I trashed my headphones, man

elfsThis afternoon, after driving home from the train station, I saw that my headphones had fallen out of my coat pocket, onto the floor of the car, and dangled out onto the road. For about ten minutes, they'd been dragged along the macadam at freeway speeds.
Those were my best headphones, too, an old-school pair of Sony Fontopia Plus. The speakers were ripped off; only the shells remain, pitted scars of plastic that will never again play either Mozart or Katy Perry. While the sound quality probably never matched something high-end like Skullcandy, Sony had this rubber coating on the wires that prevented them from ever getting tangled, no matter how bady I mistreated them.
Bummer.
