I bought one recently for a birthday party because I had a hankering and holy fuck are they expensive. I can't remember the dollar amount but I wanna say it was like $40-50 for one of those like mint chip log ones.

Yeah, I did this. Then I couldn't even eat the whole cake :|

I needed a little one person iced cream cake.

To me, a normal 8x11 cake is a little one person cake.

Damn, when's the last time I saw an advert masquerading as a natural social media post?

Just because we mentioned Baskins Robins® doesn't mean it's an advert! We just want you to try our delicious ice cream cake™ available now at participating locations. Terms and conditions may apply!

I had this epiphany some time after graduating from high school, and it felt great. Just thinking, "Man, I wish I had X right now..." and then having the realization that, wait, I can just... go get that thing, and I don't need permission to do it.

I just usually feel guilty for spending money, especially on myself.

Same. The BR ice cream cakes can easily be $50. They're kind of irresponsible.

I'd rather get a better cheesecake for less money.

Tsk, tsk. As an adult, you'll have the common sense of asking yourself a couple of questions before buying an ice cream cake. Such as "Will I ever recover financially from this?" or "Can I stop myself from eating it all in one go and suffering a tummy ache?"

As an adult, you manage your spending responsibly.
