My husband, did something today?
He added to my little collection of pineapples. He got me a glass pineapple that I'm adding to my book table as a display item. I just use the table for taking pictures of videos for my books. It's just a nice little thing to have.
Are collecting anything odd?

So you collect pineapples?
My mom collected copper wall decorations. I don’t know if that’s the correct word, but she had a house full of copper decorations and stuff hanging on the walls of her house.
My best friends mom collected owls, which I thought was pretty cool.
I don’t really collect anything in particular, unless Disney merch counts. Well, I guess it does technically.

Oh, I collect pineapples for one really good reason. Can you figure out what is significate about pineapples? I can tell you it has nothing to do with its colors or the fact it's a fruit. Yellow isn't a color I care for.

@moffittjc It does, when they are upside down. It's also at this point more of a joke that I and my husband have between our friends. We all know what they mean but we find it funny that others don't get it because they see tropical fruit. None of mine are actually upside down but if turned upside down they will be in the correct signal of so.

@ShyBear88 I thought it was something like that, but wasn’t 100% sure. So, do you keep them right side up and then flip them to signal to someone you’re interested, or is there another signal for that?

@ShyBear88 that's true we should be very careful about the breakable things if Kids is there

I don't keep glassware other than the glasses I wear on my face. Otherwise, its kind of pointless that have things that will break that you like when you have kids. I do get the cheap stuff so that when it breaks, I don't care or gets colored on.

@sunilparthan Yep. It's one of those things I don't like where people have kids, but they are like I don't let them touch this or that in the house. I want a house to be lived in. Things break, things happen, and kids shouldn't feel like their home is a library or a museum. They are only kids for so long.

Doesn't mean I know that because I wouldn't know what is vintage when it comes to loudspeakers or instruments. Some people do collect guitar picks mainly when someone has signed them.

@TheHorse Ah so things that are older than me lol but are somewhere younger than my parents. Haha just joking anything older than me or my parents would be considered vintage. I know some vintage toys, and coins. I don't collect I just listen to my husband. I do know a good amount of video games enough to know if an older model is worth something or not. For my generation collectible would be the TY beany babies, pogs anything really from the 90s. A floppy disc which my kids would probably think is weird.

@ShyBear88 I'm just curious abut the different guitar picks out there. I'd say vintage loudspeakers are anything made before 1980.
