As the suggesting psychologist, I approve of this item. Though, it requires spriting, which may reduce its chances of being accepted if nobody steps up to do it.

Perhaps if your application gets denied, you could simply say it didn't even help a little bit.

+1!

My main question is... Can't you RP out the earbuds? Y'know, /me actions, flavor text, and pose.

[Gallic]

That is a good point. People are unlikely to notice a tiny white sprite, true. But, people also may not notice a little note in flavor text or a pose. Additionally, if anything IC is to come of it, it's less likely to happen if it's just a "Oh by the way I have earbuds." rather than a clearly defined physical item.

[TishinaStalker]

Your pose always appears in full length regardless of how much you write into it, and it appears just under your flavor text in black text; which makes it really hard to ignore.

[Gallic]

As a show of good faith despite the outlook seeming grim for poor Potatohboi, I've went ahead and whipped up some pretty crude sprites.

 

 

 

The first is obviously just a recolor of the default headphone sprite. The second is a super-huge kind of shoddy spess ipod.
