To post a lolwut for Feersty is like building a sandcastle to stop continental drift.

Hrmm..those seem nice. Do you think they will be good for the noise cancellation part? It doesnt seem like they are active noise cancellers, but maybe thats not necessary for over the ear as much?

So, OP(Sorry I forgot your real name) what did you end up doing?

How did I miss this?
Some things will never change, and for that I'm grateful.

This is the secret. I keep a list of shit everyone I buy presents for needs/wants throughout the year. When it comes time to buy shit, I have great lists, and they think I'm the most thoughtful sunuva in the world... When in reality, I'm just organized.

Nothing touches Bose QC15. I've tried them all and know my audio shit. If I remember before my next trip, I'll be buying a pair. I always remember the night before my trips and want to punch myself in the dick.
They're kinda made like shit, and the sound quality isn't out of this world, but nothing compares to their noise cancellation.

Ended up going with a tennis bracelet. she liked it. As for the headphones, I couldnt decide which was the bigger ripoff, so I ended up getting something different. Maybe I'll revisit come fathers day if he doesnt buy any of his own. It just seems to me like 300$ is a shitton to be spending on headphones. I'm not really sure whether he was after the noise canceling more, or the good listening experience. Probably the former

Tiffany's necklace went over well. That's all I had to give her though, she had like 7 little things for me. We opened our presents in front of her family, so I kind of felt like a douche when all she had was one tiny box to open. One big present is better than a couple little ones though IMO...hopefully she felt the same way!
