Dumb Foam cover thingies on earbuds keep falling off- Glue 'em on ? - cbelt3 - 02-29-2008
The foamy bits on the cheap earbuds I keep in my bag for work distraction avoidance keep falling off. And staying in my ears. Which looks really stupid (I just walked through the halls with one in my ear, and was wondering why people were staring at me),
So what should I do ? I'm thinking about grabbing the elmer's and just gluing them on.

If you are talking about the foam things that slip over the earbud like the ones that come with an iPod. Throw them away. End of problem.

They are like that, but they're not iPod buds- these ones are kinda big and uncomfortable without the foamy bits. I'm gonna glue 'em.

If you're gluing the foamy things to your ear you might want to use cryocyanate.

Won't they be bigger and more uncomfortable with the foam covers on? I know mine were, which is why I got rid of them.

They don't come with foam thingys anymore, at least the iPod Nano I bought last week
didn't. The earbuds will not stay in my ears no matter what.
