Sometimes I will use something and realize I've owned it forever. It's a nice change in our throwaway reality. I think my personal record is a bicycle multi-tool I got for one of my first bikes, ~25 years ago. Still have it, still use it. When it comes to electronic devices I have a Panasonic mini Hi-Fi from ~2005. Never felt like changing it.

What's your record?

This meat suit I woke up in once, I've had it as long as I can remember

Same thing happened to me, man. I can't remember anything from before that.

Mine has stretched a lot in the abdominal area and the dense, protective covering on the top is thinning and gray. Probably not worth trading in at this point so I'll run it into the ground.
