I see posts talking about good BIFL items but I don't hear much about the other side of products that are bad or products you bought but don't even use.

My Steam Deck and other game consoles, I have the money to buy them as an adult but I found that I have a fleeting interest at best in actually playing video games these days. At least my kids get some use out of them.

I've also noticed that I'm losing interest in gaming recently. Whenever I get notified by steam that something on my wishlist is on sale I just look at it and move on. I started playing chess again for the first time since I was I kid and it's been keeping me satisfied.
