DoggPickle posted:Is that silly sentiment? Or human nature? My wife, in training my 7 year old to throw things away, has started saying "does it bring you joy?". My little bowl that holds my pocket change has a handprint from my daughter in the bottom. It's just a bowl, but when I use it, it literally brings me joy. The hideous and terrifying doll doesn't bring you joy, but it does somewhat avert your guilt. To me, those are incompatible. When I was younger (early 20s) I didn't have much stuff and so if you gave me something I didn't like/want, I'd keep it for a year or two to see if maybe it'd grow on me, or maybe I'd wear it anyway. Now I have a house full of poo poo and if you gift me something that I can't politely decline, I basically ditch it at the first roadside trashcan on the way home. I just don't have room in my life for more poo poo clogging up my life.

A storage unit is a really great way to spend a couple thousand bucks saving $500 worth of stuff.
