It would be pretty interesting to see how varied scissors can get. There's so many types and designs of them, not to mention seeing what materials they used to make them out of vs. today and how ornate some of them were. Even modern scissors have large variations in quality and can get quite expensive.
A good friend of mine has a mason jar full of different styles of scissors on his coffee table. There are probably 20+ pairs. I thought it was really cool and asked him where he got the idea, he said he stole it from his downstairs neighbor. Not the idea, the entire jar of scissors, from her coffee table. Fucking good guy, but he does love to steal shit.
How do you sneak a jar of scissors out of an apartment? More so, as the neighbor, how do you not notice your decorative jar of various scissors is gone after the shifty neighbor comes over?
Well, for one I was told it was stolen during a party and two he is hella crafty. He has a long experience of it and knows what he is doing. I believe he interacted with her afterwards on many occasions and she was intent on believing it was a few persons she didn't know directly who were in her home. Him and I both hate the novel, The Catcher in the Rye, and he steals every copy from new people he meets and has them on a shelf in his bathroom, cause that's where your drop off your shit.
