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've heard the "you can only wear one at a time" often. So usually my go to is "why do you buy so many pairs of shoes if you can only wear one at a time?", then you're gonna get the "that's different, I need boots for (yada yada) and some shoes for (thing they do) and a pair of dress shoes for (event you don't care about) and my Crocs for..." And either they start to get it or it's not worth explaining to them.
