Warrior Is About To Die

Hello, I’m an old man. My house smells like onions and wool. And I recommend you don’t buy today’s Everglide S-500 Professional Headphones. First of all, they say these phones sound great with music despite the fact that they were originally marketed for gaming. Music, bah. The stuff they listen to nowadays is like somebody’s put one of those zippered jackets in a dryer. It’s all booming and banging and somebody talking about butts for seven minutes. What ever happened to Wolfman Jack? He even had a cartoon show there for a while! It wasn’t so long ago, you remember it, right?

zzzzWhat? Oh, sorry, nodded off there. Let me tell you another thing about the Everglide S-500 Professional Headphones, they’ve got a frequency response of 20Hz to 20,000 Hz. Back when I was your age we were lucky to get one solitary frequency. We had AM, you know. I didn’t even get an 8-Track until after college! Try caring about The Five Inch Nails when you grew up with that inbetween stations! We didn’t need some ultra-light membrane or some over-sized circumaural leather muffs. Which reminds me, have you seen my wife? She was supposed to be bringing dinner.

That’s right, some people love each other enough to take care of each other! Not like that Madonna Cobain crap. That’s why people go out playing games at those arcades all hours of the day, because no one cares about them at home! You think you’d need a 3.5mm stereo plug for headphones or a 3.5mm plug for the included clip-on microphone otherwise? Optimum noise isolation? I call it optimum waste of time, is what I call it. Why can’t people just enjoy the public television broadcasts of Frankie Valli? My TV speakers still sound great. Or the great work Mike Love is doing with all those twenty year old backup musicians who work for The Beach Boys? Look at him up there, ready to fall over at any second. That’s excitement! You want excitement? You’re looking at it right there!

So put that Everglide S-500 Professional Headphones back in the included bag and stop pretending that you’re the next Johnny Unitas. I bought my son an Activation Home Video System once, you know, I read up on these things. I killed six of them Asteroids once, all by myself. I didn’t need headphones. I was drunk, too, whole time. Kids today.
