Anything with High Fructose Corn Syrup.
Back around 1998 or 1999, I went to the Vermont Country Store and saw they had Bosco which was a very popular brand of chocolate syrup when I was young. (It was so popular, it was George Costanza's password on "Seinfeld".) However, by mid-1980s, Bosco was very hard to find in stores. When I saw Bosco at the VCS, I bought out the store. When I got home, I squirted some into my mouth and was very disappointed (I spent a shitload of money on all those bottles). The Bosco I bought just wasn't like I remembered when I was a kid. I decided to check the ingredients on the back and saw "High Fructose Corn Syrup" and I didn't see "Sugar" so I got to be wondering.
Then, I bought some Coca-Cola. It just wasn't the same like when I was a kid. It was disappointing shit. I looked at the ingredients on the back... No "Sugar", but, instead, "High Fructose Corn Syrup". Then, I looked at the ingredients in Mountain Dew which, for a long time, didn't taste like it first did when I fell in love with it in the summer of 1974. No "Sugar", but, instead, "High Fructose Corn Syrup".
I started checking the ingredients on many products and noticed an absence of sugar where sugar used to be instead being replaced by high fructose corn syrup.
It's all shit. I almost never buy anything with HFCS now. Maybe an occasional Coke, but that's it.
But, then I discovered I was not alone in hating it. Many others preferred sugar in their products. So much so, the sofa companies - especially Pepsico - started making "throwbacks" which had sugar instead of HFCS. Now, I prefer to buy "Mexicokes" - Coca-Cola from Mexico. Many countries have banned HFCS and only use sugar.
But, here in the US, we love to fuck over our population and our industries. So, we fucked over our sugar industry to appease farmers in the Midwest for growing too much corn.
Anyway, HFCS = Satan's Jizz.
Bosco used to come in beautiful glass bottles. No more. Plastic shit like everything else.

A Gretsch Baritone with a Bigsby. The soldering was sloppy, one pick up had no sound due to a broken solder joint, and I had to redo the soldering throughout. The spring for the Bigsby was stiff and did not return to zero. The fret ends were sharp. At least the frets were level. I work on my own guitars so once I resoldered, dressed the fret ends, and replaced the spring with one of the great ones from Reverend it worked fine, but musicians who do not know how would have been really frustrated.
Burberry jacket, I got it for only 100 euros very cheap and the quality was very low in m opinion for such a expensive jacket, I'm happy I got the cheapest I could find because if I spend one more euro on it I would have been very disappointed. I was still disappointed though because luxury brands in my opinion were normally high quality but that's not the case at all. they use cheap material and are very thin fabrics. Not worth the hype neither the price. Still a good jacket that fit well and is pretty but not worth its price.
I bought a so called sports watch to swim with. It was supposed to be water proof. It was until it went in the water. LOL!

I bought a paint edging tool for when I paint the interior of my house. It's supposed to give me clean straight lines so I don't have to tape off the trim molding. It was horrible. Paint built up on it and dripped on the floor. Thank God I had drop cloths down
Some room tech bullshit from China (I noticed afterwards). It stopped working after one year. I am sure repairing it would cost more than the original price! 😵👎
I bought a time share way back in my youth. Used it 3 times and figured screw that it's tying me down too much.
I also bought this "Predator" helmet lol that ended up being a Black bicycle helmet.
Then there's crypto. Still can't be bothered with it.
My remmington.380. Chap gun for dispatching trapped animals. Cool. Except when I tried to use it one day on a beaver it never fucking fired. It kept jamming and failing to cycle new rounds, all while I have a half dead beaver on my hands. I had to cut its throat to put it put of its suffering. That was fucking ridiculous.
My Vizio TV. It's the worst. Never buy Vizio. The home screen with apps is crap and freezes and takes a week to get to the next page. I had to buy a Roku just to watch streaming on it. Buy Samsung it's worth it.
I bought a male masturbation device, for when the wife is away. It was highly recommended , but a big disappointment. After one or two uses, I threw it away.
a french hair clip from amazonnn!!! i was so excited & it took 2 weeks to shipp 😭. turns out its smaller than half my handdd😭
@denzooo9 wow! That wouldn't work for my long hair. It is frustrating when you get things that do not arrive as shown isn't it?
@debbiedenise yessss. noo that thing wouldn't work on anyone’s hairrr i promiseee. it’d barely be strong enough to hold up a baby’s hairrr😭🫶
I bought a battery powered leaf blower. It has a lot of power but the battery only lasts bout 15 minutes.
Several video games I bought, they had really crappy controls, and were too difficult to play.
A pair of comfy shoes but they "caved in" after 3 days! Waah. My feet sunk to the sole and banged every walking.
Had to replace toaster awhile ago, ordered from Amazon and it was a total piece of crap. Returned it, and bought another locally.
Anything ''made-in-China''.
I actually only will buy such crap when there's no alternative.
I’ve purchased a few sets of headphones that were definitely over hyped.
A car. That thing was terrible abd was screaming at me when going up a mountain. Never buying a Jeep again after that 😂
I bought a egg tool to help boil eggs so I don’t have to peel them and a grape slicer they both sucked and were messy
For peeling eggs, a trick for you @KittygosMeoWW
is to add salt to the boiling water before lowering the egg in.
@strateguy632 how does that help?
BBQ. By the time I was done complaining the assembly, delivery & it were free.
A male masturbator aka a pocket pussy. Did not help at all. So so disappointed…wasted $$ 😞💔
Mostly when i shopping online for fashion.
Sorry Abbs, this one is nsfw. XD
I bought a new vehicle last spring. Its ok but not what I thought it would be.
A space heater. Turns out my icy cold heart can only be warmed internally.
my guitar. I wish I could sell it for what I bought it for too
A mini waffle maker it was pure crap lol
Cock ring… big letdown
Actually it’s still dangling down there. The chopping is a two person job
Cock rings don’t get tight enough or stay tight enough.
Increase sensitivity and make it harder
Much more yes
