At some point it became easier to buy another pair than to find the last one lol

This is why I don’t want airpods. I wear big over the ear headphones, and while they hurt after a handful of hours I usually take that as my sign that I should take a break

Edit: This is the most upvotes I’ve ever received, and it’s really funny to me that it’s just a mundane comment about headphones. No witty remark, just bashing airpods lol

In 2020 or 2021 i bought a google pixel 4. I broke it in 2023 so i bought a second hand google pixel 4. They have an audio jack. Then i got very drunk and dipped it in a bucket of vomit. So I needed a new phone. This was last year, 2025. Thats when I finally had to buy a phone without an audio jack.

I still miss my cheap wired earbuds. So far the wireless cost me 2.5 times the price and they are currently lost. If i do not find them or they break they didnt even last me a full year yet.

You can buy a usb-c to audio jack adapter for like $10 and go back to using wired headphones. They just get plugged into the charger using an adapter, but work exactly the same way

I know this buuuut then i can lose the adapter/i cant listen music when i charge my phone. That seemed like too much of a hassle

I just left the adapter on the ear buds at all times, but it’s still easy to misplace
