"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

Im looking for some headphones which could decrese the noise from the outside environment, something like that allows to to stay in a club with loud music without being stunned from the music.

Not ear plugs since I may need to remove them often to listen at people.

Before you ask the answer is not, Im not going to hunting in a club with with ear plugs, the purpose in as other.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Dude, I could be the freaking spokesperson for these damn things

Boise Quiet Comfort, they are 300 new, you can get them on amazon used for like 200. worth every freaking penny.

When I am working at home and my son is act ing like a 5 year old... just put them on and bam it's like i'm in the house by myself.


go to starbucks and some dude is too loud? Bam. Don't hear anything

They are worth their weight in gold. I have a job where I have to concentrate on what I'm doing and I work from home. Between the wife watching TV and my son and me going to starbucks or whatever, they are a life saver.
