I'm going to be constructive here instead - I used to also despise headphones and I still can't wear most types (including earbuds) because I find them uncomfortable to the point of painfulness, but I would suggest trying out a pair of circumaural headphones and see if they do you any better. I personally own the Razer Carcharias headset (http://store.razerzone.com/store/razerusa/en_US/pd/productID.169415800) and I wouldn't trade it for anything. It has completely stopped any noise complaints I might have gotten, it is comfortable enough to wear for hours at a time, and I find the sound quality is actually superior to my old speakers (which admittedly were not top-of-the-line, but headphones outperforming any speakers is worthy of note in my opinion).
