I picked a pencil collection, primarily because I prefer to do the "write" thing.
I was sorely tempted with the sack of broken drill bits, not because of the proliferation of life threatening balloons, but rather the "I can fix that" outlook I have on mechanical things I encounter. "Broken" implies repair, and that is just what I do.
I've had bad haircuts and I think they are overrated because they just don't last. It seems like just when you get comfortable with one, you have to go find another. No thanks. Though, I have to admit, a bad haircut did last longer than the ghonorrhea. But, that condition entailed much less stimulus for widespread discussion.
The "brown hair" entry had me reminiscing for days with found remembrance. Thanks, for that. It "was" so comfortable while it lasted...
I must make note that the an empty old spice bottle is actually far more valuable than a full one. Particularly if it has been washed and allowed to expend any odor that it once contained at some far away locale. So, this entry was very carefully considered. Especially so since very soon I plan an outing that includes "plinking".
The size 5 shoes would only be a transitory possession. Particularly if they included shoe laces. These seem to naturally migrate to suspended telephone or electrical lines, in my neighborhood. It's easy to see why they are of little popularity in your poll, as anyone with a tall ladder or bucket truck can have several pair of these "naturally washed and sun faded" items at any time.
I took offense at the implication I may have labia. And if I did, it wouldn't be frenetic, anyway!
Perhaps if you had included the term "rental", it would have been more enticing than enraging. Watch yourself.
