There are two things in my life that have ever gotten as tangled, on as regular a basis, as any given pair of earbud-style headphones I've ever had: Christmas lights and cross-stitch thread.
...this is ridiculous. Short of tightly wrapping the ear buds and tucking them into their own wrapped coils, every time I reach in my bag for my iPod, I retrieve it and headphones only slightly less snarled than a rabid wolverine. HOW does it do this? They were untangled when they went in the front pocket of my bag last night. My bag only moved this morning as I packed it with lunch (not in the same compartment as the headphones, mind) and took it with me to work. I take them out just now, and I have to stare in awe and wonder at how tangled they are. How!?
