For example, for the past few months, I have wanted Bose noise-cancelling headphones, and yet, I have no use for them at all.   I already own a pair of headphones, and I hardly ever use them.  My wife and I like the same music, and I have some good speakers, and she likes to hear the music when I play it, so why do I want these particular headphones?  It makes no sense.   And yet, I am fighting this overpowering urge to run down to Best Buy and buy these things.

If you ever fly, they're a god send. For years I resisted buying a pair until I flew overseas last year. Oh my word. I cursed myself for not having bought some long ago. They're so effective that you can forget you're in an airplane at 40,000 feet and can become completely absorbed in a movie, or whatever you watch or listen to. If I'm not watching or listening, I wear them anyway to block out the cabin noise while I read or doze. However, other than that, I never use them.

I bought a Google hone for no resson. I don't really use it, I just wanted to have it.

There's no end. I have a 70" and still want a bigger one (TV).
