Tangle-proof headphones

I’ll admit, I have a little O.C.D. in me. Two things in particular are:
1. Most things have their place at home. For example, when I come home, my glasses, my phone, my wallet, my keys and anything else in my pockets (and my pockets must be emptied) all have their respective locations that they MUST be in before I can go to the bathroom relax.
2. I absolutely abhor tangled chords. Doesn’t matter what they are attached to. I get all nervous and twitchy and have to detangle them or else I just might break out in hives.
That’s why Brotha Tech thought this idea from design student Lee Washington is a much needed idea that needs to be patened, manufactured and shipped post-haste. There are already tangle-free headphones out there, but most are not very practical, and flat out don’t work.
The Lowdown
Lee’s method consists of locking the two earbud cords together similar to a zip lock on sandwich bags, making one cable that is less likely to get tagled up.

Simple, to the point, and doesn’t appear to be too difficult to mass produce. My only question is, where do I submit my order
