Thrown away: The stuff you loved and lost.Smash Wogan writes, "we all love our Mums, but we all know that Mums can be cunts, throwing out our carefully hoarded crap that we know is going to be worth millions some day."
What priceless junk have you lost because someone just threw it out?
Zero points for "all my porn". Unless it was particularly good porn...

Old Walking CaneAn elderly neighbor passed, and I was helping clean out his cluttered workshop. In a garbage bin were about a dozen old walking canes. None were of any interest, except one with a carved dog's head for a handle. "You want them?" said the Old Dead Dude's relative. "I've got enough worthless crap already." replied dumbass Me. Away they went to the dump. About a year later I was watching Antiques Roadshow. It was a "Remington Dog Head Cane Gun" that was made in the 1850's. It fired a single .30 cartridge...and one recently sold at auction for $13k USD.
I was nauseated for a solid week. Even now, 5 years later, I just vomited in my mouth.
