So, what is the topic asking for? It's kind of like that pet peeves thread from a while back. I'm majoring in product design and for my graduation project, I obviously need some concept/product to showcase. I'm in my brainstorming phase right now and I want TL's help on which areas might be interesting to explore.
Example from my personal experience:
I get annoyed when I'm listening to music on mp3 player and someone starts talking to me at which point I have to reach into my pockets, pause it, and take off my earphones to have a conversation.
solution:
These earphones automatically pause whatever you're listening to when you take either side off and continues playing when both are plugged into your ears.
Just share any similar daily annoyances (no solutions needed, in fact, I think that might be counterproductive for me).
Well, it's not like I'm soley depending on this thread to get ideas... I figured I had nothing to lose posting this and it's not completely self-serving either -_-

Thanks TL
those are tight... where'd you get em? and are there earphone versions? I don't like those "in-ear" kinda things
Those earphones are just one example of those things that bothered me and later found out there was already a product in the market that dealt with it. I don't own one nor do I know details but I would assume there would/could be a mechanism via button where you can toggle that auto pause/play mode on/off?
I don't mind people posting shit that is probably irrelevant as long as it's not too troll... Like I said, I don't have anything to lose from this thread and there might be tons of replies that are funny/interesting despite being no help to me whatsoever :p
I hate it wen I open a beer right before I play a game and totally forget about it.. Flat beer SUX BALLS. I immagine it's the same with coke and fizzy drinks..
