What was your last “impulse buy” and was it worth it?

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 -

Baulders Gate 3. No, I can't stay awake more than like 10 mins if I play

Digital copies of the entire run of the Girl Genius webcomic. Very worth it.

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.

Hollow Knight. I had a twenty dollar gift card to game stop and told them to recommend something.

GeForce 5090. Had been saving up for last few years, it came in stock and I bought without thinking much about it.
It’s worth it because it’s fast. Not worth it because it was expensive and warms up the room too much. I really underestimated how hot it would make my room.
I do regret buying it. Since now I’m short on cash.
I want to build a separate exhaust for my PC for this reason but I know it wouldn't look good.

wrote last edited by [email protected]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.

A case of raspberry iced tea, and local pickled onions for the Smokies I went to the store to get for dinner

I've been using trackballs for 25 years. What do you think of the M575? I've got a fleet of old and tired M570s that will need replacement soon.
I was like you. Both are great your over thinking it. 575 I think has a slightly less rounded curve but trust its nothing to worry about. I swap between both with ease. Matter of fact. I love the 570 sometimes but my hand arch started to get worn out after hours of use. 575 has less of an arch and relaxes the wrist a tad more.

Bunch of sexy sex clothes and Ben Wa balls for the wife. Worth it?
Yes.
How do you introduce these things to a more shy and very vanilla partner?

I got an MX Ergo. It's godfuckingawful. The M570 looks back at you so your thumb rests forward of the centerline of the ball. The Ergo looks to the side like a lobotomized beluga so your thumb rests on the centerline of the ball reducing the comfortable range of vertical travel. It also developed a nasty case of leprosy, the skin started to blister and peel, so rubber wrapped devices from Logitech are dead to me forever. I just...I've been soldering new click switches into my little herd of 570s because Logitech is really bad at electronics and they used inappropriate switches that wear out prematurely so I've been fixing it instead of buying anything else from them because I am a severely petty man but they're starting to fail in ways I don't know how to fix.

wrote last edited by [email protected]I've got a bad right click on my 570 and it's years old. That's part of what caused me to get a 575. That and work I needed something good rather than a traditional mouse.
Edit: get a 575 you will make concessions but given your ergo trust me it's worth doing. Retire those 570s!

Is that finished or still ongoing?

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

I would pay for BG3 ten times over if it worked that well

....a home gym. As much as it has destroyed my budget for the remainder of the year and more than likely next year, it is absolutely worth it.

I just bought a cordless stick vacuum, which can also mop. It was on a good discount (450€ -> 150€) and I've been thinking of getting something like that for a while. I don't necessarily need it, but it has been a very great tool since I have people come over every week and I have a child and there are spills of food and drinks. It really cleans up well and mops the floor also. 10/10 would recommend.

What? How can this vacuum clean carpet? Or is this something like a tineco floor washer?

I have the same problem with marvels midnight suns.

I checked the tineco and seems like it's pretty similar. I have a robo vacuum also and it handles the carpets like a champ, so they work pretty well in tandem. The robovac also mops, but for cleaning spills the stick vacuum is faster and easier to use. I hate cleaning (don't know many who loves it tbh) so every bit that makes it easier is a win for me.
