Do you hold on to useless crap

I am cleaning my room right and I'm realising how much meaningless crap I have (old receipts, empty shoe boxes, electronic products boxes, etc...). There are plenty of people who just throw things out right away, I wish I could be one of those people. I just don't understand why I feel the need to hold on to all this crap. It's like something tells me "hold on to it in case you need it later". It comes in handy when I do need it, but I seldom wind up using one of these pack rat items. It makes cleaning up a pain in the ass.
 
Yeah, I do the same thing. I got all kinds of shit I don't need.
 
I got a huge stack of b-day, xmans cards, etc that I cannot seem to throw away...don't know what I'll do with this shit, but I cannot get myself to pitch it...
 
I ahve a hall way closet full of junk like this, nto to mention my bedroom closet. Every once in a while I clean up and try to throw some of this stuff away, but I always wind up keeping most of it, then it keeps piling up as I buy more crap. When will it end?
 
i was looking for something in my basement the other day. i found a letter that a chick wrote me 9 years ago. it was a "i'm too chicken shit to call you or do this in person but we need to break this off" letter.

explain to me why in the fuck that's in my collection of stuff.
 
Overall I am pretty good about not holding on to a bunch of crap...however, with clothes I am terrible...ie..I have countless shirts that I haven't worn in years and numerous pairs of pants and shorts that do not even fit me anymore.
 
I keep way too much crap. I have some piles that are almost fourteen years old.
 
My rule is: If you haven't seen it, OR thought it about it, in over a year, you'll never notice that it's gone. Throw it out.

I just can't follow the rule sometimes.
 
If its something I find that I forgot all about then I wind up throwing it away since it wasnt memorable in the first place.
 
I am awfully bad to hold onto momentos...I have an ex's cologne, an empty pack of cigarettes, and a pair of his dirty underwear:) (Ok just kidding on that part) but yeah i have birthday cards from my grandmother when i was 12. I cant seem to get rid of things
 
I think I have claustrophobia, so if there is too much clutter I begin furiosly throwing things in the trash. It's usually big things though, if their small I grab all of it and mash it all into a box where it promptly ends up in my closet. Then I never open them again and keep moving all the boxes with me every time I move. God only knows what in all of them. :)

I throw out everything. Even stuff I shouldn't.

I know who it is in his avatar!

It's the kid from WHo's the Boss, the one who turned out to be gay.

I think his name was Johnathan Peters
