    I think the housemate/gf has seen this thread and strangled him with the headphones cable for being an ungrateful plank.

    I wouldn't use them either, never use headphones or earphones. I'm clearly mental.

    This has turned into one of those threads where I wish I hadn't opened. Come on OP why can't you use the freakin headphones? And give 'em to someone who will appreciate such an awesome gift.

    I would never go out and buy them, but if someone gave me them I'd put them to use... why not!

    Maybe the OP actually works for Beats, and wearing other branded headphones or even being in possession of them could lead to some tricky legal battles thanks to some dodgy employment contracts he signed?

    I'm out of ideas.

    I was actually hoping someone would buy me some sennheiser earphones for Christmas, but nobody did....

    Instead, I got a pair of boots, perfume and 3 shower gel/body lotion gift sets.

    Your lucky OP! Fancy doing a swop for the 3 gift sets?

    maybe the OP is one of those delightful chaps that sits down the back of buses and uses the speaker on his phone to listen to whatever fabulous tunes are being belted out by avicci or whoever the fck the shytebags listen to these days.

    While we're on the topic of unwanted presents, no reflection on the person who gave me it, but jazus, John Cleese's autobiography is a complete bore.

    I don't see what the big enquiry is towards why I wouldn't use them.

    I wouldn't use them due to a combination practicality and opportunity. I just need suggestions as to how I would convey that I appreciate the sentiment but that the gift isn't for me.

    Been given a few suggestions, most of them pretty out there and absolutely no help and one that actually has some rationale behind it.

    .

    Don't see why you're being so secretive about why you can't/don't want to use them.
    You've piqued interest by your blatent omission of why its an unsatisfactory present.
    Now fess up OP, whats the craic?

    What's in it for people to help you? Especially when you cannot be bothered to satisfy their curiosity.

    Tit for tat.

    Practicality? You've no ears? No head?
    Opportunity? Don't listen to music?
