Pioneer Steel Wheels Stereo Headphones – $24.99

Thursday, April 28, 2011

I consider myself a modern-day cultural anthropologist.

Humanity’s best enjoyed with some kind of filter to drown it out.

The problem with modern society is people are more connected with the world than ever was possible before, but they’re more detached from one another. It’s increasingly difficult to form real, lasting relationships with people. Just look at these people on the bus! Everyone’s got their nose buried in an iPad or Kindle or Nook or something. No one’s talking to one another! It’s a crime, I tell ya.

Not me though. The new upper middle class bourgeoisie can keep their high-tech diversions from humanity. I’m a man of the people. You won’t see me staring at an iPhone or even a BOOK. I don’t need a screen in front of me; I’ll mingle with the “common” man. The most interesting conversations happen here, in the minutes between screen time.

Hmm? Oh, these are my Pioneer Steel Wheels Stereo Headphones. Keep ‘em on at all times. They’ve got an on-ear closed monitor design, they’re lightweight, and they’ve got clear, ringing highs and skull-vibrating lows. You never know when one of these idiots is going to interrupt your study of the human condition asking about the time or where the next stop is or some stupid thing.
