My ipod earphone was getting pretty worn, but the sound was still perfect. I decided to get a new earphone from Apple just cuz I like my stuff to look new.

I made up a fake story of "fuzzy sound." A couple hours after that I smoked and decided to go longboarding. About 20 minutes into the longboarding my hand got stuck into my wire and I guess I almost ripped out the wire. The sound in my left earphone BECAME FUZZY!!!!!!!

Then instantly I was like wtf? I arrange a new earphone from Apple 4 hours before I fuck up my earphone with the SAME EXACT PROBLEM described.

I've had the earphone for half a year, skated, ran, and did all sorts of shit with it countless times, and yet I fuck it up 4 hours after I contact Apple.
Really seems like too much of a coincidence, but coincidences exist. I don't believe in karma yet.

You tampered the wire, so the sound output became fuzzy. Coincidence me thinks.

i have dropped my factory apple ear buds and the speaker inside the unit came lose. I had to send them back because there was a rattling inside, and new ones were promptly delivered without even having to send the broken ones in!

I think its a mental thing. People who think they have bad karma will dwell on the negative things and see more bad stuff happen to them, and vice versa for those who have good karma.


Enough stuff is constantly happening that things are bound to coincide with each other

I don't think karma has much to do with products and money (not when you're trying to steal pennies from a huge company anyway).

If that's the worst karma you've got, count yourself lucky. I'm still paying for slamming into that little old lady in the other turn lane, after I paid about a grand for her car repairs, not to mention feeling terrible about it.

It's more plausible that Apple activated their secret "_break." code, using your call to trace to their product so they can have you publicly singing thier praises after they send you a new set of 'buds. I can see it's working already.

I think human beings tend to feel things are working out "karmically" (to use a made-up term) because we subconsciously cherry-pick the events. After all, if there's 20 times you do anything that doesn't have some grand ironic twist, you're not going to take a mental note of it. As soon as something like this does happen, it seems too coincidental to be accident. But really if you look at the karmic proportions statistically, suddenly the universe isn't so mysterious....


.... only in this respect of course, the universe is a damn cool place. :pimp:
