For me it's a traffic cone hat which has "Sod Off" written on it. I love that hat. I bought it at the local pound shop last year.

I own 3 lava lamps. They're strange, in a groovy kind of way.

I still own a WWE wrestling belt, everyone thought that was pretty strange on me and unusual for a guy my age to be having one. :lol:
(I have one for the fun and entertainment of it). :lol:

I have a big tank shell in my garage.
Today I bought welding glasses to keep my industrial style. They're really dark!
I have industrial X-ray films and warning tapes.

I don't think I have anything odd, does a pool table count?

A finely-preserved Opossum skull, turtle shells, Anatomy posters from the 60's, professional-grade microscopes from the 50's, moth/butterfly collections, old typewriters, a homemade steampunk raygun named "Nessie".

None of this is actually weird... just beautiful.

My metal working tools and hula implements. If I'm out in public with some of them people think they are weapons.

Metalworking tools: Yes, I too have this, I forgot. I have an acetylene torch/tank in my living room/studio. People do not quite understand that or why I would need such a thing. When asked I just answer "To fuse metal"
