Oh no, not the end. At the end, you have a week to dispose of what can be charitably described as a hoard of useless boomer nonsense.

    Oh I'm selling mine before my next birthday for sure. This won't be me when I'm old! I only had 3 of them, but that is too many.

    Sure. My point is that every generation that's existed since mass consumer culture began will have their versions of this. Contrast Precious Moments figurines among Boomers to Funko Pops for Millennials.

    Reasons:

    1. They refuse to write a will, it's now or never

    2. They're tripping over this stuff and getting rescued by the fire department or paramedics on a semiregular basis

    3. There are some actually valuable objects, which they cannot mentally differentiate from the junk

    4. I don't want to deal with this on top of being sad they're dead, I'd rather do it while I'm still annoyed with them
