tim had a video on the try guys video and i think he brought it up on rogan too. my speculation would be that with life being easier, demand for it in bodies just simply doesn't happen. eg. as more manual labor has become desk jobs, body doesn't signal for it to be produced.
separately, in the fitness space you seem to have a fair amount of young people on some version of steroids now, who either are influencers or are mimicing their favorite influencers. eg. this dude with crazy low testosterone
seems to have kinda admit he did stuff here
HUGE SALT AND PEPPER COLLECTION - antiques - by owner - collectibles...
We are long time collectors and antique and collectible dealers. When we moved to a much smaller house five years ago, we put our major collections in storage. It’s now time to get them sold. Our...

So Bae was going through random boxes she brought home from her prior job. It had a few gift bags, she's always gotten gift bags.
Well the one manager is the absolute definition of boomer. The bitch gave out air freshener REFILLS in which NO ONE had the original air freshener holder/disperser... She then told everyone "oh hey just open them up and stick them under your car seat they still work great!"

I love how people justify hoarding complete garbage by saying they are "antique dealers"HUGE SALT AND PEPPER COLLECTION - antiques - by owner - collectibles...

the most boomer part of the whole thing too...
(Cabinets not included!)
better part is imagine how much time and effort went into storing that shit and then actually PAYING TO STORE IT FOR FIVE FUCKING YEARS.
Yup. Hoarding/booming is a fucking sickness. They will never ever accept they paid more for storage then what they will make on those shakers.
Again, hoarder mom is the same way. Last I heard she has 2 storage units she's paying with absolutely zero plans of doing anything with the contents besides keeping them.
People have a strange concept of the worth of their stuff. I don't throw rocks, considering they'd be like "wtf are these? Car parts or scrap?"
I've only ever used a storage place once in my life, and that was because we needed about 4 months to store shit before buying the new house. Storing it permanently? That $125-200 a month adds up real damn quick and I'd have to question the value of keeping almost anything that way.
My father in law had a couple units, every few years we'd bail him out. We were younger and had a bit of money, but we basically would buy some stuff out of them to get them out of hock. I don't know how much shit otherwise he threw out too tbh. He certainly ended up paying out way more than it was worth honestly.
I do that most of the time after hitting an estate sale. May not be a lot but even a bit.
My dad was a horrible hoarder. When he passed in late 18, he had already been in a nursing home and we were already planning on selling his condo and had started clearing it out.
This man had paper pay stubs from the 60s still in the condo. Auto show plastic bags from the 80s and 90s from the different manufacturers. So much stuff. It took us probably 200 hours to just clear out his crap and get the condo cleaned up and in a condition ready to sell. What a pain in the ass that was.
What little paper we get I tend to put in envelopes by year so I can toss that shit as appropriate.
i have some of my bullshit at my parents house, but other bullshit in a storage facility, where they have of course upped the rent too. it's $151 now vs. $79.20 when i started. plenty of stuff in it that's arguably crap, like my comic book collection i haven't touched since 18; my classic computer games and console collection, random car parts, etc. at a run rate of $151 that's $1812/yr. since jan 2020 i've been in the US a total of like 45 days. surely already past my replacement cost of even just throwing this all in the trash and buying it again should i ever want it. some sentimental value in that turbografx-16 being MY turbo, but you can buy one on ebay for $150 and god knows the next time i decide to play bonk's adventure. i played blazing lazers in a computer gaming museum in stockholm a few years ago. brought back mammories
we have tax documents going back to when we first got married. Probably don't need to keep them.
We have a container in the basement with misc manuals and documents that we need to keep from purchases, but it's semi-organized.
I think about hoarder issues a lot now that I'm mid 50s and my inlaws are early 80s. I'm actually pretty decisive when it comes to selling, giving away and throwing out stuff we don't need or use. The only collection I have is around (80) 70s/80s Japanee robots, they don't take up a lot of room lol.
MIL is a stage 5 classic hoarder. She could easily be on those hoarding shows. I guarantee it will take at least 8 roll off dumpsters when that day comes. Hell, maybe 10.
That's where my mom is. I've watched those shows for years and have diagnosed her purely off of their bullshit cause she's on the same stuff
We put our house on a diet every Spring and Fall. A small amount of family heirlooms are kept.
That said, I too have emptied a family members residencies, getting it ready for sale. It is a little surreal to estate sale or throw their belongings (life) away into a dumpster. Most artifacts has a history or story to tell from that point in their life.
I like to keep the pictures and at times I’ve been able to a tie a piece of jewelry or clothing to an old photo from their earlier days (1950s - 90s).
