Hoarding or collecting?
People have been collecting things since the beginning of time. For instance, my mother used to collect stamps and I loved Playmobil toys. As years go by, items tend get more expensive (technological devices, inputs…). This person collects mousepads for an interesting reason.
There is something curious about these pads- the fabric has anime illustrations printed all over. In a way, gathering these and hoarding stamps or Playmobil toys is not so different. I must admit that the mousepads are much more convenient.
