I own an outstanding pair of headphones. I bought them at Target several years ago for around thirty dollars. They have served me well, I can't count the number of hours I used them while mowing the lawn. Unfortunately, they are now useless in all devices except my stereo receiver. After tripping over them while plugged in, I broke the plug in half. It shouldn't have been a big deal, they were showing their age anyway. Time for a new pair.
So I hit the headphone aisle and look for a comparable set, find one and purchase. They sound terrible. They're no better than the free set I got with my CD player which they certainly should be. But of course I can't take them back, afterall they work. I just have to listen to crappy sound on rainy days like this when I have nothing better to do than complain about bad headphones.
Next time I'm going to watch where I walk.
