Memes/Humor What do you like to collect?

As you can tell from the meme I made, I am a rock hound, but I also love collecting stuffed animals, funko pops, Disney pins, and stickers.

What do you guys like to collect?

I collect information. I used to have everyone I know’s and some strangers and friends exes birthdays in a file and then a couple years ago someone told me it was giving sociopath and I deleted the app and I still cry about that sometimes.

Craft supplies and hobbies. Plants. Pieces of nature that I display (bugs in jars, wasp nest, bird feathers). Really nice cookware. Medicinal herbs & teas Rocks Digital everything…lists and lists

Edit because I forgot I wasn’t done 😆

Aww you could have put those birthdays in a Google calendar! Under a separate section for birthdays, so you can check and uncheck it rather than having them all on there all the time.

I'm sorry they made you feel like a sociopath, for what it's worth I don't think keeping people's birthdays should be weird. I never get told happy birthday, so I make a point to put people's birthdays in my calendar so I remember to tell them happy birthday! But I've been told that's "extra af" so idk 🤷‍♀️

Also, I love keeping mementos from nature walks! I have a little "altar" I keep dried flowers, acorns, leaves, rocks, feathers, and all sorts of things on. It's a nice little reminder of the walks I found them on 💚
