Too Many T-Shirts!!!

I'm putting stuff away at our new place.
I've got WAAAAAY too many junky "hang out in the house"/"paint in the studio" tees.

They're crap but still I can't bring myself to throw any out.

Do you have too much anything you just can't get rid of?

i've amassed WAY too many t-shirts over the past few years, between concert tees and threadless tees. i can't bear to throw out a single one of them.

I love T-shirts. And getting free ones is like winning the mini lottery.

I think it's just part of being a guy. We have a gene that makes it impossible for us to turn down a free T-shirt and therefore we amass huge collections of them.

I've got too many books for my limited living space!

got too many shoes and too many bottles of designer perfume and i cant give them away.

I have too many CDs...
but now it sounds like they're gonna be collector's items and I better hand onto them for nostalgic purposes!

there is no such thing as too many tshirts...

leave the tshirts alone...

The problem is THEY LAST FOREVER, so you CAN'T WAIT for them to wear out before you TURF them.

I would check for STAINS particularly in the ARMPIT AREA.

[/MRGee]

Im a teenage girl.

So I have too much of everything.

Lol I call them my, "house clothes" shirts.I wont get rid of my millions of cds even though I have a iPOD now. I won't get rid of any of the drawings or pictures I drew in the 4th grade. Ahh nostalgia .

I'm a pack rat.

I fucking LOVE t shirts

I have tons of t-shirst myself. I use them for the gym. (when I used to go, )

I don't have too many books, too many CDs, too many shoes (a girl can't never get enough) and so on...

I just need to move to a bigger place, that's all

(2 weeks ahead...)

I went through my closet yesterday and I'm amazed at what I've collected within the past year.

In my main closet and in the shoe storage next to my closet I have over 89 pairs of shoes. I have over 36 pairs of jeans, 26 black tops, shirts, blouses, 21 grey tops, shirts, whatever you wanna call them, over 60 undershirts, misc colors, tons of jackets and sweaters...oh and long sleeve shirts, I didn't know I liked them enough to own over 20 of them....
oh and slacks...I won 13 pair of the same black slack, 3 grey, two brown..wtf???

My issue is not really with the stuff I'd wear out and about.
It's the stained messed up ones I wouldn't be caught dead out in public in I can't get rid of.

Cashmere sweaters. Some of them definitely should go but...they're cashmere!

I understand what you mean about the tees, though. It's the memories they hold - especially because you've worked in them. I have the same problem getting rid of clothes that I've made. I have quite a few things that don't fit or outdated, that I just can't let go of - because I remember making them...or what I wore them for.

Do you have too much anything you just can't get rid of?

the master is the same! 80% of his stuff is unwearable in public, and he clutches them desperately to his chest and says he could wear it while fishing or doing the garden, and I'm like "you do that stuff max 3 times a year, so keep only 3 of these "

I'm looking at them now thinking I couldn't possibly do as many "home" things as this pile of shirts would allow.

But you paint, and eventually throw things out once they get too much paint on them - or don't you?
I made the master replace approximately 5 of those thing with ones OK in public, it was painful for him, poor thing, to go SHOPPING

Umm...I think that's precisely the problem I'm having.

I've found a new art form with T-shirts John! I had a load of big T's that I couldn't chuck out but they didn't fit and were just crappy looking on me, so I took the scissors to 'em I got me some pretty cool looking, 80's style T'shirts now. Granted that it's not a blokey thing but I like it... I'll try and take a piccy and post it

"Mo chuisle mo chroí"

All day, all night...You can be my baby, I'll make you feel alright...

I had the same problem a few months ago. I went medieval on them and got rid of 60 percent of my shirts.
