The following is from www.woot.com Steve Able Planet Sound Clarity Noise Canceling Headphones Able Planet Sound Clarity Noise Canceling Headphones USD $49.99 $5 Shipping CONDITION: New PRODUCT: 1 Able Planet NC500SC Sound Clarity Noise Canceling Headphones YOU GUYS ON THIS PLANE HAVE IT ALL WRONG. My headphones aren’t protecting me from you. They’re protecting you from me. Everyone who gets noise canceling headphones focuses on the noise canceling. “Oooh,” they think to themselves erroneously, “Now I’ll never hear anything I don’t want to hear while I listen to music! This will TOTALLY negate the screaming baby on the plane or the muttering doomsday cultist on the bus!” But I didn’t buy these Able Planet Sound Clarity Noise Canceling Headphones to block out the noise around me with state of the art active noise cancellation. I bought them to block out my music from the outside. See, I listen to some pretty cutting edge stuff, like this new Cee Lo jam. Have you heard it? I’ll let you find it yourself on YouTube if you’re adventurous enough. It might be a little “NSFW” for your tastes. I don’t expect you musical simpletons to appreciate it, so I do my best to shield your precious ears from cultural relevance with these full-size ear cups. Sometimes I just turn the active noise cancellation off to save battery life; these things work as normal headphones too, and that can be enough to save you fools from hearing art. So scream away, infant too small to be flying. Spill on over into my seat, man much too large to be flying. Spend the entire flight trying to talk to me about your life as an important person with some company I’ve never heard of, lady. You can do so without any fear of hearing something you might disagree with.
