Probably disintegrating, I don’t know. But now I’ll finally have to buy new ones. Currently there’s 6 oozing points in total. 3 are minor, one is now inactive (the 2024 pimple), one I taped over, but it’s starting to overflow, and one near the jack is major.
I now cannot plug them in without getting sticky residue everywhere. Also the rubber on the outside is starting to crumble a bit.
I am a cheapskate, but this may be their end.
Whaa, a follow up on the pimple headphones!? Ouch, yeah that looks even worse now, crazy that you kept using them even after all this time, yeah, that looks like replacing time indeed.
If it didn’t sound like a possibly very unsafe idea I’d say i wonder how much it would degrade and how would it look if you sealed it on some kind of bag and left it there for a very log time haha
