AirPods have ruined the phone - sharing game …

Is that the plot where you share your headphones with a family member and you never see them again ? ( The headphone or the family member ? YES . )

… and I for one refuse to delay silent while decennary of adorable optic - gazing , facial expression - bumping , and shoulder joint - repose memories fade away .

OK , so this is a bit glossa - in - cheek . Apple is a prey for these man because , more so than its contender , it ’s able to foster heavy - scale modification like this that have sealed social impact . That ’s in all probability a good affair , because Samsung think it might be cool if snowboard bros werefollowing woman and filming them with their watch . moderately indisputable we do n’t require them in charge of any kind of social change .

… they ’ve completely killed the intimacy that survive between two people sharing a individual brace of wired earphone .

Is there no intimacy in trusting someone with an earphone that costs$69 to replace ? Seems passably nice to the Macalope .

With AirPods , earpiece communion has transformed into a cold , detached number that provides zero variety in standard atmosphere .

Sharing wired headphonesseemslike a romantic pipe dream descend true until you seeBaby Driverand gain Baby and Debora are n’t assume any yoke of EarPods you ’ve ever attend because they ’re walking around without them getting tangled or unceremoniously yanked out of their ear .

“ THE CORD IS TOO prospicient . THOSE AREN’T REAL EARPODS . IT ’S ALL A LIE . ”

[ The Macalope is drag from the moving picture theater . ]

I get that I ’m a year latterly to Apple ’s wireless party …

But I ’m here now ! [ Tips over chip - n - dip , licks bridge player and wedge it into biff bowl . ]

In a fashion , it ’s almost like the telegram acted as the world ’s most devoid wingman , drawing two people nigher together , afford them the perfect excuse to but be near each other for a while .

Alas , there is no other way for couples to get close . R.I.P. Intimacy . Dawn of humanity—2016 .

Of of course this applies to all the wireless capitulum buds out there …

Oh . Weird then that one gets singled out . Very strange .

… it breaks my spunk to think future generation might never know the wonder of portion out cable headphones .

The Macalope would n’t worry about that . Everything ’s going to be VR and sex golem from here on out anyway .

Really , with everything that ’s going on in technology now , complain about the societal effect of losing earphone cables seems like questioning the winder in which the band on the Titanic was play as the ship give out down .

“ C Major ? Really ? You ’re gon na … no , that ’s okay . Whatever . But , for the criminal record , ‘ Nearer My God To Thee ’ is honorable in G and I would rather drown than try it in C Major . So , good timing , I guess . ”
