I think people who are into crafts. They have all of these yarns, construction papers, various tools and stuff. All so that they can say that they have all of these projects in mind that they want to do. But they never do them so they get more crafting stuff and it just eats away storage until their place is practically consumed by it.

Don't get me started on the broken or obsolete thrown away shit I keep around "for parts or that one time I might need it"

Well, last week I finally soldered the cut cables of the otherwise working basic (literally a transformer, bridge rectifier, fuse and voltmeter) 12V lead acid battery charger from 2007 I found earlier this year to charge a tractor battery, so that's a plus

I don't want to desolder all the relays off this washing machine board to throw it away only to find out I needed a double optocoupler!
