What's in Our Official a2k Junk Drawer?

Help me fill up our collective junk drawer with ... well... junk. Some may say ... much needed and useful junk. Others would just call it junk.



Add ONLY one item per reply.

I'll start by adding:
Five midsized elastics (partially dried out so you have a 65% chance of it instantly breaking when you try to use it).

@tsarstepan,
Two metal skewers. For roasting marshmallows on the stove or fishing a cat toy from between the fridge and cabinet.

Let's add some wrinkled old twist-ties.

Laughing Laughing I lived in many houses with metal skewers in junk drawers where I had never seen metal skewers being used. Laughing Laughing

They were just naturally occurring items.

How about some assorted thumb tacks and push pins?

Guaranteed to stab your finger (50% of the time when searching through the drawer).

Don't forget the handcuff key for that set of spicy handcuffs one thought would be useful to revitalize one's faltering marriage.

A concert ticket stub which you could swear you never attended before or even know the band in question.
