These two folding chairs have been in my family since before I was born. I believe they were part of a larger set. I can’t recall how many years ago I adopted them but they’ve served me well. I used to take pictures of my action figure collections on these chairs. I believe they helped play host to countless poker nights for my family as well.

I spilled paint all over them a couple years ago but that’s not why I had to throw them out. The metal was bending so badly, you slipped off them. They couldn’t be bent back into shape.
So I had to put them out with the garbage.

I don’t think I’m being overly sentimental when I say that it’s hard to throw old stuff out. Always consider whether it can be fixed first but, when the time comes, you will have to put that dear old thing out on the curb.
