Speed dating type event, but where people bring their collections of plastic containers and lids, in hope of finding some matches.
@dabertime oh gods. we have a bunch of snaptop plastic containers that I swear there are 18 different sizes among 20 containers. I hate them and try to avoid using them at any cost because it can take ten minutes to find the right lid for one container.

The containers I
like have a bit of a problem with the lids cracking, but there are FOUR container sizes. FOUR. And only three lid sizes, and no possible chance of having the wrong size. And they all stack.
@zakalwe
I’m serious. What brand and where do I find these?
@bxknits the ones I like? Rubbermaid Brilliance. They're great EXCEPT for a tendency for the lids to crack in the middle. I got mine off Amazon because I couldn't find them locally.

@dabertime

Can we also do socks? Or would it be wrong to have socks on the first date?

@dabertime @veerlevanson

And then some people still show up with lighters. 😂

@dabertime

As someone who has more lids than containers and yet still manages to also have containers lacking lids, I would totally attend that event.

@dabertime
Also socks. "People! Tupperware to the left, hosiery to the right!"
@dabertime
Ooh, I'd definitely attend that! When I lived in #ViệtNam, we had an eco group and did swap events. That was super fun. There were a few folks who took more than they'd personally used but it still kept useful items out of the landfill. So much less hassle than a #BuyNothing group, when organizing meetups is necessary.
@dabertime Can I bring my collection of battery-compartment-lids?
@dabertime The hoarder’s favorites. What size is scarce?
@dabertime Add single socks to that party too & I'm all in ✌
@dabertime I having a compelling need to help sort these.
@dabertime Yeah, they're hot, but their lids are stained spaghetti orange.
@dabertime The prince brings his one remaining glass container, Cinderella slips her lid on top -- and it's a perfect fit :o
@dabertime And which senior citizens center is this happening at all the time anyways?
@dabertime I can't lie, this speaks to my nerdsoul :D
@dabertime One of my local community groups has something like this. People drop off the lids and containers they've given up finding a match for, the community group matches them up and donates them onto charities who can use them
@dabertime there's a joke in here about tops and bottoms

@dabertime

I'll pass for the plastic containers event but please, put my name on the list for the one with electronic devices and DC adapters.

Thank you!

@dabertime

@dabertime I'm going! Thats all I have to say about that.
