Are Headphones degenerate and antisocial or just a way of colouring dull everyday life?

So... I kinda feel bad calling myself trad and putting these things in my ear and nodding my head on the train. Should I take them out and listen to... LIFE?

I have to use them or else I would go crazy listening to the niggers when I'm on the bus. When I forget my headphones the niggers drive me crazy with all their bullshit

Depends on what you're doing. I use headphones all the time mostly to tune others out at my leisure in crowded public places. Listening to "life" is just boring unless you're actively interacting with other people on the train. It's different when you're ina crowded public place as opposed to going on a hike; I rarely use music when outdoors because I like to soak in both the visual and audial aspects of nature.

I always have them in my ears in public. Sometimes just to avoid talking to people. When I do listen to music I keep the volume very low so I can still hear everything going on around me. You should never no matter where you are in public let yourself be relaxed enough to where you drown out your surroundings.

life sounds like shit
music is better

>lowers awareness so niggers can suckerpunch you

I never use headphones because I drive a car like a real first world citizen and there I can blast my nigga music as loud as I want.

it's the perfect 'fuck off, I don't want to speak with you' tool

Should we strive to beter ourselves, even if the challenge is having to listen to such noises? A good friend could be just next to us, yet we are captive of music an d other more pleasant noises most of the time...

Life is so much better when you headphones on when you can listen to music I wish our lives had an actual soundtrack following us

dang, sorry for all the horrible mistakes..I should never trust my laptop keyboard.

>walking in nature
Yes take them out and enjoy the earth in it's pure state
>walking in a city or in any public area
By all means leave them in, all you're missing is cars honking, children screaming and people generally being annoying as fuck.

They're a necessity for me because I like to listen to fashy podcasts without people throwing rocks at me.

Headphones are so you don't bother others
Your music is what's degenerate, if anything

try it on Monday morning and let us know how you get on. Especially if you're in London and have to use the tube

It's the Übermensch thing to do if you do it right. Listen to a book while doing manual labour; brain and brawn at once. Remember to have your mic capture background sounds so you're never off guard.

Wanna know what's degenerate? Not owning a car.

>wear headphones
>never listen to anything on them

Its a good way to deter conversation whilst listening to everything around you when on public transport.

this

no one want's to hear the sound of filth cruising around cities

>implying that music doesn't enhance nature

keeps the Oxfam chuggers away too

If you don't have at least one ear focused on the world while you're outside, you're a fucking retard with no situational awareness and you deserve to be knocked out by niggers playing "pranks".

I listen to music when going for a run or biking, the sound of cars irritates me.
t. City fag

theres nothing to listen to besides arabic in the metro

whats this about microphone capturing background sounds?

Last year i bought some RHA T20. They cost over 300$. I delivered them back because they had a really low volume, you need an amplifier to really use them. The best earplugs i've had was some Sennheisers i bought on dealextreme for three dollars. It is a really simple technology which shouldn't be expensive.

Moar

Around blacks, never relax. If I were around niggers, I wouldn't wear ear buds since they'd fuck with my situational awareness.

Nothing says "anti-social" like over-the-ear headphones.

I hit a bike while walking because I had noise cancelling headphones and couldn't hear the poor lad honk at me. Basically don't be completely oblivious to sounds is what I meant. I should have worded it better,

If you're going to buy some headphones i recommend Dr Sennheiser's headphones, another great company created during the third Reich

Get real headphones instead of normie earbud shit

I wear them to avoid contact with people.

Screw ear buds. I go over-ear anytime I go for groceries. Keep them on but music off when I'm on the sidewalks or riding the train. Over-er are est way to say "FUCK OFF."

You guys are worst than women in regards of over-thinking stuff that doesn't need attention.

I need to have music on at all times or I go crazy. Not being able to look at porn and not having my headphones/music were the worst two parts of rehab last year.

I got so tired of people saying hi to me and trying to talk to me while I'm trying to walk somewhere I can't listen to music in public anymore and wear earbuds or headphones.

Also bought some Lightning headphones. Buy headphones that plug into your phones USB port, whatever type it uses. China makes them for all types. Sounds better. Not that expensive.

Ew, I can see her nipples.

You ask, but you already know the answer

Headphones are okay, but buying anything from (((apple))) is degenerate because they give money to the SPLC

You cant drive a car without also taking the train.

I dont wear headphones in public, in case of an emergency.

Ohh of course. I thought you were referring to some program that splices in audio captured from microphone into the ears for some situational awareness.

SPLC is good.

Keep the volume low enough to where you can hear your surroundings. You shouldn't be blasting your music anyway, hearing is important

This. Would suck to get smashed by a car because you had to listen to music

Listen to audiobooks. I tend to spend over an hour driving every day, that has done wonders for my intellectual life.

Yeah, I use the tube daily and it is so flipping awkward not having something to do. esp the overground trains set out like pic rel. because you are opposite someone so are forced to look down or at your phone to avoid eye contact for the second/third/fourth time.

How can a person look at this picture and deny that Kaczynski was right?

I absolutely adore silence, so when I'm out I'd rather listen to music as I live in a big city filled with cars and people who don't even speak the language.

If by life you mean a bunch of Pakis yelling in goat language and blacks clicking their tongues.

The only problem is that you should also never relax around these animals and headphones may block out the sound of an incoming threat.
