I loved Transformers when I was a kid. My parents never worried about putting food on the table but we didn’t have a lot of disposable income, so I never had the Power Wheels or the Action Figures, or whatever when I was growing up.
One day in my late 30s I realized I could just buy Optimus Prime. So I did. He’s hanging out on a shelf in my office.
The “store things in the recycle bin” people are the victims of a Lotus Notes-ism. The Trash folder in Notes was (is?) excluded from storage quotas, so some people started storing anything they wanted to keep there. Those people told other people to do the same without explaining why and it took on a life of its own as a technological fairy tale.
