I have a lot of different magazines like Donald Duck too, but I don't think I can say that I collect them.
Hmm, no. I don't really collect anything at all, except for the aforementioned apples. :]

i collect aliminium cans

zworqy · Post by **zworqy** » 27 Mar 2003, 11:50

When I was small I collected these cards called "Garbage Pail Kids" or something. It was cards with pictures (drawings) of kids in grosse situations where they usually are injured or doing something crazy.

There was also "Wanted" cards of different categorys like "Big Sister", "Principal" or "Cheapskate". They were wanted for reasons that makes you hate them, like for Principal: "Running a school like it was a prison" and "Running a prison like it was a school".

I got too many though, so now I only collect the ringpulls

Post by **SveinR** » 27 Mar 2003, 17:32

I am so glad I never have collected stuff like hockey cards, basket cards, POG's and shit like that....

Anyway, I don't really collect anything. Maybe CD's, but I don't have too many yet: 90

Post by **Abula** » 27 Mar 2003, 20:19

Serj: I don't see Finnish bottles there.

Ky.Jelly · Post by **Ky.Jelly** » 28 Mar 2003, 02:53

the best thing bout aliminium cans is that if you doubled up, you could crush the can and wen you had a few u would trade them for money,
only collections worth having are those worth money

Abula:
There is still no list of the bottles on the site. But this should be fixed anytime soon. As for finnish beers we have:
- Lapin Kulta Special
- Leиiиgяad Cowboy Red Beer
- Osa Linkki Olut
But we aren't even sure that the last two are actually Finnish (damn hard language to read

)

zworqy · Post by **zworqy** » 3 Apr 2003, 10:29

I don't drink beer, but if I'm not wrong, Lapin Kulta is swedish. And Leningrad is a city in Russia.

Post by **Abula** » 3 Apr 2003, 13:48

Well well. What's the criteria when the beer is Finnish? As far as I know some Swedish company owns Lapin Kulta factories which are in Finland. Lapin Kulta name is also Finnish and it means The gold of Lappland.

Osa Linkki Olut is definately Finnish language but I haven't ever heard this name. Leningrad Cowboy is a Finnish band. I don't know more.

Amsterdam is a Dutch city, but New Amsterdam Amber is an American beer, so it doesn't mean that much.

For all you finnish (maybe swedish) guy's, this is what it says on the labels:
- Leningrad cowboy: valmistaja/tillverkare oy sinebrychoff ab kerava finland (we think it's the brewery)
- Osa linkki olut: Niinpa juomme. Veda naamaas, etta naukuu. Kas niinpoika iloinen, olvi, naet, totta tekee.
And at the bottom of the label: palautuspullo, vastaanotetaan ainoastaan tyhjana. valmistaya: PUP Oy
- Lapin Kulta: Lattol I, Oy Amri Ab, Lapin Kulta, Tornio-Tornea, and on the top of the label: 120 vuotta tunturipurojen raikkautta

btw: I didn't type all the f***ing accents (too much trouble).
So on the first one it actually says finland, the texts on the labels of the second and third one look like Finnish to me, thus we have them all listed as Finnish beers

That's because New Amsterdam is a city in the US..(New York)

When I was a kid, I collected Kinder Surprise toys, I had over 200, I think...

Igge · Post by **Igge** » 22 Feb 2008, 15:26

Hockey cards and pokÃ©mon cards aswell, although not really a hobby, since my intention was not to collect and keep them, but rather to collect and sell them to the younger kids, whom I ironicly got the cards from in the first place.

Made quite alot of money, and I'm proud to say I never ever bought a pack of them. Usually the kids were so stupid - when it comes to pokÃ©mon acrds, they would want to battle me, and I'd say I didn't have any cards, so they'd give me some bad ones just so that they could play. Then I won their cards, and when they wanted them back I said they could play me again to win them back. Ofcourse I won yet again, and they got sad, but like the very next day they were begging me to play again.

The really skilled part from my side was that I noticed the small things that indicated that the game got less popular, so I quickly sold my cards (got prolly a total of $50 or something (veery much money at that time) And like a couple of days later no one was playing. Ofcourse some nabs came and begged me for their money back, but ofcourse they wouldnt get it.

as for hockey cards i just like begged others for cards, then like sold them to others :D Easies money you'll ever make, kids are sach stupid.

Oh, same thing goes for marbles. <3 Sach nostalgia being out in the spring playing marbles on those wooden bench-table-bench things inbetween classes. <3

Anyway I guess I colled donald duck comics and pocket-books aswell. Don't know why the pocket-books are so non-popular, god the first ones are pure gold.

concert tickets aswell I guess, although I always tend to bend or brake them while at the concert, and then I don't want to keep them anymore.

I was given a LOT of those when me moved to a new place - the old owner didn't want to take them with him. Well, they are in the shed, i never have liked 'em haha. There is about 2 square metres of them.

Myself, i collect "Akuankan taskukirja"s and have about 2/3 of them, over 200 books.

I collect stamps

how classic is that?

Been collectin as long as I can remember, nowadays little on and off,
but still put aside if I see a stamp that I don't have. At the moment I
have more than 1100 different stamps, from 50 or so different
countries, around 400 from Finland. Some of them are more than 90 years old

Also have collected some magazines, but they take so much more space than stamps.
