i knew a guy who as an art project in the early '80s obsessively collected combs he found on the streets of new york.

that was gross. myself, i collect detritus and trash and stuff.

why is completing a collection such an unsatisfying moment?

how do you know it's complete? what if you find something else later? never give up!

I should have held on to my chopstick wrappers, including the couple of horrible engrish ones with bad spacing and the actually funny one from some minneapolis sushi place..

I also have a couple of (disposable) custom drink coasters that came from different restaurants. Matchbooks are also cool but a pain in the ass to collect. As are bottlecaps from different beers.
