Ozzy Osbourne - he just sends me over the edge every time I watch him perform or sing. It literally get butterflies in my stomach whenever I see pictures of him. Its crazy 😃

Elephants - I love elephants. They are so intelligent and gentle and wonderful to watch. I collect them. My house is full of elephants 🙂

I’ve only recent discovered Pairs 2, but it is a great way to pass time. I never quite got the hang of Bantumi though.  
Snake is another story. A guy I know was playing around with my phone and beat my Snakes highscore. I had to play it nearly non-stop until I beat his score. I was lighting operator for a play at the time, and I would sit there inbetween cues trying to beat his damn score! But I would call that more of an obesession as opposed to a non-sexual fetish.

Another one from me…  
It is dangerous to take me through the Kitchens section at Ikea. ::swoon:: I nearly lose it right there.

I’ve just had my girlfriend bugging the hell out of me and reiterating that this is supposed to be a non-sexual fetish thread. 🙂 I really should clarify that not only does he give me butterflies every time I see him, I also collect Ozzy memoribilia. I really have to apologise for getting off on a tangent. When it comes to Ozzy, I can’t help myself. 😃 😃

Watches. I love them. I suck with time, but I love watches. I feel naked without one. Currently, I’m using what is probably the longest-lasted watch (or anything, for that matter) I’ve ever owned. One of the first generation Fossil watches. It’s a wind-up, and has a transparent lens and backplate, so you can see all of the clockwork inside. It tends to lose about 2 min/day, so it’s not the most accurate, but it looks hella cool.

Maps. Hell, yes. I don’t collect them, really, but I do love them. Just the notion that they’re about places, you know?

Crutchfield catalogs. I remember back in college that New Crutchfield Day was just as big as New Playboy Day. I’m not a ricer, and, while I’m not exactly fine with factory audio, it works, but I do like the fantasy of having a kick-ass high-end audio system with which to blast White Sripes, Mr. Bungle, Rocket From The Crypt or They Might Be Giants from.
