Just a list of useless crap you find around the house and you don't know why.

1. Handwash soap that is neither anti-bacterial or degreaser. What is even the purpose?

2. Oil filter pliers. How I have acquired three of these I have no idea. Much less know why I have a pair in my kitchen.

I think my wife thinks they're tongs.

3. Small trash cans. Every room has a trash can. Every bathroom has a baby trashcan. If you're putting crap wipes or other waste, why would you want to put it in such a small trash can where you could possibly touch other trash when you're putting in new trash?

Also, lovebugs. Why?

I have about 10 tape measure. They’re not useless but I can never find a single one when I need it. Run across at least half of them when I’m not looking for them.

I fricking hated that my mom had all those trash cans throughout the house.

Have 1 trash can in my house and it’s by the kitchen. Each day, it gets taken out. I’m not leaving trash in my bathroom

Do you even Fall, baw? My wife just spent over $100 on marshmallow, pumpkin, and fireside roasting scented candles and soaps. Neither serve any purpose other than to make other women walk inside our house, take a deep breath, and say “OMG, I love how your house smells!!! What is it???!”

My attic is full of useless seasonal shite that has been baking up there for years.

The wife wants me to drag it out when one of her idiot friends post something on Facebook.

Women do not know what they want, and should be contained.

Phone/Electronics chargers that are now useless because they keep changing the design every year.

She is just sitting around watching some show on my ipad while I watch football. Meanwhile I’m hungry.

Now, sure. But 80% of my old chargers are the trapezoidal shaped ones.

I just did this myself! Fall candles and soaps (plus spooky-themed ones for Halloween). Neither useless, nor crap.

I downsized to 1,100 sq ft. The biggest benefit is that there is no room for useless crap, so I can waste my money on other shite now

I had gotten rid of a ton of useless stuff when I moved to CA but then I met my wife who has more crap than any person should. Moving back to LA was easy for me but her crap cost a lot to move. I have finally convinced her that there is no need to hold onto TVs from 15 years ago that we will never use. About to have a fall clean out and get rid of a ton of crap.

I am bad about duplicate tools because if I can't find it and I need one for whatever I am working on I will just go buy one. Not just small tools either.

I have been selling some of it for pretty cheap on Facebook. Got rid of a few miter saws, band saws, etc.

Antibacterial soap isn't good for you anyway

This is weird. Washing hands with regular soap & water works well for general germs.
