Damn lot of good shyt in here

Some I can think of

Food scales- 1 coarse (1g, 11lb max) and 1 fine (0.01g, 500g max). Good for meal prepping, helps me maintain my weight
2l water bottle- don't reuse Poland Spring bottles brehs. They leak. Get a BPA free bottle. I got 2 on Amazon for like $10 and I fill it up with water every day before work. Between that and everything else I get a gallon of water a day
Back applicator for lotion- GOAT... in the winter time, my gawd. Sometimes wifey is just not available. I have one at home and one in my gym bag.

ExpressVPN - I torrent way too much. My ISP caught me slippin' and they shut me off for a couple hours. Had to call in, lie & play dumb :laugh:

Sony BT OTE Headphones - taking calls, cycling through music with the click of a button, away from a desk :wow:

Plex - if you have any type of media collection (movies, music, photos) this is the GOAT media organizer. shyt is ultra easy to setup, and has native support/apps for all popular streaming devices. It automatically pulls album art for music, posters for movies, IMDB & Rotten Tomatoes ratings. You can setup a server and stream your content wherever you have an internet connection. And it's FREE! They offer a Plex Pass (subscription or one-time payment for life), which gets you access to other services they offer within the app (live TV, mobile/cloud sync) but the average user won't need that.
They occasionally email a lifetime subscription dscount for $75 (usually $119). I use the shyt out of this, so it was a no brainer for me.
Great thread, OP :salute:

A gym membership

And to add, a theracane

This thing helps tremendously with muscle knots oh God :ahh: just apply a little pressure for a few seconds and it's a night and day difference. Only $15 on eBay


My roommate just got his two weeks ago and he's been putting me onto this and foam rolling. We saving these joints out here.

My boy also brought over his Instant Pot. Like slow cooked brisket? Gumbo? Get it done in 30 minutes. I didn't even eat this good at my parents house growing up.

Above the fray.
Ab wheel........and a long piece of cardboard to protect your floors/carpet...note that this one has grips, if you have the option get one like this...can do ab curls or sit ups on the flat cardboard

they market a whole lot of useless exercise products, but the best ones are the simple ones that people have been using for decades..can work your way up to the standing ab wheel rollouts when the kneeling ones are no longer challenging

Copped this in Chinatown for $20. Amazing results. It literally flushes all of the undigested food that sits in your gut. Your toilet time is 60 seconds, tops.
Plus, the log you unload is the size of your forearm, no straining. Have you feeling :blessed:

Look up "Nam Bac Hang" to order online as well
Does it make your stomach hurt before going to the bathroom?

What the fukk that got to do with black people?:childplease:

A nice timepiece goes with everything. I don't like the look of smart watches.
nikka picked one of the ugliest smart watches imaginable to prove a point. Tons of fire ass looking smart watches.

Straight up my favorite purchase in a long time. Food tastes better. My breath is dramatically fresher, and I don't have the bad taste in my mouth that would cause me to snack to
get rid of it. I do it 2-3 times a day now and can never go back.

:ahh:Cheap as fukking chips but have upgraded my style in a MAJOR way. I've had way more expensive watches, but the novelty of the wood watches causes people to ask about
them when I wear them. These instantly improve the coordination my outfits, and going forward, I will be wearing watches. Smart watches look corny, and faces with numbers ain't my
thing, and now I can eyeball these and know the time within a minute of accuracy. Can't wait to replace my glasses and experiment further with sweaters and dress shirts.

Trust me, the details make a difference ouchere.
nikka gone fall asleep with his watch on his arm and wake up covered in sawdust when them termites get a hold of that wrist.:banderas:
