How do you justify our shared addiction to other people? (alien.top)

How do you all explain to people why you want multiple pairs of headphones? Do you go for the "I'm a collector" route or do you go for the "no but they're all different and have different uses" route?

Because my family is very confused as to why I want multiple headphones and honestly can only explain it as a "because I really like them"

I only buy things that have different uses so I have to justify it to myself before I even think of buying it. I like to try new stuff but I tend to sell/trade/return them if I don't see a use for it. I got all of these for a cheap price used.

For exercise (Sony WF-1000XM4), for travel with strong ANC (Bose QC35 ll), for sound quality (Drop JVC HA-FDX1), for games/movies/shows (ATH R70x). I use the Sennheiser Momentum 3 as the default option as it fits my preferences.
