Headphones suck

After a lengthy hiatus and another step down the Path of Righteousness, I've returned to share my experiences with the world.

I would consider myself somewhat of a music buff. I've learned to appreciate all forms and styles of music. My previous sentence is loaded and will lead to future blog posts. Consider this one to be an initial installment in a multiple part series which will be uniquely titled at a later date.

Anyway

I, like millions of others, enjoy listening to music while working on the computer or surfing the internet. For the past several months, I've been using a cheap pair of headphones for my digital audio experience and I didn't realize how crappy they truly were until I tried my 4.1 Quadraphonic speaker system again. They allow the sounds of a driving drum line or a screaming guitar solo to engulf you.

Ok, the real reason why speakers are better than headphones is the lack of wires.
Let me explain.

Imagine me, in my rolling office chair, with a pair of headphones on, hunched over with my head nearly touching the floor, and the damn headphone wire tangled up in the chairs wheel. Forget me taking the headphones off, that would make way too much sense. Instead, I'm gonna shimmy the chair around with my ass in an attempt to unroll and untangle the wire from the wheel. Genius, I know.

After nearly being decapitated practicing the afore mentioned method, I chose to use speakers.

Now my head is safe from the evil headphones and I can serenade the entire house with cheesy 80's hair band music.
