After watching the Wimbledon Finals last year I thought Bradley Cooper and Gerard Butler looked like badasses in their light blue suits so I had my tailor make me a light blue suit.

Right after I picked it up I realized "WTF can a non-celebrity wear a light blue suit to?". Even the gf admits it looks legit as frick, but being that I'm not a celebrity I'd look like a turbodouche wearing it somewhere.

I wear just the jacket sometimes with dark jeans and it looks alright, but I've never worn the whole thing before.

Yea Idk wtf I was thinking .

She told me before I got it that I wouldn't be able to pull it off, but I told her I could. I tried it on, it looked legit, and the first thing that came to mind was "nope, can't pull it off" haha.

The Tag Heuer Aquaracer Regatta is a piece of crap! Paid about $2k on the watch because it looked cool and one of the first Tags with a perpetual calendar.

Didn't even read that the watch was battery-powered quartz movement instead of mechanical movement. The battery of the watch died in about a year, took the watch to an authorized dealer. They attempted to replace the battery, but could not get the watch to work. They sent the watch back to the company and have not heard anything from them yet.

Well hell, maybe that's why Christine won't wear the Tag I purchased for her impulsively.

A fifty dollar box set of "Sanford and Son", some guy dubbed onto VHS tapes. I was young, dumb, drunk, and new to the world of online shopping. I don't remember ordering it, so it was like a sad surprise present when it arrived.

The only reason to get mechanical is to prove that you are dumb enough to waste money on an inferior product

Not me, but mother-in-law purchased collector's editions of Furby's and saved them for the kids. My kids were like, "No way. Jose."

Brand new motor home which cost $150k.
After monthly storage fee, repair cost such as new tires from sitting up, and fuel cost just wasn't worth keeping.
After a few years ended up selling it for a loss.

The bike was so God-awful, I gave it away a two years later. Hell, at that point I would have paid someone to drag it away.
