Ok, so I pulled the trigger on a 3d printer. 1 big issue...

If you got through a whole spool without any issues I really don't see your extruder going bad in that timeframe, but idk
That's the thing. The first spool worked totally fine, no issues at all. Second spool, immediately having issues. So I thought maybe I'd bought some kind of wrong filament, but it doesn't seem like it's any different than the first spool aside from color(packaged one was white, purchased is black).

Idk... I was looking over the subreddit earlier, but didn't see it mentioned. I mean, it sounds like similar issues to a faulty extruder, but like you said, it wouldn't go bad that quickly. It was literally perfectly fine 2 minutes earlier.
