That and the 3DS made it so equipping and unequipping the Iron Boots was far easier.

When the dinosaurs die, their bodies become the microfiber cloths. And we use the microfiber cloths. And so we are all connected in the circle of life.

Get some Velcro cable ties or some twist ties or something.

Then you should bundle up each cable and categorize them.

  • A/V cables
  • USB cables
  • Power cords
  • Extension cords
  • Specialized chargers
  • Power bricks
  • ...and what ever else you might need

Look at your specialized chargers. Do you still own the devices that those use? Discard if no.

Look in each category. If you have a lot of any one cable type, consider paring them down. Get rid of anything damaged. I knew someone that went crazy on Mono price and had hundreds of USB micro cables. They donated all but about 50 and they are still doing ok in that department.

Now for all of your strange cables, it's a judgement call for you if you want to keep these or not. Does the value they give you (the possibility of needing them again and saving yourself the need to procure a new cable) outweigh the cost of keeping it (the space they take up in your living space or storage, plus the need to have to transport them when you move)? The answer to this is different for everyone. If you have a very small living area, the "cost" of keeping those cables is higher than if you have plenty of space. If you don't care about technology, that space could have been taken up by something you do care about.

I know it can be a big undertaking, but you got this!

Yeah I got potential. I put in a lot of effort to reach that potential.

Did the effort pay off? No.

Did it look like I didn't do anything? Yes.

When I asked for help I was told "just do it." So I kept trying really hard but still the results were far less than the effort put in. For some reason I burnt the hell out overextending myself to get stuff done.

I feel like the task is moving water from a pond to a large basin. Everyone else got buckets and I got a ladle.
