Today a soldier has died… one of the best. We are here to mourn the loss. He was still young, but was good at his job. Perhaps one day, we can avenge this fallen lad, but right now we have to use what we can. It is with a heavy heart and much sadness I say… My headphones died. 
It was my favorite gamer headset too, and now I have to use my older less-good pair. R.I.P. good headset: 2023-2025
I feel the same way every time I finish off a jar of honey-roasted peanuts…the emptiness inside (inside the jar and inside my mind) is heartwrenching. 
you know, you can still refill those jars with nuts, whatever kind you want.
just like a pringles can.
Meanwhile me stepping on my cheaper than cheap no-brand earbuds on the floor and breaking them for the 3rd time this month and replacing them with another pair of the same really bad but functional earbuds

How do earbuds cause an ear infection?
There are two ways that earbuds might cause an ear infection:
They can trap earwax in the ear canal and push it further up. This may result is a buildup of earwax that causes an ear infection to develop.
Earbuds can also trap moisture and fluid in the ears. This can create a warm, moist environment in which the bacteria that cause an ear infection can start to thrive.
Just say NO to earbuds.
that got me thinking another way to get infected…
everything you touch from door handles to toilets and then grab ur earbuds and take them out then put them in your ear again - gross .
I don’t like things in my ears anyway, it just feels weird to me.
Headphones are just better too, much more comfortable and clean
