So I started collecting bottle caps in college when I turned 21 with the rule that I had to be the drinker of the brew. 22 years later I’m still collecting and now color coding without purpose or end goal.
This picture makes more sense upside down. Is it upside down?
It’s in Australia
Yeah, Lemmy uploads made it this way. I even tried to correct it twice. When it didn’t work I shrugged and let it be because ain’t nobody got time for that shit.
It’s ok, no worries.
Unless the coasters are glued together, yes.
Omg, thankyou. I was struggling.
I was thinking of making a pixel-like mural where I figure out how to use all the colors I have. I was thinking of crowd sourcing it with friends and acquaintances. Then I realized I would probably end up with a huge multi-color bottlecap penis mural in my shitty real-life remake of bottlecap r/place.
I guess it could unlock a special achievement to find it when the nukes fall.
When I was collecting caps, my plan was to make a picture on a table with them then seal it in epoxy.
In the museum of fine arts in Houston there’s a really cool wall tapestry made out of bottle caps.
Maybe you could do that.
The end goal is… for your heirs to throw them all while shaking their heads and muttering “Diogenes…”
(source: I’ve been that heir just too many times already…)
Yup, the stuff hoarders collect over almost always just end up in the trash and serve only to bring annoyance to whoever has to clean it up. Recently had to clean up after a hoarder relative died, not fun at all.

didn’t want to be known for that
Bad news: nobody cares about other people’s bullshit. Which means that nobody is going to remember you, especially for your table.
But that sad fact also brings liberation: pursue the life that brings you joy!

You could create a table/bar top out of them with some epoxy resin
What was the American flag cap to, special edition Budweiser?
Looks like that is a home brew cap of some sort.
Can confirm. It’s been awhile since I’ve brewed but I used these caps when I did.
How’s your liver holding up?
I mean it doesn’t seem like a ton of caps given it’s over 22 years
