Saw a post like this on Reddit once and I thought some of the responses were quite interesting.

I collect all sorts of stuff from vinyl records and vintage game consoles to Harley-Davidson dealer t-shirts.

I’m curious about what some of you guys collect, the weirder the better :D

    Books, ephemera found in books, tree leaves, grass clippings, pencils.

    Menus and matchbooks have been more challenging with changing times

      Menus like restaurant menus? How do you get those?

      Why grass clippings? I’m curious about that one lol

        Both of these collections have more or less ‘dropped off’.

        Menus are mostly printed take-out menus, though I swiped the in-house menu as well when I could. Now, most of the casual dining places have replaced menus with QR codes.

        The grass clippings were just a snip of a memorable event (cousin’s college football game, first time solo camping, special event, new home, etc.).
