Most autistic thing you've purchased lately - c'mon feel the cringe

600 grape hyacinth bulbs, to be delivered in September.
Love these goofy little dudes, but when it comes time to dig the holes I'm going to be regretting this decision.
And then I'll be happy when they bloom.

I think a bunch of Israeli jews got exposed writing concentration camp porn in the 60's or so. Most of them were women I think but I'm probably wrong. Nazisploitation from that era is fascinating, it was so close to WW2 and what they did would never fly today. Really makes you think about Uschi and her shapely mammaries
Shoah porn was a big thing in the 60’s and 70’s. It was renamed ‘Stalag porn’ as the Holocaust hype train revved up and is now known as ‘Stalag fiction’. Wikipedia grudgingly has an article on it in which they minimize its popularity and impact.

Which is a shame because it’s something that apparently both Jews and Nazis can genuinely enjoy together.

Thread tax: I just spent far too much money on a bunch of new paints for my WW2 28mm Soviet army for the wargame ‘Bolt Action’. I also have British Airborne and 9th SS Panzer Div ‘Hohenstaufen’ for Operation Market Garden themed games.

It‘s weird how people judge you for owning/playing SS even in Bolt Action, but playing an army that basically raped and slaughtered civilians wholesale and embodied a regime with 20+ million deaths on its hands is awwww right.
 
Had to get medicine today and saw a must have impulse buy. 9 bags of Easter jelly beans on super sale. Problem is the 'brother' packing my grocery bag put all nine bags in the same grocery bag. That's close to 8 pounds in one bag. Brother... man...
Also I got a cheese grater for a non cheese issue. Heard you can use a cheese grater on cold butter to spread it on things, and hell yeah, Wraith the mage cook gonna try it.
Also-also got a nice supply of fortune cookies for later. I have a supply of General Tso's chicken and I'm not afraid to use it.

Edit: - Screw you, golden dragon fortune cookies! All those cookies and only 4 fortunes!
“You will inherit some money or a small piece of land.” x 4
“The harder you work, the luckier you get.” x 4
“You will do well to expand your business.” x 3
“You have a potential urge and ability for accomplishment.” x 1
You ain't nothin' but a fool's gold drag-on, you drag dragon drag! This is some chink level work here!
At least I didn't pay much for them.

The UK version of Rule of Rose for the PS2. Not sealed but in very good condition, with the original manual. Managed to convince an acquaintance to part with it for £250 and my second copy of Enchanted Folk and the School of Wizardry (I had it many years ago, lost it in the attic, bought a new copy and then found the old one).

Also very recently got Silent Hill: Shattered Memories for the PS2, still sealed.
 
Notebooks. And fountain pens. A really really nice one that has subtle sparkles on it for $5 from China. Chinese pens are dirt cheap but pretty high quality. Not a Montblanc or anything, but who cares if it writes smooth and looks cool?

And this ink: 07ED0621-AA3D-436E-A114-0BAF13522D5C.jpeg

It's even more awesome in person. So smooth to write with and the sheen is amazingly vivid. Only $17 for 50 ml, which will last for ages assuming I keep my pen clean.

There's so much autism in the pen community, you have no idea. Just so much. No lolcows though, just straight autism.
