HoardingWillenium says: I had to bring some floppy disks into work which I had been saving for 10 years "in case I might need them". Tell us when your hoarding skills have come in useful (or not, as the case may be)

ScrewsI live in New Zealand, and have to pay by the bin bag for getting rid of shit.
Nowadays, I try to sell my old electronics on TradeMe first, and if no-one buys it then I strip it down before putting it into the bin: I keep metal bits and cash them in at the scrapyard every few months to subsidise my beer habit. Plastic bits go in the recycling bin. And everything else into the rubbish.
However, I've ended up with loads of jam jars full of old screws from where I strip stuff down. And I seem to have developed an OCD that means I can't throw them out in case they come in useful...
Anyone need some small screws?

Oh dearI just stripped down an old laser printer before I chucked it away and I couldn't bring myself to bin the small screws either.
Maybe we should form a a therapy group?

Why don't you weigh the screws in with the other scrap metal?

Are you nuts?Why would I do that? I might need them. One day I could save the world by supplying the perfect screw to fix the nuclear reactor or something.
