What is something you wanted as a kid and bought now that you're an adult with disposable income? (leminal.space)

I really wanted a modded Xbox 360 when I was younger because I thought being able to play 'backed up' games and having a custom dashboard was really neat.

I ended up buying one last year to fulfill that childhood wish.

A sodastream machine.

Turns out I don't like most of their syrups though, so I mainly drink fizzed tap water and the occasional lemon squash.

SodaStream is cool and all but I've found Sparkel to be better

Basically the same thing but you provide the Citrix acid and baking soda to make the carbonation right in the machine so it's wayyyyyyy cheaper to run.

Also doesn't void warranty to use alcohol in it, shits great for everything from recarbonsting flat soda to giving alcoholic mixed drinks some fizz

Someone on Amazon reviews even carbonated their milk like a madman
