Gotta hear those hunters before they scream. After that, they're already on you.

I need these headphones to defend my ears from the tanks sexual prowess.

Using a pair of gaming headphones, one of those cheap Sonic Enhancers you see on infomericals, and my knowledge of electric technicals, I would rewire the Sonic Enhancer to focus its Listening Waves of Wonder on a certain point and allow for stereo input, and use the headphones so I don't get distracted by the generic asshole who thinks my plans of zombie defense are meaningless, and will likely be the next victim in my team to go.

Everybody knows you need headphones to fight zombies because zombies are smart enough to go for the soft parts first. Your ears make a tasty snack and are easily edible. Attacking a persons arm on the other hand is bony and requires some work to get the meat off said bone. Ears, eyes, unmentionables, you know anything soft first.

I have a girlfriend who goes to sleep early and I stay up late with my boys online and she is always coming out and telling me to STFU. Now that is just plain mean :( Plus I could stay up later and later and kill more of the living dead. KILL!!!!!!

I would need the headphones for the sheer joy of trying to sneak them in to my brother's room when he comes back from Canada. I would blast the volume when the Tank comes through, crashing cars and throwing concrete.

Yes, it is evil. Yes, it is immature. And yes, I am an adult acting like a child. But in my defense, he did work out an evil scheme with his friend to ditch me at a movie theater.

It is a zombie survival rule to stay as quite as possible so you can hear the undead. And this headset is PERFECT for that.

So my Son will have a good headset that I don't have to repurchase every 6 weeks. And so he can crank his T.V. up thru the headset with out blowing the house down.
