Strange collections

And some people think collecting old games is strange....

Collectors item? Add to your collection?

 

That brings up a good question, what is the strangest thing you have ever heard of someone collecting?

There's a lady who collects potato chips shaped like people. I think that's pretty strange.

This is the perfect opportunity to buy these diapers for your bedwetter (bedwetting child) or just to keep in your collection

 

WTF??

There is a museum in Iceland or Greenland (I cant remember) but its collection consists entirely of peni (is that the plural of penis?). They have almost every species and even have a man who has agreed to donate his after he dies. Now thats strange.

 

"Come on kids lets go look at the cock museum!"

i dunno i'm a kindered sooul to any collector, my game room is excessive enough to make anyone not on these boards think "weirdo". its hard to imagine the diaper collection though, child toys yes but diapers? on the the topic of weird collections one of the best exhibits i ever saw was in DC at the national archives, it was called "dear mr.president". the collection was made up of things people had unsolictedly mailed to the whitehouse over the years, not the ceremonial gifts of state but just the weird folk art fans sent to the presidents. there was a peanut person diorama of carters inaguration, a picture of reagan made of jelly beans...you get the idea.

can anyone say 'Michael Jackson?' Remeber when the maid testified she found soiled diapers under his bed ?

You might think so Chris, but none of my friends who aren't gamers or AA members look at my rec room and say "weirdo." They usually say "impressive!" or "hey do you have.." or "would you mind if I played something?"

My friends usually call me weirdo. They are not impressed by the great gameplay or the wonderful woodgrain

My co-workers think I'm nuts when I mention Atari or show them my website with Atari stuff on it.

 

They go "Atari?"

I say "yeah, Atari".

 

They say "spend some more money and upgrade to PS2".

I say "Well, actually, I've spent much more than the cost of a PS2 on my atari collection and I DON"T WANT a PS2"

 

Oh well, screw them, more Atari Stuff for me!

[Stingray]

My friends are generally far more impressed by my MAME cab than my old consoles. However, invariably someone will ask if I have a specific game.

Haha, it seems that InanimateCarbonRod and I have the same friends, weird, because we live of different sides of that big pond

I definately wouldn't say any Atari collection is 'strange' compared to collecting ... diapers?! Well then their is my dog toe-nail collection... anyone got a St. Bernard?? JK
