Things you wanted but turned out to be a bit rubbish when you had them

I have 0 (zero) piece of shit opinions unfortunately.

Oh I meant the bit about being happy something made you happy.

Walls “Wallbanger” sausages, kind of oven-sausages in breadcrumbs, came out in about 1990, couldn’t get em anywhere then my mum found em when we were on holiday. Even to a 6 year old they tasted bland and shit. Don’t think they lasted long til they were withdrawn but the memory still hurts

Bought the 3xCD version, was really excited to get into it, then it was a piece of fucking shit.

Must have been about the same time these came out in the UK…

Had seen them in numerous US films throughout the 80s, so to finally have them available over here felt just incredibly cosmopolitan. First bite - oh, they’re shit :neutral_face:

Also “self parking car”

Used the self-parking thing once ever. Hated it.

I wanted this as a kid but wasn’t allowed it

Didn’t see this but … yes so so shit.

Basically a grater for ice. Took AGES to get any and then you flavoured it with some underwhelming syrups.

Also some ice lolly moulds.

Furious just thinking about it,

The only thing worse than being talked about is getting a Mr Frosty.

Literally only came in here to post about Walls Wallbangers, they’re the only thing i ever properly nagged my mum for in the supermarket, then they turned out to be a pile of shit. Still furious.

Most fancy car stuff turned out to be quite disappointing tbh.

(Except the heated seats, what an invention).

I have nothing to declare but my Mr Frosty
