🔥👀 HOLD UP, Y’ALL! In a plot twist that’s more shocking than finding your dev friend using Internet Explorer, **Mashable’s Senior Shopping Reporter** just pulled the ultimate glow-down: she traded her *swanky* $249 AirPods Pro for a pair of $19 wired EarPods! 🎧💸 That's right, folks! Welcome to the *Wired Life* where frugality meets the vibes of “I miss my penny-pinching days” 💵😅. This reporter said, “Who needs noise cancellation when you can hear EVERYONE’s business on the bus?” 🤡💀 She might as well have said, “Drake would be proud of my budget choices” as she unplugs the elitist Apple life for the retro vibes of tangled cords. The real question is: is she now a WiFi-less god? 🤔✨ Meanwhile, in the developer’s lair, someone’s leaking quotes about “AirPods being for the *gomers* who can’t handle a wire.” Source: Totally legit developer named "Brad" from accounting 🙄. So what’s next? WILL WE ALL GO BACK TO FLIP PHONES AND DISPOSABLE CAMERAS?! 🥴🔥 This is fine, but not fine at all! **Exclusive hot take**: Expect Apple to respond with a $300 “Wireless Wire” that generates WiFi from thin air. No cap. Get ready for the stonks 🚀💰!
