What is the strangest item you own?

Post Reply New Topic

Somewhere in my room I have a voodoo doll that my aunt got me from New Orleans.

The twilight book series.

It's between my gladius, a longbow, or my grandfather's mortar and pestle (he was a chemist.)

At the moment, a 2 meter tall cylinder filled with water with dead fish at the bottom, and 27 exotic insects. I think that Kat15 wins, theirs is so revolting I fail to understand why any homo sapien would want that in their sleeping quarters...

I was trying to think of something but reading through I have several of the previously posted items as well I think it might take an outsider to determine which items I have are the strangest. I'm kind of a pack rat. The last thing a visitor commented on as being odd was a deer antler, but that's not really strange.

A deer antler is quite strange, I bet 99% of people do not have Deer Antlers.

My grandmother says that lately my bedroom looks more like a science lab than a bedroom, and I suppose it does. I am proud of my bedroom as it explains my personality - Logical, scientific and obsessive !

I don't think I own anything myself is strange but I know someone who has their leg preserved in a big jar after it got cut off in an accident.

I have a deer head and 3 sets of moose antlers, and 2 sets of deer antlers
My dads a hunter.

I think I might win this thread... Who else has a 1200-lb Federal Thunderbolt air raid siren? I have two of those, and two other large air raid sirens from the 1940s and 50s.

If that's not weird enough, how about my TV sets from the 40s and 50s, or a Toyota 4x4 truck that runs on vegetable oil?

A plastic anatomical heart, which for some odd reason, I found for sale among the kids' toys at my local post office. A coprolite (fossilized dinosaur poop). A polished wooden skeleton hand I found at a boot fair - the seller said it came from an osteopath's office; I use it to hold awkwardly shaped craft projects while the paint/glue is drying. A quantity of doll heads. One of my wisdom teeth. Three talking Taco Bell chihuahuas. A genuine Irish shillelagh. Oh yeah...and a Kurt Cobain wall rug.

I don't have anything that odd. I have a ferret cage in my room (with a ferret in it of course). I have a book on correlative neuroanatomy.
