Bloated and bleeding
The system works
It is with great shame that I announce the flushing of my airpod down the toilet with some shit.
Let the record state that I also reflexively dunked my hand into the spiraling shitwater in an unsuccessful attempt to recover my shit-and-piss covered airpod, which was quickly sucked down the stinkhole along with a ton of shit.
The presumed end goal would have been to somehow sanitize the soiled pod enough to put it back into my ear, had the rescue attempt been successful.
The Dungleman residence's toilet seat has called a lid for the day. I will not be taking further questions on the matter.
I resisted the wireless earbud for a long time out of almost exactly this fear, given how expensive they are and how much I really use my ear phones.
I know that one day this will be me.
I have a pod in one ear almost every day for (constant, bullshit) work calls. Plus I like to listen to podcasts while going for a walk or doing chores around the house.
On a positive note, I just came up with an idea for a Wiimote-style strap that hooks into your earlobe so you can wear airpods like earrings at all times. It requires a charging hat that must be worn whenever you aren't using them.
