I'm surprised how many responses have... really not understood what's being talked about.
There was a theist post the other day that make an analogy to blind people/atheists and the responses were similarly all totally missing the point.
Does... GAG just collectively not understand analogies? What is happening? What is wrong with this forum.

Personally, I don't collect stamps but I don't like labels so don't identify as a non-stamp collector.

My British grandfather was a stamp collector and he gave me a bunch of his. I actually started collecting some when I was a teenager. I think I went to a rummage sale and got some. I started with animals.
Then my OCDish nature kicked in, and I [had fun?] got all obsessed with organizing them into categories. (I'm sure my grandfather would not have approved, because I think I did them by subject - like a bunch of heads all together, not by country or anything very stamp collector-y.)
So I had two books for a while, but they never came with me in all my many moves (and smaller, urban dwellings), so the books were abandoned and one day my mother got fed up and I don't know what she did with them. Such is the life of a vagabond.
Do I miss them? Nah, not really. I would have sold them to someone/some shop, and got completely ripped off. And that bothers me more than anything. So I ended up giving things away, donating to some organization, where they made a profit. But at least some crook wasn't staring me in the eye doing it.

Unfortunately I do collect stamps... from different amusement parks i visit. You know the ones they put on your hands so you can get back in? Yeah, I let them stamp me and then I never wash that hand so I can always get back in anytime I want.

Suckers.

I don’t. I used to collect bottle caps when I was a kid. I’d pick up every bottle cap that I saw on the street. And if an adult was drinking something, I’d ask for their cap. I had a huge stash of them. Wasn’t sure what I’d ever do with them. At some point, I was indifferent to them and gave them to someone else that I knew collected them.

I'm terrible when It comes to giving pens back. I have an extensive collection of pens I've used to "fill out forms" and forgotten to give it back. You know can actually make big $$$ from being a stamp collector particularly rare ones too?

I don’t collect stamps either! And I prefer a more agnostic view in which we were all created by mother nature. :) 🏞🌈🦋

purplepoppy · Answer

When you lick a stamp your soul sticks to it and it's harvested by satan when the stamps discarded.

jshm2 · Answer

No. But you mindfully being demented over not collecting stamps religiously means you are a cult. Thus a belief.

Hence the joke is on you, as atheism isn't any valid a position than burglary can be called a valid occupation. You can only be a theist or agnostic.

I technically have some I have inherited from my grandpa once he passed away, but I don't actively collect them, no.
