Most idiotic fanboy fantasy piece in a long while

You must have a pretty pathetic sex life and the hormones of a 15 year old if you think that the airpods are in any way even close to sex on a stick. Truth is that there is no difference in design between a wired earpod and an airpod except for the missing wire. They define you as much a douchebag as if you were wearing Google glass. Apple has wanted to break into the fashion industry for a long time (http://time.com/3745853/apple-fashion-culture/)and has failed miserably so far. The Apple Watch, Beats and now airpods are a sign that Apple is running out of ideas. If people don’t want to buy “fashion” we’ll cram it down their throats (or in their ears) was probably a theme at Tim Cook’s management meetings. Apple used to be great at design with sex appeal that wouldn’t look out of place on a catwalk but a pair of wireless pods with mediocre sound is no fashion statement.
