I borrowed my friend’s earbuds for a day trip, only to remember he’s the kind of guy who uses them daily.

Requested to borrow a friend’s earbuds for a day trip, overlooked that the friend is a lowlife. He utilizes those buds daily.

Earbuds are one of the few items I would never lend out or ask for. Never know what hygiene habits people lack

“Hey, can I borrow a pair of underwear?” Same energy. You’re better off just reading or something

Those are *usually* cleaner as washing machines exist.

Cleaning solutions suitable for earbuds, rags, qtips also exist! Sitting in silence, or, sitting with the loud noise in one’s head also exists. You know what doesn’t exist? A time machine so I can try to go back to right before I saw that photo, and choose a different adventure. 😎😂

It’s far more common to clean you underwear after each use than it is to clean your earbuds with the same frequency.

“Hey buddy, can I borrow that \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ that you jam into your bodily orifice on a regular basis!” are not words I would say.

I even hesitate when it comes to regular headphones sometimes. You never know….

Nah, you can also just throw them away everytime, no need to use a washing mashine

Same. I panic cleaned my ear buds after having to endure the picture and the information that went along it which might be worse.

Not to mention you can buy cheap earbuds pretty much anywhere.

As gross as those earbuds are, honestly the real /r/wtf is asking to borrow anyone’s earbuds

OP didn’t want to just say “wtf my ear buds are so gross”

Just like toothbrushes, there’s some things that shouldn’t be shared.

Anything that goes inside of you shouldn’t be shared.

And if it was a matter of life and death so I must use someone else’s earbuds or I will die a long and painful death (short and painful is still preferable to doing that), at minimum I am bringing my own tips.

Noup, death is an acceptable alternative.

100% this. The thought of borrowing someone’s ear buds is a hard N.O.

Lending out earbuds *is* what constitutes a lack of hygiene habits…

People borrow other people’s ear buds? That’s disgusting no matter what.

I work in a hotel and earbuds are a common lost and found item. Sometimes they’re not found though, and people will accuse staff of taking them. Like fuck no, we’re adults we don’t want your nasty earbuds. If I really need to emphasize it I’ll show them the earbuds currently in lost and found to demonstrate that nobody wants preloved earbuds.

I used to work at a hotel and a friend of mine stayed there once. He had some airpods stolen from a locker and tracked to a hotel staff house. We drove over and made them beep when he denied it. He was fired. It definitely happens

yep, my parents were in vegas and had to switch rooms, my mom accidentally left her airpods on the bed, by the time they had unpacked and moved into the new room housekeeping had “cleaned” their old room and her airpods were gone and housekeeping claimed they didn’t have them, we complained but the manager wouldn’t do anything about it unfortunately so we left the hotel a bad review

What do you think?
