+ 7829V Posted October 16 Share Posted October 16 I’ve never been a serious collector. As a kid, I collected bills from other countries, then stamps, magazines, and now plants. But none of my collections have ever been particularly extensive or extraordinary. I guess my largest collection is what I have now: Ornamental Plants. + sync 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viewing ownly Posted October 16 Share Posted October 16 Newspapers. If I could do it all over again, I'd take a photo of crickets that were in the process of mating when I dropped a big stack on top of them to permanently shut them up. I mean, the male was gonna be a goner shortly after their encounter anyway.... marylander1940 and + 7829V 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaybeMaybeNot Posted October 16 Share Posted October 16 (edited) Broadway cast recordings. It's not so much an intentional collection as something I enjoy listening to and own many of as a result.

KrisParr Posted October 16 Share Posted October 16 Outdated spices. I decided to re-arrange my spice rack/shelf and discovered that about half of my spices had expired. The regular ones like oregano, thyme, etc. get used often. But the others, like coriander, were long past “best if used by date” - thus I must be a spice collector. Who knew?

+ Pensant Posted Thursday at 12:30 PM Share Posted Thursday at 12:30 PM I “collect” far too much clothing, outdoor gear and boots. And underwear and merino wool athletic socks. I know I have a problem. I was on an art binge for years, but I’ve stopped that obsession. Oh, did I mention carbon road bikes (3) and high-end mountain bikes (3)? I’m going on an acquisition moratorium. + 7829V and MaybeMaybeNot 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At first, it was just a couple from cities I’d been to, but then it got out of hand. One day, I looked around my kitchen and realized I had, like, 50 mugs, all stacked up, reminding me of places I could barely remember visiting. It got so bad that every time I walked into a Starbucks, I’d start sweating, like, “Do I need the mug from Topeka? Am I really going to tell people about that one time I had a layover there?” That’s when I knew I had a problem. Now, I just admire them from afar… most of the time. ericwinters, + Pensant, thomas and 2 others 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTJOCK Posted Thursday at 03:27 PM Share Posted Thursday at 03:27 PM Well I have an interesting group of "collections" for sure. For one, I have a large collection of designer underwear. Probably not that unusual for a gay dude and wear new and different ones for clients when booked. Also a large collection of "turbo speedos" from Barcelona Spain. Beyond that, I have a large collection of Ralph Lauren polo shirts and another that a family friend started me on when I was in middle school..... Department 56 "Dicken's Village" collectables. I also have art by Jesse Barnes and Terry Redlin which I relly like. thomas and ApexNomad 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
