This is a question My Collection

Do you have display cabinets full of stuff? With it all neatly labelled, cross-referenced and entered into a database. Have you been to a convention? Do other collectors look up to you in awe?

I thought I was above this one. I'm not that autistically geeky that I have a Collection with a capital C. But no, I remembered I'm hoarding away every version of "Inside Macintosh" ever published.

What do you collect? And why? I mean, what makes you do it?

chocolate/sweet wrappers
For some reason, betwixt ages 11 and 13, I collected all the covers of all the chocolates and sweets that I consumed. Since I had a huge assortment of relatives/friends who travelled all over the world, this was a fairly interesting collection. Of course, it seemed strangle when I used to pounce on some poor soul at school consuming some chocolate, as if I was bullying them for a piece, only to politely ask them to not rip the wrapper and would they please hand said wrapper to me.

After some years, I voluntarily threw the collection away after a steadily-increasing odor from the smeared wrappers started to disgust my family.
