I really wanted a modded Xbox 360 when I was younger because I thought being able to play ‘backed up’ games and having a custom dashboard was really neat.
I ended up buying one last year to fulfill that childhood wish.
When I was like 19 or something, I went into a restaurant, got seated, asked to see a dessert menu. I ordered dessert. Then I asked for an appetizer menu. And I ordered an appetizer. Then I paid, and left.
You didn’t even stay to eat them??
It’s not about dining, it’s about sending a message
2 tv’s side-by-side with 2 consoles for local multi-player. Dream achieved with a bonus wife to play with.
You got a bonus wife? Is your main wife ok with that? Also how do unlock that achievement?
You need to complete the polygamy side quest.
Or just start as the mormon class
Is that like a bang maid?
Nicely done
When I built my new pc my wife inherited my old one which fortunately is still good enough to play most games (not well but they run), so we now have a two desk set up for co-op games, it’s great.
My wife just recently saw the appeal, after years of explaining.
I always loved construction equipment as a kid. I had a full set of die-cast Cat construction machines and would play with them in a sandbox my dad built.
Three months ago I bought a Kubota U27-4 mini-excavator. Needless to say, my inner 8 year old is thrilled.
Figured a picture would be appropriate…
How much does that cost?
Looking it up, 30-50k
But think of how much you would save!
OP dug up the fiber cable connecting the east to the west
of earth
Want to be friends?
This is great. I think every kid wants a digger.
A pinball machine
Fucking awesome! What table?
25 year old back to the future machine 🤙
I know the one. I am definitely envious but super happy for you. That’s a good table.
That’s heavy.
Why were things so heavy in the past?
At this point it’s back to the past. The guy went from the past to the past and then back to past-eerrrrrr
They said a pinball table!
Name checks out
😂 disposable income! 💀😐
A real video game set up. I have 17 consoles in the house and over 450 games.
I even have the old CRT TV with an AV switcher hooked up so I can switch between consoles quickly without having to mess with any wires.
17 consoles? Wow! Any rarities?
Eh not really. I have the yellow Pikachu Gameboy color. But I’m a big Halo fan (hence the username) so I’ve focused on collecting all the Halo special edition Xboxs. Only missing 5 and Infinite. 5 is relatively cheap I just haven’t got it yet and the Infinite Series X is jacked up in price since there were so few made and it was released during the pandemic when sclapers were doing their thing.
Other than than mostly Xbox and Nintendo systems going back to SNES.
A Honda S2000. I saw the first one in 1999-2000 before college, and I thought, hell yea I want that. So in 2008 I bought a brand new one that I still have.
I bought a new '99 Civic Si but when I saw the S2000 I wished I had waited. I loved my Si - it was blue and I named him Moonshadow – but that S2000 is sweet. Will never forget driving from Vegas to SoCal and being passed by a guy driving an S2000. Or did I pass him? It was so long ago. One of us yelled “nice car!” and the other said “you too!”
it’s probably worth more now than when you bought it lol
It has <40k miles on it. It’s not in pristine condition, but it has been garaged for basically the entire time I’ve had it.
A home away from my parents.
Also ice cream cake
I sold a bunch of 70’s and 80’s tabletop roleplaying stuff when I went to college. A few years ago, I reacquired many of those titles at collector’s prices. Not my most brilliant financial move.
Sell the dip.
I bought a house, and then the vacant lot next to the house, and hopefully someday before prices go nuts the vacant lot on the other side of the house. Urban farm, baybee!
If only I had disposable income.
A pool table. Kept it for a few years, then replaced it with kids. The table was way cheaper.
By the time you can afford it, the car ain’t important…
replace car with games
!because no more friends to play with!<
I don’t think there are any desires I carried over from childhood that I finally fulfilled later. Most things I wanted in the past I simply stopped wanting as I changed with age.
I have, however, on numerous occasions in my adult life, looked at something that probably would’ve made my kid self go into orbit with excitement and thought, “Man, if only I could get an adult to buy me this…” only to blink a couple times, see the lightbulb turn on, and go, “HEY, WAIT A MINUTE…!”
A whole bunch fo NERF guns. Rival, Elite, Vortex, I got a fair few over the years.
Do I need them? Of course not.
Did 15y old.me always want a dozen or so? Definitely!
Do you have a favorite? Or any fun facts about the world of NERF?
