Who tf disposes glass jars. I understand plastic but as long as you have space, why would you throw them.
You don’t have glass recycling?
Hey keep your hands off my wife
Just like the Taoism concept of ‘Pu’, or the un-carved block, being a symbol of pure potential, an empty bottle is also pure potential
I just store them in very large jars. I have several of these now. Don’t know where to put them anymore.
I keep my very large jars full of jars in these massive cylindrical glass containers with lids on. Can’t think of the name for them but they do the job.
That sounds like those Russian dolls where there’s a doll inside a doll inside a doll can’t remember the name lol

Thank you!
Wooden doll-jars?
>>grunts in Hyrulean<<
tchyia!
They have potential. They always endup being used. Sometimes, to make better use of space I might swap bigger jars with smaller ones depending on the content. In the storage cabinet, bigger jars can contain smaller ones.
I’m gonna take this moment to be pedantic for the sake of education. Cabinets do not do the act of storing as is suggested by your title. They house. You store.

You store.
I read that as an insult.
Ha, you are very right. I’ve slightly edited the title to fix this.
I thought this was Autism memes for a second
My wife is the culprit in our house. Should I get her screened…?
A friend posted this meme on Facebook and my thoughts immediately went to Ocarina of Time. Was Miyamoto also a jar collector? How many jar-obcessed children did this game create?!

Need more bottles.
Break game to acquire more bottles.
I don’t follow the OoT speedrunning community much, but I am fairly sure that it is possible to overwrite … almost all usable items in your inventory with bottles, though some methods to do this basically make the game unstable.
If there isn’t already such a category, I think there should be an Oops! All Bottles! category, lol.
I remember being able to pull off at least one of these methods back in 1999 or 2000, on an N64… at least one of these methods was circulating on GameFAQs.
IIRC, you can actually deflect certain range attacks, like Ganondorf’s energy ball things… by precisely timing an empty bottle swing.
“Just look at all these pens and ink! I could write so many things: poetry, history, my deepest secrets, a book that changes the world!”
“So, what are you currently writing?”
“Well, nothing…”
To real. Pretty good chance that when I do want to write something (e.g. birthday cards), my pen is dried up and it’s a whole thing to make it write well again …
Walking into The Container Store always makes me feel good about my glass jar collection when I see them charge like $8 to $10 for a single glass jar. Their “luxury acrylic” jars are about half the cost of that… I know that the store only exists to separate rich people from their money.
There’s some Albertson’s trail mix that I sort of tolerate, but buy lots of because I really like the containers it comes in for storing screws and stuff in the garage.
I think my dad did similar with Yuban coffee because he’s got custom built shelves in his shop to hold over a hundred of those old steel cans.
There’s a local store, where you can bring your glass jars and they fill you up with all kinds of dry foods. Since I’ve started buying there, I’ll look in normal stores specifically for products that come in decent-looking jars. 🙃
Instead of separating grocery stores by Vegetable, Dairy, etc, we should separate them into Dry Goods, Moist Goods, Wet Goods, and Iced Goods.
Man, I gotta make the trip to our local unpackaged goods store. One of these days …
Commonly called a “refillery” in the US if that helps people search for their local options
Oh god so true. My mother has this disease. Half of the shelves in her kitchen are filled with these empty bottles. And she’s stacking up filled jars on the counters! Grrrrrrrrr
