We bought a new fridge to replace our perfectly fine 4 year old fridge that is a tad small. We bought far more fridge than we’ll ever need with all the features.

I’ve spent over $100 on puzzles in two weeks. I will be buying more.

Nothing puzzling about that decision. Money well spent. You are forgiven.

Do I have to sin to be ordered to boop the nose? I wanna boop the nose.
I’m also realizing I haven’t bought anything genuinely frivolous, besides like… delivery food… in months. I got myself a candle in December???

I’m trying to work out whether this thread (where all guilt is absolved for purchases), or the Objects of Desire thread (where all purchases are encouraged) is more ridiculous. I guess they’re linked.

I mean, there had to be a begetting somewhere in this strange religion you’ve created 
Eta: I also clearly need to go sin so that I earn my absolving. Shall look over my purchase desires in the other thread.

I’m just disappointed it isn’t “forgive me Pawfur, for I have spent”

You should buy a crown. I was just shopping for a mermaid crown for a friend’s birthday and ended up also buying one that looks like leaves for myself. 100% frivolous, 0 regrets. I’m entirely unrepentant.

$110 on celebration last day of Greyman working for the man food.
Yes becoming less financially well off is a great reason to spend $100+.

I’m catholic, and while I don’t actually care about the thread - it’s actually mildly funny, just as it was meant to be - it IS formulated specifically around making light of a sacrament that many people across the world care about deeply, and some are persecuted for.
I’ve been away, but I’m somewhat aware of the kerfluffle about community standards, and that the OMD forum is supposed to be ‘nice.’ This thread, though funny, is not nice. More telling, it’s not being objected to by this nice community.
I don’t want this thread to be taken down. I don’t even want it to stop. I don’t even particularly want conversation, or to have it derailed. I just want people to read this, and think a little.

I hadn’t considered this perspective and so I appreciate it.
Catholicism is a world power and not one I generally consider that needs protection from occasional funnies which is why it didn’t ping me.
Idk dude. You just want all of us to stop being hypocritical as you see it, but like, idk how to do that. I’m human. You’re human. We’re all human.
And I do appreciate you bringing up that this topic is not as benign as I thought it was.

Well as the catalyst for the fat phobia discussions and now this, I’m going to gracefully bow out and retreat to my own journal and acknowledge that there are others who need this community as a safe space more than I do.

Gentle reminder that we do have an ongoing discussion about this here:

Trying to think of an alternate fun thread title - “Oops, I spent it again” a la Britney Spears?

I feel like that perfectly captures when you buy something again because you can’t find the one you already own
