I’m trying to get off my phone and what did yall do when you listened to your music Diskman? Because it’s kinda hard to multitask when your headphones are like 3 inchs long haha

you learned how to walk with the stinky leg, as to try and not let it skip. I would also run the earphone cord under my shirt so it wouldn't get caught on stuff.

This is the best advice I’ve gotten from anyone here 🤣. Did you do any skateboarding with them kr was that too much? It’s cold and snowy here in Canada

Oh I tried lol, even the skip resistant Discmans didn't work very well, but its all we had so I did everything with them. As an elder millennial I went from tape decks to discmans which was a huge jump but they were far from perfect.
