Hayabusa Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Compulsive hoarding (or pathological hoarding) is the acquisition of, and failure to use or discard, such a large number of seemingly useless possessions that it causes significant clutter and impairment to basic living activities such as mobility, cooking, cleaning, showering or sleeping. A person who engages in compulsive hoarding is commonly said to be a "pack rat", in reference to that animal's apparent fondness for material objects. My computer's hard-drive is FILLED with some of the most random and seemingly useless shit ever. I dont even know what to do with half the stuff. Part of me just wants to delete 90% of it because I know I never use it or look at it EVER, but then I get this little voice saying "But maybe one day you may need to use it/share it with someone!" the fuck! stupid techmology Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
