Ironed sheets.
A good Japanese knife. One is enough.

Aren't most of these things mentioned a bit pompous and gay. (21 suits or whatever) How about cool stuff like super powerful torches or a motorbike or a spacesuit?

Same reason I have Zod! I first used it playing Quake.
I had an MS Dos bot pack (I think that was the term) so that I could play multi player against the computer. Christ I loved that!
I used to play over dial-up internet. The pan!

I recently purchased a diamond coated lawnmower blade sharpening tool from aldi, I'm really proud of it and tell anyone who I thinks listening. It's strange but most develop an urgent compulsion to get somewhere else quickly...
