Odd things you collect
For me it would be coffee mugs, bookmarks, and towels.
shareHotel pens
shareFishing reels, guns, knives, old tools, anything to do with industry or agriculture ('Americana' I think they call it,) vinyl albums and comic books
Probably other stuff I can't think of just now
I recently acquired four small paintings that I would call 'folk art...'
They are primitive but charming (barns, silos in a snowy field, New England villages, that sort of subject matter)
I may buy more folk art if I happen across it
My lovely wife is very patient with me:)
Dude. That borders on hoarding.
Some spartan individuals would argue that it actually is. Hoarding.
Music memorabilia.
Vinyl, CDs.
Concert ticket stubs.
Comics.
I do collect movie ticket stubs, which gets me an odd look at the register, because everybody just uses their phone these days.
sharePlaying cards
shareGamblers anonymous can help
shareHahaha good guess but I'm not much of a gambler. The root of my addiction is far geekier than that; I'm a huge fan of magic and mentalism and am an avid hobbyist. In addition to cards I collect magic/mentalism books (I have a particular love of old texts).
shareI was an independent buyer for a wholesale textbook company for several years. I wound up with a bunch of interesting texts on odd and diverse subjects.My girlfriend thought I was damned weird.
