I think I have been reading too many comics or I'm too into retro-congruency, but I really like earmuff headphones, especially to be seen in public with 'em. Either those, or earphones that have that built-in mechanism where they wrap themselves up neatly, no tangled-wires, no mess, just streamlined for easy use and pocketing away when not in use.
I think my fascination with big headphones is as so, the fact of which is that I hate hearing you people talk in public when I'm trying to listen to tunes, the radio show, or archived podcasts, and those "rinky-dink" white earbuds are not gonna drown your incessant babble out sufficiently enough to even warrant use or good mentions.
Also, for some reason, my head's shape really does not form fit well to conventional baseball caps or other hats, and I look beyond odd if I were to step into the public eye with one on; I guess big, pacifying headphones is my way of coping of never, ever being able to wear a hat outside again.
Last stop: this reminds me of a comment Sharon made I don't know how long ago, and it fits well within the means of this topic: Do only "dinks", "losers" and "oddballs" wear a backpack in public if they are not in school?
