inWarning: my cousin swore I should grind LeetCode for 6 months before touching a real project
Wait, 200 problems over 4 months and you still couldn't build a login page? Bro that is actually insane because that's like 1.5 problems a day, Dave's 300 number would've taken you almost 7 months.

inAm I the only one who dropped $45 on a beat up Lite-Brite at a garage sale and actually got my money's worth
The basement smell detail is killing me because every single one of these old toys has that same musty thing going on and somehow it just adds to the whole trip down memory lane. What got me though is you said her tablet was charging in the other room, so was the Lite-Brite the thing that actually pulled her away from the screen, or was she already bored and you just handed her the next best option? Because that makes a big difference in whether this was a win for you or a win for both of you. Also where did you even find pegs for the missing half, or did you two just roll with the gaps and call it art?

inBlew $95 on a "vintage jingle pack" from a guy in Tulsa and half of it was just the same 3 cereal ads
Man, $95 for three cereal ads on repeat stings. I got burned the same way a couple years back, dropped 60 bucks on a "rare DJ set" out of Ohio and it was the same Wolfman Jack bits that are free on archive.org. Here's the thing I learned the hard way: a lot of these tape traders pad the reels with dupes because most buyers never sit through all 200 hours. They count on that. Not saying every trader is a crook, but the ones who won't send a track list before you pay are usually the ones with something to hide. Sorry you got taken, that money's gone but at least now you know the tell.
