No dad, YOU never know when you might need them. I know for sure that keeping charging cables and headphones with proprietary connectors will never again be useful.

My father overdid it by keeping everything you might need one day. Life went on, he got old and circumstances forced him to throw everything away, without the chance of going through all the stuff and maybe keep things that really had value to him, in any way.

This experience is teaching me to get rid of things.

Your guys' box isn't full of HDMI and USB mini/micro?

Oh and I have 150ft of coax, don't ask why, I don't fucking remember

Does anyone need some old SCART, VGA, DVI, serial, parallel, USB type B, coax, RJ11 cables? And that's only the stuff I know the names of.

My coax was all purged the first time I moved into a house with fiber. Good riddance
