OT: late night drunken purchases…

[SantaBarbaraSker]

What you got?

Just received two pairs of vintage Larry Mahan cowboy boots in my size (one alligator, one ostrich). Was quite perplexed, till I remembered I was watching one of my all-time favorite movies “No Country For Old Men” two weekends ago, after a prime rib dinner (accompanied by copious amounts of bourbon) with buddies at a local joint.

Anyway, had a couple pairs of Larry’s back in the day, and was apparently invaded by a brain worm, which told me I needed a couple pair. Still not 100% sure what I paid for them. All this, despite the fact I have absolutely zero personal or business situations where I would likely wear cowboy boots.

Wife just rolled her eyes. 🤣

I have inadvertently found myself on Gun Broker dot com (which is designed to make ME broker) several times "after hours", and made redonkulous bids in firearms that I don't need (at all) which I thought were cool. I own several of them now. But I'm the same guy that actually put in a bid on a tank on BringATrailer just so I could point the turret at "the ninny to the north".

In my defense, I haven't drank "for effect" since 2001 and I was stone cold sober at the time. I may have a shopping problem. Don't tell Mom!

I was on a business trip about this time last year down in Florida and a bunch of us met at the hotel bar for drinks, then went to dinner, then back to the hotel bar for way too many drinks to close the night out. Among the many things we discussed that night was an upcoming quail hunt in Georgia and equipment preferences. Having grown up spending all of my time bird hunting for Western upland birds like pheasant, grouse, prairie chickens, partridge and the occasional turkey, I hunted exclusively with a 12 gauge. That was frowned upon by the Southern boys in attendance, who insisted I needed a 20 gauge over/under. It was maybe a 15-20 minute discussion that was overcome by move bourbon and other conversation.

Woke up fully clothed in my room the next morning, with no recollection of closing the tab out or getting to my room. Headache. Check. Mild nausea. Check. Yep. I drank too much.

Showered, shaved, drove to work and scanned through my emails only to find a receipt for a shotgun I’d bought on line sometime in the early morning hours. $1200. Oof.

Shot it on the quail hunt a few months later and it’s become my favorite shotgun.

Who says drunk purchases have to always be bad.

Last thing I bought…



I don’t even remember buying them, and they were absolutely worthless.

Nobody said the "wow" would be in a positive way.

One night I got really fucked up and designed/purchased a one off shirt that said "Team Stihl Smokin" with some flames on it. I assume I was chatting with someone about lawn equipment.

My friend in college took a bunch of Xanax in college and woke up with a $2000 purebred labradoodle in his apartment

Same… In fact, I told the wife I need another, or bigger, gun safe…she asked me why… told her I’ve been purchasing a lot of ammunition lately. 😂

Nordrhein-Westphalen flag. Of course that's where my ancestors came from and I was browsing Ancestry.com that night. 🤣

Recently bought an Army football shirt too.

Birds of a feather flock together, which means your purchase must be a couple notches above a Flowbee.

Online auctions are a problem for me as well. See pic above. I own some really cool f ing art now though as well. Also own some personal nightmares that keep us awake at night, and as of yet not able to unload onto some other late night victim.

Happens to the best of us, he probably stole it. When i was in college i took Xanax and went to a party, woke up in my bed with no recollection of the night and a duffel bag (that i guess i stole?) full of electronics. It was quite awkward when i returned all the items the next morning...
