24 Struggles That Are Way, Way Too Real For Anyone Who Uses Headphones

    *Pulls headphones out of pocket* *Spends next two hours untangling*

    1. Headphones are addictive, so leaving them behind somewhere is literally the worst.

    FUCK I LEFT MY HEADPHONES AT CELESTE'S HOUSE AND NO ONE THINKS THIS IS SERIOUS BESIDES ME LIKE I CANT LIVE WITHOUT THEM SHIT MAN

    2. And when you're struggling to find misplaced ones, the whole world becomes a dark, dark place.

    I HAVENT SEEN MY HEADPHONES SINCE YESTERDAY AND NO ONE KNOWS WHERE THEY ARE. I CANT LIVE WITHOUT HEADPHONES. MY LIFE IS OFFICIALLY OVER.

    3. Most of the time however, they're right in front of you.

    4. But it seems whenever your attention strays from them, they like to misbehave.

    Really bro, two seconds later and this happens #headphoneproblems

    5. And god knows untangling them is just the start.

    6. So sometimes you have to bring out the big guns.

    7. You just wish that sometimes they would give you a break.

    Just once can I throw on headphones without looking at the L and the R every time

    8. And not play evil mind games.

    my headphones dont have L or R but instead 2 R's??? Um

    9. Or fall apart.

    10. Like this.

    11. OR THIS 😪 😪😪😪

    12. But nothing compares to this torture.

    13. BECAUSE HOW THE HELL ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO LISTEN TO A SONG PROPERLY?

    14. Basically, the loss of a pair of headphones is a massive tragedy.

    15. One that both you and your bank account suffer.

    I need some @wearefrends headphones but dang they are expensive

    16. Because you use them so much, the volume keeps creeping up bit by bit.

    iPhones now tell you when your headphones are too loud. What next? Siri going to tell me to empty the dishwasher?

    17. So you know your hearing is definitely taking a hit.

    18. Even if you're wearing the biggest headphones in the world – you know, the ones that blatantly say "FUCK OFF, DON'T SPEAK TO ME" – someone will speak to you.

    19. Resulting in this, every. god. damn. time.

    20. When you manage to get in the zone undisturbed, it's sometimes difficult to get out.

    21. And whether it's being really into a song, or shocked at a plot twist in an audiobook, it's safe to say you look like a proper idiot about 50% of the time.

    22. Because of your headphone habits, people, especially family, think you're unsociable.

    "take off your headphones and go socialize with the family" lol bye

    23. Which is probably true tbh.

    24. Because headphones, for all their faults, give you one thing we all need: an escape to our own little world.
