Hoarder Crushed To Death

View of the badly crushed and decomposed body of Langley Collyer, which was found in a two-foot wide tunnel burrowed through the fantastic junk in the Collyer mansion on Fifth Avenue.

Apparently he was known as "the mystery hoarder of Harlem".

That'll be me when I open my wardrobe - it's so stuffed, I'll be buried alive if it all falls out on me

Re: Hoarder Crushed To Death

On April 8, 1947, workman Artie Matthews found the body of Langley Collyer just ten feet from where Homer died. His partially decomposed body was being eaten by rats. A suitcase and three huge bundles of newspapers covered his body. Langley had been crawling through their newspaper tunnel to bring food to his paralyzed brother when one of his own booby traps fell down and crushed him.[7] Homer, blind and paralyzed, starved to death several days later.

I hope not, Sharon!

I'm not a hoarder. Not sure what you'd call me.

The manufacturers always stop making whatever it is I like so I stock up. Finding replacements is a pain in the ass, so I get what I can afford at the time.

You could sell my extra stuff because it's new ;)
