I think my chip-buying habit counted over years might be more frustrating than if I were to impulsively buy a car. 'twill be a fun topic for our dinner date tonight. 
That’s true, and on the positive side of that, it’s neat to see what differently skilled family members can do, both on the organization and the creative side, if one’s willing to teach, support and make any migrations smooth ones.
I’ve only told one story! On another occasion, I purchased a new car, again without asking my dear wife, because one Christmas, the alternator went out on a two-year-old car during a prolonged sub-zero stretch over the Christmas holidays. I took the car to the dealer to have the alternator replaced, but because it was Christmas week, they said it would be 4-5 days before one was available. I did not want to stay at my mother-in-law’s another day, so I said to the dealer, “What do you have on the lot?” I bought a new car and drove it back to my mother-in-law that afternoon. My wife was, shall we say, “surprised.” 
In short, I’ve purchased two new cars without speaking to my wife about it first. I no longer do that. 
I think it was admirable of you to not want to overstay your welcome. 
Where were you when I needed you?! I could have used that line!!
Ok, guys. Language question: what type of chips are you referring to? Stocks or casino chips? Wikipedia gave me too many options. I guess it’s not crisps.
I am surprised that you survived buying two cars without discussion. I thought one would significantly diminish a husband‘s life expectancy 
. Glad to have you still with us.
Crisps, as in “potato chips” and the like. Fortunately, I don’t have a problem with casino chips. In fact, I’ve never placed a bet on anything and I’ve never purchased a lottery ticket (I view lotteries as a voluntary regressive tax on the least able to afford it).
My wife is a saint.
Yes, definitely eating potato chips. C’mon, @Bmosbacker and I are a couple of Americans, in every sense.
I’ve followed Sam on and off for a while. Being in Australia and he’s in neighbouring NZ! (Or are we the neighbour?? 
)
After reading through this thread, I was curious how popular this video is. Not too shabby! These are his top two!
Time for a re-watch… after my morning run!
i agree. The line spacing in Apple Notes i terrible. I’m having hard time reading my notes. It the only thing thats make my not wanna fully commit to it.
Yes especially on Mac
Looks like I had a knot in my brain. With cars I thought the other “sin” would also be more expensive. 
I should have guessed…
I can only avoid one vice! 
Better that than having to explain to her that you didn’t want to stay at your mother-in-law’s.
I did and she understood why.
I finally watched the video today. Good advice about not switching tools for at least 6 months. One thing he didn’t mention that I do is I have a note in Obsidian that describes the tools I use. I review that note once a quarter and will only consider switching to another tool during that review. If I decide to switch, I update this note and write a paragraph about why I switched. Now I have a good history of the tools I’ve used and the reasons I’ve made a change. It’s been over two years now since I’ve switched any major tool and that was going from Sorted back to Things. The reason I made the switch was the unrealiable sync in Sorted. Things sync is rock solid and that is of course very important in a tool I use every day.
I do something similar. I have a “Digital Workflow” note in Apple Notes and I list my workflow apps. I then list the pros and cons of these and alternative apps and note the primary reasons I decided not to use them. Sometimes I forget why I abandoned the app in the first place. The note reminds me, saving me the trouble of “rediscovering” the problem or limitation.
Was it the origial 6 series? If so, you’re auto-forgiven
