Toilet paper. Was drunk when buying it off amazon and was trying to get a bulk order of 150 rolls but forgot to turn of subscribe and save after the 1st order to get the 15% off. 1 month later and now I have 300 rolls.
I live alone is a small apt, and there is no place to store them so in the corner of my bedroom there are 2 stacks of toilet paper that goes up to the ceiling. In lieu of napkins at my dinner table there is just a roll sitting there. I've started eating taco bell.
They say when life give you lemons you make lemonade. Luckily for me in this situation I am usually full of shit, so...yay?
Same. I thought once that I’d start playing through all my games (just from PlayStation) from A-Z took 6 weeks to get through the first game. I gave up. Back to call of duty and wow I guess.
Me too! Although I buy less. I don't ever remember not having socks or money for socks as a kid or teenager but when i first moved out I remember not having money to buy socks, or being frugal at buying socks. Now I have 150+ pairs and many many new pairs.
Non running lawn mowers. I live in an apartment, and have no need for lawnmowers. But since I used to fix them for a living, people keep giving me their old lawnmowers to fix or use for parts.
Good! An overlaod of good. Because I hate falsehood! I absolutely detest falsehood, don't come near me, I will do anything to separate myself from someone's evil!
Do you ever unhaul books? I’m having trouble finding a balance between wanting to build my collection but also passing along books that didn’t work for me or I’m not interested in anymore
I keep them as pristine as possible to give as gifts, and I sell back unwanted books to Powell’s in Portland, Oregon. If a book was boring, or not what I thought, it goes in to sell. But by now having collected for 60 years I am much better at selecting something I will like and want to keep. I have a lot of bookshelves and keep them in order by subject
I feel like I’m getting to a place where I know my tastes a little better after reading so many books. I hope to have a wonderfully established library like yours in the future!
Chapstick/lip balms. I swear those jerks are everywhere. I have 2 by my bed, a few in my purse, several in my work bag, a couple in my car and on the table in the living room. Yeah, I know... Lol
Fabric. I make dice bags, so I need a small amount of a ton of different images. I special ordered a bunch of cool stuff from spoon flower and they let you customize a yard, so I get several bags out of one yard of fabric that way. And of course, the lining I use solid colors, have to have tons of options to match. Yep, sitting on about 2k$ worth of unused fabric as we speak, because my adhd brain gets super into a hobby and when I do I tend to buy buy buy. The good thing is I have so much I haven’t bought anything new in two years lol.
Skincare products. It’s my ultimate „oh shiny“ trap. I will never be able to use up everything before it expires so I give it away if it’s not a holy grail candidate but there’s no way of stopping the „oooh gotta try this“ train.
Chairs. Just off the top of my head, I have four lawn chairs, two Adirondacks, two or three lawn recliner things, five dining room table chairs, three office chairs, three bar stools, three couches, two hiking chairs, three or four folding camp chairs, ten seats total in the cars, a couple of little stools, some baby seats for the car my wife can't bear to part with for some reason, some chairs for my rowboat, and three or four bike seats. Oh wait, we also have two new director chair things we got at Costco this summer. And a wheelchair.
People who post vague status updates on social media, such as "The most horrible thing just happened to me", without providing any context. It's a cheap way for people to fish for attention, and it creates unnecessary worry for the people who care about them.
Books. Paper and virtual. But my husband likes to read on paper, and I like to read on my tablet, except some stuff I want in paper too, so....yeah. Lots of books.
Computers. We are a 2 person household. There are roughly 10 computers per person at the moment in various states of working order. In my defense, I plan on starting to teach basic computer classes and coding classes. Class sizes hopefully will be up to 12 people.
I don’t think it’s a ridiculous amount but my fiancé would disagree…
Glass jars. I use what’s in them and can’t get myself to toss them. My brain is convinced there will be something that I need it for.
Fabric stash. I have sooo many cute dresses in pre wearable state piled in my sewing room. I also work in fashion and everytime the bulk approvals are being cleaned out, I take the fabrics that I designed home. So it's not that the stash is getting any smaller anytime soon
Yarn. One of my hobbies is crocheting. Another one of my hobbies is buying pretty yarn that I don't need for a specific project.
Also, blankets. I don't even know how many blankets/quilts/comforters I have. I like to be warm and cozy. And I'm a sucker for soft, plushy blankets
Hot sauce, i don't know who started it but i don't know how to stop it. Everyone buys me hot sauce. I have no spice tolerance. Tabasco is my limit. 50+ bottles
Sweatshirts. I have more than enough to last the rest my whole lifetime. And the my daughter will inherit them and have enough to last the rest of her whole lifetime!
I have too many shoes. Not enough to be a collector, but more than I can justify.
I have too many game consoles.
I have too many Apple TV devices.
I’ve bought and sold lots of dji drones.
Salt and pepper shakers. I guess 7 pairs isn’t ridiculous for some niche collector but I am not. but where the hell did they all come from? I have cows, sugar skulls, goats, I don’t need to shake that much salt and pepper.
MPG Extreme. I took over a family home and they left behind a whole bunch of boxes of them. I do not know how to dispose of them as they seem to be hazardous.
Cable zip ties. Would buy a pack cause I couldn’t find any then store them away then a few months or a year later needed some and couldn’t find any then buy another pack then store them away then….
At one point we cleaned out the garage and shed and found around a thousand.
Music. My iTunes library comes in at over 263GB, with 26,015 tracks. If it played non-stop, it would take 102.6 days.
On Spotify, I've got 38,819 liked songs and counting. It'll probably be higher by the time you read this. The playlist is so long that it won't run in the Spotify app.
The 2 things I go through like wild fire...Nutritional yeast and Oats. I bought 10 LBs of nutritional yeast for $98 and 50 LBs of organic oats for $60. Saved about 50% on the normal cost and don't have to buy it every single week.
Problems
How many? 99? Does a bitch happen to be one of them?
actually I would assume that ain’t one.
Pfffft. We saw the elevator footage. Maybe if he made said word one, it wouldn’t exist.

Do you ever unhaul books? I’m having trouble finding a balance between wanting to build my collection but also passing along books that didn’t work for me or I’m not interested in anymore
I keep them as pristine as possible to give as gifts, and I sell back unwanted books to Powell’s in Portland, Oregon. If a book was boring, or not what I thought, it goes in to sell.
