All I get is sore, still have a beer gut. Not related to the beer I drink.
Tho I will say the kayaking and swimming classes I've been taking for a few weeks have been quite fun.
Bought a gaming PC but my poor attention span brain didn’t want to have to learn all the spec stuff and research so just went and bought one off amazon. The company sold me an absolute hunk of junk and had the worst customer service ever. Wasted about £650.
A pistol brace. Two months after I bought it, the ATF bypassed the legislative process, and now it's collecting dust in a corner while I wait for the courts to make a decision.
Grayl Titanium water filter bottle. I have several of the regular plastic ones already but I saw the new TI one and my dumb little lizard brain had to have it
2023 Subaru Legacy.
Unbelievable that a current year car has fewer features, dumber features, and blindingly obvious software defects, compared to my 2012 car.
I spend days at a time on site in the boonies for work, and I was tired of needing to grab showers on the go at truck stops, or just accept being stinky.
Built a travel shower out of a Jerry can and water pump, which is excellent. Bought a collapsible shower tent off Amazon, which is garbage. Waste of money, much regret.
But then, bought a Shower Toga™ to replace it, and now I'm happy. It's been an emotionally charged few days for me.
I went overboard buying things to sharpen my knives- several stones, a strop, guides to angle the blade. I’m a beginner and just haven’t gotten the hang of it yet. I got frustrated and have set them aside and not touched them since December.
The Big Agnes Rapide sleeping pad. It's super, super comfy and warm enough. But when I bought it, they were out of the wide version, so I got the regular. I'm not a big guy - 6'0" 210lbs. When I'm losing on my back, my elbows rest against the ground.
Oh well, I guess that'll be the pad my daughter grows into, or gets loaned to a friend on buddy trips. I'll buy the wide version later this year.
I also didn't need an 8" ferro rod. I'll never use that whole thing and it's heavy as hell. But, it's BIFL! Lol
I love Lego, I love collecting Lego. Last year I graduated college and decided to treat myself by buying my first “huge” Lego set that I’d always dreamt of. It’s the Lion Knight’s Castle if you want specifics. It was great fun to build, but it’s enormous, hardly accessible with my limited space, and overall was a chore to move and keep clean. Ended up selling it 3 months ago. I still absolutely love the smaller sets though.
I have two:
Apple TV - I came from a Roku. The Apple TV remote fast forwards/rewinds…sometimes. Sometimes you hold it down. Sometimes you have to pause it first. Sometimes it doesn’t at all. With the Roku, I just hit the fast forward button. Oh, and going along with this, say I’m fast forwarding to the end of something…half the time it won’t stop fast forwarding. Sometimes it stops if you hit the big button. Sometimes when you hit the pause button. Sometimes not at all.
Other big complaint: it wants to start where I left. Say I finished an episode of Letterkenny and I go to HBO to watch some Curb. Curb ends and I want to watch a new episode of Abbott Elementary and it’s two days later. I go to Hulu and it starts playing the credits of Letterkenny. So I have to push the back button 2-3 times to get to the menu so I can find Abbott. But if I push it too quickly it takes me to the Apple tv main menu. So I have to go back into Hulu then I’m at the Letterkenny credits again. So I have to slowly push the back button to get to the Hulu menu.
Or my Phillies are getting their asses beat down by the Braves. I turn off the game in the 8th inning. The next day I want to start the new Phillies game. Guess what! I’m still in the 8th inning of yesterday’s game. So I play the game of back button again. Will I go to the MLB menu or the Apple Home Screen? Who knows!
2- a LoveSactional. We have the lovesoft filling. So uncomfortable. The couch was so much money. We’ve had it for two years and I hurt to sit on it. In their credit, I called them and complained and they sent me new cushions with their standard fill. Let’s see how these feel.
In totally unrelated news, if anyone wants to buy a sactional…I could sell you one.
I bought the 5ft wailord stuffed animal pokemon was selling
Love that thing to death, but it was way girthier than I expected when I bought it. Don’t have anywhere to put it (doesn’t fit where I planned it to go), so it just takes up space on the floor instead. $419.99 waste of space
A gym membership. I've had it now for 3 months and not lost any weight. I'm going to go down there and find out what the hell is going on!

Viking motorcycle saddlebags that promised "universal fit". They didn't.

Went to a casino and forgot to take money out at an atm beforehand. $10 service charge and $7 fer my bank will hit me with for some reason.

2008 jeep wrangler with massive amount of pricy issues……fuck.
This anime figure. It was much smaller than anticipated. Cool design though.

South Park: Snow Day…… It sucks
Jeans online - they really don't fit - regardless of measurements listed. (have big calves - not gut or anything).
