I've got a habit of grabbing a few extra things and squeezing them in my messenger bag on the way out the door.

I don't have a habit of taking anything out. I was wondering why it was so heavy, so i decided to fully empty it today. Some highlights:

1 laptop
1 tablet
1 external usb c monitor
1 Nintendo switch
3 USB battery banks
3 usb-c high power bricks
9 256gb NVME ssds
2 2TB external USB ssds
1 4tb external USB drive still new in box.
4 tigards

And also...
2 sets of headphones
8 covid tests
1 used covid test
8 USB cables
1 Travel presentation kit with HDMI, vga, Ethernet, and other cables and adapters
1 Travel solder kit with iron, sucker, stand, solder, pliers, cutters
3 months of random receipts
300+ stickers
100+ of my business cards
38 collected business cards
5 kinds of candy, including a few hard candies from 2019
5 reusable shopping bags
12 assorted ziplock and ESD bags
@securelyfitz when I first saw this list, I started trying to fit it to the 12 days of christmas music. Then I realised it was an actual list of actual things...
@securelyfitz Wow that is an impressive list. I should have done that tally when I unloaded my backpack at the beginning of covid... it looked very similar to that. *good old times* :D
@securelyfitz "on the tweltfth day of christmas my true love gave to me" ^

>9 256gb NVME ssds

Ahhh. Okay. :P

@securelyfitz You could make a 12 Days Of Christmas song from the contents of your bag :D!
@cr1901 I needed one. I found a lot of 9 on ebay for an unbeatable per unit price :)
