…huh. I’m genuinely surprised at how many things in my home aren’t twenty years old.
my HP Printer / Scanner from 1998
Almost invaluable rn.
An ice cream scooper from the 1940’s with a mechanical scoop releaser and a bread knife from the 80’s, both random bits that were passed down the family. Nothing special, just very well made tools. Also a Hala desk lamp circa 1950.
My aunt has a 40’s era sunbeam stand mixer that works perfectly… just needs a new electrical chord. Most things are made to be replaced now. Those not so much.
Clay bowl I made in high school. It’s where pocket coins accumulate until I dump them into the machine at the bank that puts them back into my account.

It’s wild to me that some people have space for a grand piano in their house! I don’t think it would fit in any room we have. Heck, it wouldn’t even fit through the door to get it inside in the first place.
Penis.
I still have a stuffed animal from when I was a kid and a couple of plates from when I lived with my parents. I had to drop a lot of things I wanted to keep, I didn’t because they were utterly infested and I didn’t have the spoons to try and clean it out for when I moved out.
Most of my audio gear. Receivers, turntable, eq, speakers…
If you want to build yourself a nice “vintage” sound system, look for things made before 1980ish. pretty much everything built before that was made to last and can always be repair. After that, they started to deliberately make things that would break within a couple of years so that isn’t meant to be repaired.
All of my musical instruments and a surprising number of tools. A lot of vinyl records. He’ll I have computer thats 25 years old that I still turn on.
A lot of my books. Two harddrives in my server. My couch. My tables. My chairs. My bike. A computer case. A laptop.
Some are not just over 20, they’re over 50 or in some cases over 100. In one case more than 300. I’ll let you guess which would be which.
The laptop is 300+.
can it run doom?
Almost all my furniture, lights and light fittings, a lot of my cooking stuff, my car, a lot of my tools, and even some of my clothes
A Kitchenaid stand mixer that is 48 years old and still works perfectly, but the most ridiculous old item is a 35 year old Panasonic boom box with an added BT adapter that’s still in regular use.
A Mosin bayonet. uh wait, I gotta go.
Good hunting
