Fancy jar of honey from the grocery store for me. Tasted pretty good.

    A Skil Electric screwdriver.
    I thought it was gimmicky but it was $20 about 8 years ago and I thought it might be useful sometimes, I use the every living shit out of that thing to this day, and it’s still going

    A used Wii-U in immaculate condition. Windwaker is one of my favorite games, and it’s even better in HD. $48.

      Same here, but I must say the platforming is a lot harder than I was expecting. Diagonal pogo is really messing me up. I can’t consistently get past those pogo bouncy fruit ball things and I’m stuck now. Hopefully it clicks soon.

    Got a little bonus and splurged on another unit of Eliminators and a Phobos Librarian for my Angelic Inheritors army, “The Baal Hammers.“ No regrets.

    Registered for a fan run Nancy Drew -esque 3 day event in WA for 2026. Went to the one this year and it was a blast, registered right before it filled up.

    My son works at a motorcycle dealer. He sends me a pic of a bike they just got in. A CBR1000RR-RSP. Well after putting on my boots and asking him if it’s for sale, they said they would sell it to me. The person who ordered it had to back out so if I could make it down there it was mine. I hopped on my 2001 CBR and headed to the store where I bought the bike. And to answer the question, YES it was definitely worth it. That motorcycle is the absolute hands down smoothest machine I have ever been on. It’s like riding a stick of butter down a teflon pan. I still can’t believe I own one as I honestly never even thought I would ever even see one in the wild.

      Awesome.

      215 horsepower out of a street legal, featherweight 1 liter NA engine is ‘normal’ now I guess, but it still boggles my mind. And its low inertia! If you sent that thing back in time, engine designers’ heads would explode.

        Totally agree. The amount of hp this bike has blows my mind. But the thing like I said is just how smooth it is in the delivery and execution. The shifts are smooth and effortless, and the throttle is just smooth. You can dial in the power you want with different settings, so you can tone it down for things like riding in the rain. It’s so much different than my 01, which was just raw power and no electronic goodies other than fuel injection. I love having both, and have a ton of miles on the 01 which I am looking forward to matching with the new bike.

        That’s it. I got a 25 model, but it looks basically the same. They tweaked some internals from 24 to 25, but that’s the bike. It was a once in a lifetime opportunity for me, and I jumped on it. Definitely my largest impulse buy ever. I figure my friends all think I am having a mid life crisis, but it’s just a dream bike of mine that I never would have fathomed I would have a snowballs chance in hell of owning.

    I went to a café and sat down with the book I’m currently reading and bought a coffee and a crêpe. It was very much worth it! I’ll do that again.
