Most Useless Artifact In Your House

... y'know, those things that end up in the junk drawer, and never get thrown away? They seem too valuable to be trash, yet too useless to use.

I would say maybe my old eyeglasses from 7th grade, with the thick yellow-brown plastic rims and the light '70s-ish shading. They are not ironically hip. They are lame. Yet I cannot throw them away.

The cat.

Yeah I know what you mean. What you got to do is get someone to just "Dump the drawer" into the trash and not tell you. But make sure you take out the shit you want.

I got 2 drawer and a closet with a box in it i just know my girlfriend would love to trash.

I have a kitchen utensil that I have no earthly idea what it does. Or where I got it.

It seems to be alien technology of some sort. And it's made of wood.


::edit:: And it seems to be missing. I was going to take a picture. Perhaps the mothership reclaimed it.

I dunno. I'm pretty useless.
Also, that pasta machine.

My old wedding ring is sitting over my fireplace for some reason. Don't know why I keep it.

An old motor from an electric toothbrush. I once harbored dreams of building my own props and I thought it looked cool. The motor lasted longer than my dreams.

a splinter from noah's ark.

thanks man, this made me laugh.

pretty much everything in the 'room you're never suppose to go in/touch/breathe near'

Condoms.

This random kitchen utencil that looks like something you'd smoosh a brain with.

I'd post a picture / google for it, but I have no idea what its called or what its supposed to do.

My house too!

ex girlfriends phone numbers.....

it used to be my exhusband, now I will say precious moments. for some reason people think I like those godawful statues. everyone buys those for me for presents. I hate knick knacks.

Food dehydrator! Guess what? I never made that Turkey Jerky w/ it like I said I would 3 years ago when I got it. It takes up a ridiculous amount of cabinet space, but I can't get rid of it! HELP! Someone feng shui my life!

That was like my sister with cow things when we were teenagers. She had one big stuffed-animal cow that a boy won her at the fair. So all the old ladies in the family assumed she liked cows and for two or three years everything she got for her birthday or Christmas was cow-related, and she was too nice to say anything about it. Finally she had me tell everyone that she was "over that phase".

hell, look in any direction and you see a museum of uselessness piling up around be and threatening to topple over and bury me.......pack rat here!!

how' bout that 3 ft high stack of magazines i just can't bear to throw out.....and a bunch of winnie the pooh stuffed bears the ex gave to me (aw, i guess those aren't that useless, are they???

I'll take it off your hands, it's been a life long dream of mine to make my own fruit roll ups.
Oh wait. . .No my life long dream is to make my own gin. sorry.

Oh man, I have tons of magazines I preserved for posterity, two computers and a printer that don't work and pale_blue_eyepod.

I keed, I keed.
