This one is kind of hilarious:

“Why are old people so obsessed with collecting things like spoons, thimbles, and shot glasses? It's like they want to have a tiny version of every object in the world.”

This falls right in the uncanny valley of relatability for me.
Are spoons and thimbles tiny versions of other things though?

Even shot glasses, while you could see them as small versions of regular glasses, they're the normal size for what they're designed to contain (a shot).

Sounds like a bit from Seinfeld
