Are We Hoarders?

[gertsy]

I just watched an episode of hoarders and I thought to myself, hmm, I have some of those tendencies.  Although I keep my activities to a discreet list of machines (and associated products) I’ve owned previously.
What about everyone else?  Are there some feelings of "my stuff is encroaching on my living space?"

I am, apparently.

It wasn't a poll.  But the general concensus is No.  
At worst collectors.
I think the problem of hoarding is that it gets in the way of living; Health risk, Impared function, economic impact.  So I guess we can generally get away with one or two of those without risking classification.
