Oh no, not the end. At the end, you have a week to dispose of what can be charitably described as a hoard of useless boomer nonsense.
Behold the inevitable future of funko pops.
I'm planning on doing swedish death cleaning if I don't go suddenly. Only things that will remain are things my kids actually want.
Oh I'm selling mine before my next birthday for sure. This won't be me when I'm old! I only had 3 of them, but that is too many.
Sure. My point is that every generation that's existed since mass consumer culture began will have their versions of this. Contrast Precious Moments figurines among Boomers to Funko Pops for Millennials.
Yes I know what your point was... but they're not gonna get me. I'm getting rid of all of my useless shit at the same time.
Yeah that's why I'm putting the pressure on now, while they're all still breathing on their own.
There's always more they've never told you about
Holy shit...
You can always call the second hand store to come and take everything
Reasons:
They refuse to write a will, it's now or never
They're tripping over this stuff and getting rescued by the fire department or paramedics on a semiregular basis
There are some actually valuable objects, which they cannot mentally differentiate from the junk
I don't want to deal with this on top of being sad they're dead, I'd rather do it while I'm still annoyed with them
