My smooth pocket stone.
My Zip discs. Kids today barely recognise floppies; they'd be completely stumped with those fat floppies that don't seem to fit anywhere.
probably the zombie porn.
yeah... that or the Dino porn.
A wicker elephant
I have a plushie Yoshi amiibo from Yoshi's Woolly World, and I've stuck every whisker I've found from my cats into its head, so now it looks like one of those troll dolls.
I have this same plushie and am horrified by this image
It only gets ~~worse~~ better with time. This is what yours could become.
Aside from adult items, it would be my collection of 400 keys all on a bunch of different connected key rings or maybe my rum bottle full of used needles.
rum bottle full of used needles.
well, yeah... that'd would be.... a biohazard to cherish lol
In my desk drawer is a small, plastic black box. Emerging from its surface is a toggle switch, some lights and wires that end in alligator clips. There is no writing at all, inside or out, It starts blinking lights and making an ominous buzzing sound if you let the wires touch each other while it's turned on. I built it myself, and you've got no hope of figuring out what it's for if you don't know already.
spoiler
It's a test light for setting the external ignition timing on airplane engines, to make sure both spark plugs in each cylinder fire at the same time. I doubt even most aircraft mechanics would recognize it because it doesn't look like a "real" one.
I have a collection of Quack medical devices from the early 1900s. Some of them are used now as electrostatic sex toys.
I'd love to see pictures !
Probably curious about why I, an atheist, have the Book of Mormon, the Catholic Apocrypha, the Books of Enoch, the Quran, and the standard Bible along with my collection of books on energy healing and astrology.
I mean, in my personal experience, non-believers study religion a lot more than ardent adherents.
hence the distinct lack of affiliation.
Those books all together in one place would tell me you're probably an atheist without even knowing you
Well-read atheists have more credibility
If an atheist didnt have these I'd consider them a contrarian rather than an atheist. Maybe agnostic but not an atheist, atheists have made an informed decision which you can't do without being informed.
I don't have to read fairy tales to refute that they were real events that actually happened. I would tend to agree with your overall sentiment, but if someone was raised non-religious, had to take history classes, and had a light exposure to different mythological frameworks, I would not say that they are uninformed if they claim to be atheist. I dont have to do a deep dive on Christmas lore to come to the conclusion that Santa is not real.
My reaction would be "I guess they were well-informed about their choices."
I'm the guy in the office people come to when they need something. Ibuprofen? Got it. Superglue? Got it. Change for the vending machine? Yup. I keep the change in an envelope I've labeled "petty cash". Inside that envelope , I have a smaller envelope that I've labeled "mad money". I have about $27 worth of Monopoly money in that one.
I have a ton of unique 3d printed firearms. They are legal for me to make and own where I live, but I can't legally sell them or give them away so they have just accumulated over the years haha
nothing, because I doubt anyone that would clean out my belongings would give enough of a fuck to think about anything before stuffing it into a bag and throwing it in a dumpster.
I have four big black bins in my closet, full of… adult stuff I think those would definitely qualify. Maybe the foxtails, or my hot pink bunny mask, I’ve got a bunch of weird costumes that would raise eyebrows
I don’t think anyone in my family is ready to confront the reality of a knotted dragon dick, but my friends have all seen Chance before!
I have a family member who has walked in on tail things, but even that family member would not be prepared for the sheer quantity of tails…
Remember that one really dark hentai that became a meme, "Emergence" or "Metamorphosis?"
I got the bright idea to get a paperback copy of it and now it's just waiting for some catastrophe to unearth it from its hiding place, like a time capsule of bad decisions
A Time Capsule of Bad Decisions.
I like that.
