Cord and cable conundrum

[Anonymous]

Figure out how much space you want to devote to these cables - a shoebox? Something slightly larger?

Sort thru them, remove any duplicates (keep the longest one of each type) and put them in the box. If they don't fit, get rid of the ones you know are useless (e.g., cables to connect old monitors to computers, co-ax cables).

Then take the ones you're getting rid of to your county/city dump.

So passive aggressive and immoral. Those people are basically like thieves and liars who do petty underhanded things like that. They will get what's coming to them one way or the other. The Karma god of lost cords will unleash his vengance.

It's marital property.

Oh sure, sure.

Now he throws out some of your clothes and shoes that he doesn't like, and sells some of your jewelry. See how that goes.

Women's stuff is different. They have emotional attachments.

Fine by me. My adhd husband could have at it. He’d get distracted halfway through and start another project. That’s why I toss random crap he’s collected. In 25 years of marriage he’s never noticed what’s gone. Flame away

PP you're quoting - I meant to say - dump or BestBuy etc with electronics recycling.

Partly for sustainability reasons, but really because sometimes people are reluctant to throw things away is they see it as wasteful - especially something like cords and electronics that would just sit in a landfill and possibly leach metals etc into the environment (it's not logical). Knowing you're getting rid of something in the best way possible can make it easier to get rid of stuff.

allow yourself one box. clean them up so the cords fit in. get rid of anything you obviously don't have anymore and purge duplicates.

Just toss them. It's freeing. Unless you like living with clutter.

Good to empty your bank accounts, safes, and wallets also. All those numbers and money and jewelry cluttering everything up!
Get rid of those clothes, one set is enough! No need to clutter up your house with furniture, many cultures sleep on the floor.
Throw out all those papers at the office, clutter, clutter, clutter! Become a monk!

I can picture your house now. I can see my counters and floors. Can you?
