with the discie (does a word like &#8220;discie&#8221; exist?), this is the second pair to go bad, and both the sets were pretty good.<\/p>\n<p>And I have my fads too. I can&#8217;t handle earphones with rubber muffs, <i>they<\/i> keep popping out. And no phones with equal left and right lengths for me, the best ones are those with a short left and a long right, perfect to wear around the neck.<\/p>\n<p>I am using my blog to discuss designs of earphones. Jeezalouise!!!<\/p>\n<p>Now where do I get the new pair from? Abids? Cheap, but won&#8217;t last too long. MW, Lifestyle, as usual doesn&#8217;t carry the ones I want in stock. Let&#8217;s see. Will have to check out some shops I know.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks, <a href=\"http:\/\/rulinian.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">rulinian<\/a>, for the funny start to the week. :-)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The earphones to my discman are busted.
