Save the planet, kill yourself.
second!
Save society, kill a PETA member.
PETA= People Eating Tasty Animals ???
WRONG! Save a toddler, kill a python.
If they made these things in Florida, they could be $100.

If you're feeling down and out with what your life is all about, lift your head up high and blow your brains out!
Actually Florida is starting to become overrun with pythons so if they are going to start killing off an invasive species why not use part of them for something?
It would be one thing if these guys we using snake skins to make the headphones look awesome, but they look stupid. I wouldn't be caught dead with these on my head.

Save a horse, ride a Cowboy?
I bet it sssssssssssssssoundssssss bad too.
I see what you did there.
if those are the actual headphones, they must be using some of the most symmetrical reticulated python skins EVER!
it's almost as if they have never seen a real snake...
Chennheiser drivers. 10,000% mark-up. Discomfort Plus Plus.
Covering electronics in exotic leather is just asking for some kind of subculture I don't think anyone wants.
Are they gunna make a C++ covered version?
te...
he....
No, but they come in Ruby!
Badum bum, tss! :D
Haha nice one!
HAHA! Seconded. Awesome.
They have a pimped-out version that's adorned with perls.
If someone makes one more "ssssssssss" joke, I will kill an endangered whale.
Pffft, cool your jets! SO far, only one ssssssss-joke has been made. Geez, you only give us a one-foul chance before you kill the whale?
Absolutely. Clubbing baby seals has gone out of style. Endangered whales are all the rage these days.
sssssssssmoooth
@Gi
ssssssuple
Are you Japanese? Or are you Norwegian?
Well, right about that time people, a fur trapper, who was strictly from commercial, had the unmitigated audacity to jump up from behind my ig-a-loo and start a-whippin on my favorite baby seal with a lead-filled snowshoe.
Thar she blows, another joke whiner
lol I thought of that too.
I meant to reply to dsteve303 -_-
LOL That's incredibly lame. If you can't make a good product put some dead animal skin on it and add a zero to the pricetag... sounds like a plan! Oh, by the way, PETA is much to busy working on the plight of the flys at the moment.
I'll take 20. Along with a whole BBQed cow, duck, pig, one of every edible bird, and a salad.
I'll do ANYTHING to piss PEDO-er... PETA off.
What's the big deal about PETA? Why should People Eating Tasty Animals care about this?
Salad? You murderer! Think of those living, breathing vegetables!
Python, birch, goat. All are perfectly renewable/sustainable materials.
+1 to you, sir.
you are blessed with a great sense of humor , what if tomorrow we have no animals should we go for human meat and skin also since it is also renewable and biodegradable ? sir u are in a notion that humans are advancing but see things behind the scene , we are going back to stone age [less brain more instinct] , killing for survival or pleasure ? , behind our tuxedo we all are like animals [no mercy]
I bet they still kill less animals for these than PETA does.
luckily that prohibitive price tag means that there won't be many other snakes, or goats dying on account of these cans.
weak sauce, you could do something better for $160 without killing stuff :).
Fuck PETA.
At least your Ted Nugent albums should sound good on these.
nice
I, for one, am a proud member of People for the Eating of Tasty Animals.
Imagine the sssilibance on these!
But in all seriousness, it's a stupid concept.
And by uproar, you mean hissy fit.
(Get it, because of snakes?)
I genuinely LOL'd at the title of this article.
Harry Potter just came.
