06/10 - Spineroony Saturday!

[humbleturker]

What were the headphones that broke? Are you looking for closed back or open back? Are you going to wear these only inside or outside as well?

They were used for gaming primarily. Closed/open doesn't matter. Inside primarily. I have bluetooth workout headphones already.

Someone needs to set-up a communications website for Requestors so we can let them know that if they want people to do their really poorly paid surveys and stuff to bring them up on Saturdays. That way when we're here starving we can kill ourselves on 2 hour long bubble surveys that pay 1$.

 

[It's Gamera!]

I can't use the Sony 7506s at the computer because the fucking cord makes me furious. It's so annoying. But they sound great.

Yeah, if it weren't for that huge ass umbilical cord I'd be wearing those 24/7. They're relatively cheap and sound great.

Oh shit.
I will be at some point next week.
Sounds delicious.

It really is. Papa Johns did a perfect job at making you tell yourself you're a fat slob for eating it

you shouldn't be doing that
but if you do, make sure to leave them a 5/5 pay rating on Turkopticon if it was at least fun

I don't but super slow days like today make them tempting. But usually I do well to remember not to reward poor pay.

Honestly, I'd go for these guys

They're probably the best value for the money right now, and it's a good introduction into quality headphones. You have to realize what you like and don't like about headphones and then go looking for that once you know your taste. You can see where these fall short or what you enjoy about them, and then upgrade from there and wait for the Christmas sales when you can find a ton of headphone deals.

Using these right now for the computer. They're great, although I think the Sony 7506s sound a little better. But the Sony cord is so annoying I can't use them here.

cheddarburger pizza from PJ's?

Doesn't that have pickles on it?

I find pickles weirder on a pizza than pineapples

I read that as gambling. off to clean my glasses...

 

[humbleturker]

Yeah, it's pretty much the Sony vs. Philips at this point. Philips is cheaper and the cord for the Sony does look annoying @Kerek ...hmmm...

Literally if your computer is on the right of you, you will want to murder someone after an hour. If it's on the left you might be okay.

if the cord is too annoying for you to use at a computer, where do you even use it then?

It's on the left.

For my TV (which is in a different room) or sometimes my iPod.

@Kerek

"Alright, fine, we'll do that."

 

[It's Gamera!]

I've considered doing this for my Sony pair, but I'm lazy. But the option is there.
