Do you wear large headphones in public?

Just curious , how many of you lug your headphones wherever you go? Personally , I wear my ATH-M50 to everywhere , bus , train , school.
Wanna see who does this too , it's kind of rare to see people with full sized cans walking around in the streets , seems like I'm the only guy who thinks it doesn't make one look geeky o_o |

I don't enjoy looking like a douche, so no.
I have a pair of Sony MDR-7506 and the only place that I wear them that could be considered "public" is on airplanes. |

| that. They're hard to store and carry around and you also look like a massive tool. Little earbud headphones do the trick. |

no, just on planes and sometimes on a train
i guess buses would be ok too (greyhound, not intracity stuff) |

I completely agree, it doesn't make one look geeky at all. It makes you look like a douchebag, though. |

I will never wear full sized cans, but i really respect those who do.
When you experience good sound its hard to respect people who wear ear-buds that sound like just because it makes them look cooler.
I used to wear these on the bus cuz of their noise cancellation:

It's not about "looking cool", it's more about convenience. |

yes, I do! Seldom leave the home without these babies providing me with awesome sound:
Frankly, I always found folks who wore little white ear buds to be the bigger douches. Nothing was a bigger status symbol than letting others know that you had an iPod. So what if the sound was comparatively crap? I got an iPod! |
