We have been very lucky and fortunate to acquire the American dream. My wife and I wouldn’t have been able to do it without the help of her family though. Every time I look at the housing market it’s only gotten crazier.

A microwave/mini oven combo (or at least ours is). Despite the name, it actually takes quite a while to preheat.
I hear thermite is good at destroying things.
My wife and I were lucky enough to be able to purchase a home at a decent rate and then refinance a few years later to an even better rate (around 3.5%). We bought in 2019, when the world was still somewhat sane. The thought of trying to sell and get a new home at the higher rate makes me sick to my stomach and I feel bad for my brother-in-law.
When we redid our kitchen I demanded induction. We had a shitty electric stove before, but I love my induction. It’s be hard for me to go back to anything else.
Depends on my laziness. I just bought parts for my new rig on Newegg. I was going to do microcenter, but they didn’t have everything I wanted.
Weed/drugs. You do you, but shut the fuck up about it. I don’t need to know why you think it needs to be legalized and all of the “health” benefits it offers. Just smoke your weed and be happy about it.
I just finished working out and noticed I had a flat after like 30 seconds of driving. It was dark and I pulled over on an uneven/unfinished area of road. A passerby helped me out by holding a flashlight, we were chatting as I was working, then all of a sudden my car fell off the jack (the flat had been removed). I was so lucky I didn’t crush my hand. After that I just called AAA to take care of it for me and I’ll never try changing a flat again.
The was a really interesting Chefs Table (Netflix show) episode about a Turkish chef. He went on about how the same dish has a million different names all depending on the region you’re from. I think it was season 4.
I want to say Manta (Armenian dumplings), but that could be due to me only having them a few times a year. It’s labor intensive and my grandmother used to make them all the time, but now I have to wait for a random church to sell them.
I might have to go with tacos as my backup. Tons of variety there.
Pay off my house, do all the little projects in the house we couldn’t afford, save enough for the kids college fund, and buy a few shiny toys. Then go back to work like normal…I’d go insane with nothing to do all day. On the plus side, my family will have the most amazing vacations.
Have you checked out The Expanse series? I think it’s 8 primary books, with like 4 optional novellas. Its not exactly what you’re looking for, but it does deal with some of what you’re interested in. It was also turned into a pretty good TV show.
Become overwhelmed and do nothing. This was not a problem prior to having children though. In the before time I’d go train in martial arts, video games with friends, etc.
