Have you ever made a ridiculous impulse buy that you regret?
Back in the day when the internet was still young, somebody who impulsively bought a pair of leather pants listed them for resale on some website and the accompanying story went viral. It was hilarious.

I can't remember all the details, but they guy wrote like Pasty, it was hilarious.Was “somebody” drunk at the time of purchase?
Once bought a Breitling Emergency Titanium on the street in midtown that I knew was fake. But it was the best fake I’d ever seen. GPS system appeared functional, smooth sweep, everything. This was in 2004. I had watched and had zero use for this one as I’m rarely stranded in the ocean post flight crash, in need of assistance. My only though was that it may just be hot and I could flip it. Was on my way to dinner and kept thinking no, but eventually went back and bought it. Still remember the whole time sitting at dinner and being mad.
Pretty sure I’ve told this before. But also did once wake up to a fairly hefty bill from a particular establishment where women felt it acceptable—even recommended—to take their clothes off. I was obliterated and remember very little. The charges from said establishment always showed as “Casa de” something to prevent trouble for married men when their saw wives saw the statement. I woke up to Amex calling me to ask if I’d truly authorized this absurd amount at this “Casa de” place. When I said no, fortunately they reversed the charges. The guy in the street in NY didn’t have the same return policy.
It's weird when you refer to yourself in the first and third person in the same sentence.I can't remember all the details, but they guy wrote like Pasty, it was hilarious.

Was there something wrong with the fake Breitling? I feel like something is missing from your story.

Those Breitling's were quite the rage in Iraq and Afghanistan around 2005 or so... as if anyone who had one would get a response there!Once bought a Breitling Emergency Titanium on the street in midtown that I knew was fake.

Mainly that if he ever pulled the pin on it... no one would come for him... it would probably emit a "ha! ha!" sound or something like this...Was there something wrong with the fake Breitling? I feel like something is missing from your story.
