Are you an earphone-phobe? You know, someone who suffers anxiety or pain when something is placed in the ear? Whether or not that's an actual medical condition is beyond my expertise, but here at geeksugar, we are all about solving tech dilemmas — even if it includes being an earphone-phobe! Gizmodo has just revealed some unique earbud holders called lobies, which fit any size of earbuds. Each lobie wraps around your earbuds and then around your ear so you don't actually need to place earphones in your ear. Don't even get me started on sound quality, comfort level, and overall annoying factor. Lobies cost $12 each. Please let me know if there's anyone out there who would find these useful!

These are fantastic! Earbuds, aside from generally having really lousy sound quality, are terrible for your hearing. I personally find buds to be too big, and painful (I have tiny ears).
Very cute.
