I collect images of funny animals. I love animals and when they're being or doing something that brings a smile to my face, I have to catch it. I don’t really post it anywhere, I just keep them in a personal folder and send them around to friends from time to time.

I also collect images of all the way sports look so gay... funny pictures where you can’t help but wonder how athletes can be so homophobic with pictures like this. Those pictures I post on Pinterest under Sports are so Gay.

And music. I LOVE music. But not just the artist, I love the song. I love when others cover a song or a song gets remixed or even parodied. Depending on the song, I can listen to the same song by different people for hours before I run out. I have seven versions of Donna Summer singing I Feel Love. Another four versions of other people doing the same song. I have about twenty versions of Dancing Queen sung by all kinds of people. Disney is constantly redoing their older music using their newer artists, and some of those versions are spectacular. I have Selena Gomez singing Trust in Me from the Jungle Book. It’s brilliant. Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah from everyone from Usher to Ric Ocasek. I have all of Beethoven’s works, most of Mozart, and lots of Bach... I have to keep my music on a separate hard drive because there’s so much of it.

I have a nice collection of Day of the Dead items, as well as hippos......yeah, two very different things, but I love 'em! I display both but in different areas of my home. DOTD is a bit more personal, so I have those things in my bedroom/master bath. Hippos are in the guest bedroom.

I downsized to minimalism a couple years back but I do collect cheap spiral notebooks for journalling. Can't get enough of paper. Used to have a collection of rice paper from the local art supply. Oh, I do have a collection of my son's children's books, my go-to books, these are in boxes at the moment. And, my artwork kept in a portfolio. Apparently, it's back to the old drawing board with minimalism...

I collect...memories, pictures and words.

Dragons...displayed on a shelf in the office in my house. Mostly ceramic, mostly all insense burning (the smoke out of the nose effect), one oil burning one with flame out of the mouth...and you?

I collect Living Dead dolls, dragonware and rock/crystal skulls. I also have a small collection of gargoyles.

MONEY!!!! Just kidding. Well, I actually do have a decent little collection of coins from various parts of the world, my favorites being an old 2 shilling piece and a modern coin from New Zealand that features an image of a face with traditional indigenous tattoo designs.

Star Wars memorabilia, mostly the vintage toys or anything Darth Vader related. It's all scattered about my spare room right now, trying to find the time to rearrange everything into some semblance of order.

I collect shot glasses from places I've been and marvel stuff

I collect tea pots and other tea accessories. I don't just collect them, however, I use them as well. Some are displayed in a cabinet, but others are kept away. About twice a year I switch some of the pieces.

Sadly I "collect" most everything, (so far the only thing mentioned by anyone here that I don't have several to hundreds of are the "wooden hand planes" I also have dirt/grass/rocks and water from places I have traveled and those that friends have brought me back when I couldn't go. They are in pretty jars/bottles in my china cabinet. I am not quite hoarder status yet, but my youngest child "the minimalist" is really nagging me.

Was dust one of the categories you were thinking about? lol

After rocks, fossils and stone artifacts I collect almost nothing else other than silver coins.

I used to collect baseball cards until they became worthless. At least the ones I had from the time I grew up are 99% worthless. Cards from the 80s and 90s and sooner are probably worth on average . 1 - . 3 cents a piece. The money is in the cards from before the 60s and 70s really. I think the 50s has the most cards collectively that are expensive. The most expensive card ever is Honus Wagner from 1909 - 1911. It's worth almost $3m now. I used to just enjoy it, but that stopped at some point.

I have a collection of horses, 4 to be exact. They have a pasture and can be viewed up close, or from the road.

Books, lots of books, shell and rocks we find, but mostly books. Shelves of them by author and series.

Both my collections are virtual. I collect Kindle books, and my wildlife/bird photographs. I store photos and videos on Google Drive.
