inBought a 'premium' brush pack for $60 and used it exactly once
My entire digital art folder is just called "brush test 7" from 2018. I bought one of those fancy painterly packs, @emma_jones, and I spent more time scrolling through the 200 options than actually drawing. Now I'm back to a basic round brush and a flat one for blocking in colors. That weird speckle thing you made probably has more character than my whole unused library.

inI was sure those smart lightbulbs were just a silly fad
Yeah, smart home stuff sneaks up on you. @kevinallen is right about robot vacuums too, they're a game changer once you try one.

inWasted a whole morning on a cheap load level from a roadside stand
My crew tried a bargain bin load leveler from a truck stop off I-95 last season, and it looked like a twisted pretzel after one lift. We only had about 6,500 on it. I swear by the forged steel ones from Columbus McKinnon now, their CM Loadstar line hasn't let me down with 10-ton picks. That cheap stuff is just scrap metal waiting to happen.

inChanged my mind about using body filler on quarter panels
That's not really a mess magnet, it's just how modern cars are built. As wendym82 hinted, the materials just don't hold up like they used to. It's more about thin metal and bad design than bad luck.

inMy brother's simple pasta sauce trick saved me $40 a month
Wait, isn't garlic powder better for a quick sauce? Fresh garlic can burn easy if you're not careful. I just shake some powder in with the dried herbs at the start, and it always turns out fine.
