I feel you on that broken DVD player. A month ago I tried to throw out some oatmeal I bought six (or eight) years ago. It's still on the shelf. I probably have two pounds of other oatmeal that is only four or five years old (which I also rarely eat). Every time I think about tossing it, I think, well, I could find a recipe...


While I was writing this, I found the willpower to throw them out.
