The weird thing is that he's super-concerned with them and gets squirrelly if you touch them or if you aren't familiar with the character. He might even get huffy about it as he explains it to me, like I've let him down by not memorizing every single person in G.I. Joe.
Take a look at this video for the Postal Service, I mean Owl City's video for "Fireflies." A model train set? Stuffed animals? A disco ball? A speak 'n' spell? This is like a greatest hits list of things I don't wanna see in a guy's room EVER. Could you imagine if you woke up in this mini-FAO Schwartz wonderland? I'll bet his pjs still have footsies on them and he doesn't know how to do laundry, he just waits until every single item in his wardrobe is dirty and then he hauls it all off to his parents' house for his Mom to do. And, that just makes me sad.

I like the toy collections, actually.
A toy collection in his bedroom?? I think it's weird.
I appreciated the jab at postal service/owl city. I don't mind some toys or some action figures. I've dated guys with action figures, and I have toys. It's good to stay young at heart. But there is a limit. Your apartment should not be half-full because of how much crap you're holding onto or collecting... There's a tipping point, and it can get scary.
I don't have toys on display, but if I really like you I might show you the big box of Ninja Turtles I have in the closet.
Ha ha ha... I've got 45 boxes of comic books in mine. Is that a problem?
I think toy collections are endearing! If they want you to play with them (and they aren't legos), maybe that's a little weird but I totally dig dudes with collections!
