So I started collecting bottle caps in college when I turned 21 with the rule that I had to be the drinker of the brew. 22 years later I’m still collecting and now color coding without purpose or end goal.
So I started collecting bottle caps in college when I turned 21 with the rule that I had to be the drinker of the brew. 22 years later I’m still collecting and now color coding without purpose or end goal.
This collection is at least organized, so it might be that they actually have a use for them.
I kept them for years in a big jar without any purpose behind it, then I had an ant problem in the yard and used them to make any baits with borax and sugar. I never considered it hoarding so much as accumulating stuff that took up little space, in the event that I find a need for it years down the road.
But I’m also not sentimental about that stuff. If I need the space and haven’t used a thing for years, I figure the odds of ever needing it are close to nil, and I’ll get rid of it.
