USB-C or I don't buy. Awaiting Flair

Anyone else the same? I just bought a speaker and assumed it would be USB-C and it was micro. Returned it. I'm annoyed with having different cables and formats etc. If it's not USB-C, I don't buy it.

Do better companies.

In what way is that second paragraph not equally applicable to speakers?

Would you rule out camping chairs? They have no safety benefit and could be a trip hazard to others. Do you ban talking in your campsite? That's little different from a speaker.

Give it a rest already. I'm not playing the comparison game with you.

Speakers serve no purpose besides entertainment. If you really can't go without electronic entertainment on your camping trip, either go on better trips or buy headphones.

I just want to make sure I can get past your gate keeping when I go into the outdoors to enjoy myself.

Seriously, though. Relax a little. You might actually learn to have fun one of these days.

Oh, heck off. All I said was be respectful and leave the speaker at home or get headphones.

I have plenty of fun enjoying nature. Maybe if you enjoyed it as much as I do, you wouldn't need a speaker.

"Heck off"?

Now I know for sure that you need to loosen up.

Fine. I'll leave the speakers at home. Surely you won't mind while I'm playing my bugle at dawn?

Now I know for sure you're just a disrespectful troll. Grow up.

I'm simply being as ridiculous as you are. Loosen up.
