So many USB cables!

In an attempt to provide give my life a bit of a kick in the pants, I have decided to pretend I am moving out of my apartment. By that, I mean that I am going through all my stuff, packing up stuff that can be packed up and throwing out all the crap I haven't used in the last 15 months that I've lived here. There are things I forgot that I ever owned!

But what I find most ridiculous is the absurd number of USB cables I have scattered all over my apartment! Back in the day, you had to buy your USB cables separately (I remember I did when I got my printer right before college). But now, shit, everything comes with a frickin USB cable! I have more USB cables than I could ever use!

I don't know what to do with them. Should I save them? Is there a USB Heaven that I can send them to?

Me too! I once was worried I'd lose my USB cable to my digital camera, I have 4 identical ones to it laying around my desk drawer now. I only know where ONE came from!!

RAMA
 
This actually sounds like a brilliant idea. I'm just afraid of how many USB cables I'd find in my house.
 
What's funny about it now is that batteries even charge with USB cables! My PS3 controller...my phone...my wireless headphones...

All USB!

Guess what the major mobile handset manufacturers just agreed on as the new standard for chargers ?

I've had the same thing happen to me.
They become fruitful and multiply. :lol:

A little while ago I herded all the spare cables that'd accumulated about the place into a box and sold 'em. I actually cut back a little too far, I bought a new hard drive recently and then had to go back and buy a SATA cable. :lol:
