26 of the Most Interesting Things People Own

I don’t think show-and-tell should have stopped with childhood. I guess you could argue that with Instagram, it really didn’t, but there still feels like precious few moments in adulthood to share something important to you apropos of nothing. What are you going to do, invite your friends over to look at your father’s old watch? That feels less like a hang and more like the start of a murder mystery.

Lots of people own something that’s particularly, specifically cool, even more so in context. Why wouldn’t you want to hear about it? Let me say now and forever: If you’ve got something awesome in your closet, yank that sucker out the next time I’m over. Tell me the backstory, the provenance, I’m all in.
