Palm Pilot
[/quote] Whoa. Nostalgia overload.

I know right? A famously dumb purchase.

Got no idea what that is… :blush: :wink:

Consider yourself lucky.

Mine is a Razor keyboard/mouse combination. Both quit working properly within a year.

My motorbike. I’ve never been into them, but my mates pressured me into joining their group of off-roaders. I kind of knew it would be a waste of my cash. Now it sits in the shed gathering dust.

The XBox-One - We bought it right after we saw Battleborn is going to be Next-Gen, but now I always meet cool people IĀ“d like to play with and they have a PS4…
Damn you Halo, why your evil pact with the microsoft demons? :sob:

I totally not regret to own BERSERK comics in 3 languages, each 34 books…Anyone needs BERSERK in german? Have them double…

My ex’s dinner on our first date :confused:

Um, The Pre-Sequel. Once I started playing that with my kids on triple screen in split screen I realised it was just like Borderlands 2 which I was already bored with.

Every Ubisoft game that has Uplay under Steamonce I started the latest and tried an earlier game and actually none of them worked. This was ofcourse only for Uplay games, but the Ubi support was ever so helpful with their:

  1. clear %temp% folder
  2. clean boot into Windows
  3. they might even have a check file integrity/redownload full game.

Any automatic wine bottle opener ever.

Even trashed the ones I’d bought as gifts for regulars as they obliterate any cork which is just a bit worn. That is when they don’t require a third round of repairs.

Go to any three Michelin star place and I’d wager the staff is using a basic waiter’s cork screw.

Yeah, I regret buying TPS too. Still have barely touched it. I also regret buying pretty much all of my IKEA furniture. Cheap junk. And I regret buying this dumb dress I have because I felt pressured into buying it even though it’s not that great on me.

Way to necro this thread, you dork. :sweat_smile: I regret leasing a car instead of saving up to buy another one or a truck, if that counts.

37 copies of Evolve.

Forza Motorsport 3.

D-did you gift 36 copies of Evolve to pals?

Destiny, Mirrors Edge, Bioshock, various games on Steam that ended up not working at all, clothes that tear after wearing it only twice.

3 Asus Rog Monitors. I should have just gotten one of them.

Setting up SLI with the GTX 980ti. Sounds cool doesnt it? I spent more time in the game settings menu than actually playing the game itself.

I can feel my wallet burning just reading that…

Well take stock in knowing that it doesnt matter how ā€œbadassā€ your gear is when it really matters.

I continually get my $&$ kicked in PvP by 10 year olds (im 35)
