Little “tin sign” magnets of old aviation companies. A gargoyle magnet. My REI member dividend (woohoo! New hiking boots! FREE!). I always lose them before I use them (fortunately you don’t need the paper to get the dividend) so this time I’m keeping it where I can see it! ---

• 3 sets of the little colorful alphabet magnets. On any given day, they mysteriously arrange themselves to form profane, often vulgar, words. • Coupons from Domino’s and Pizza Hut. • A speeding ticket that is due February 28. • Various photos of friends and family. • A Farside calendar, whichever never seems to be updated. I think it’s somewhere in the beginning of January right now. ---

Two sets of magnetic poetry, one standard, one kinky. A column from The Onion Three cartoons A take out pizza magnet A magnet from Too Much Light Makes The Baby Go Blind Magnetic poetry takes up too much room for a lot more. I’m usually crazy with pics and such. And, as an aside, once you type “magnet” a half-dozen times, it looks funny. ---

I have the best Marvin the Martian 3D magnet sticking out from my fridge door right now. There’s also a Flat Cat And assorted leftover magnets from my previous flatmate that I don’t really look at, but I think one has a picture of a sperm on it and is for an Animal Husbandry Clinic. ---

At the moment nothing (I am moving), but it will have about 19 fridge magnets on it (I have lost count), and a picture of my niece and nephew, and a hand made valentines card from my nephew. Keith [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/whats-on-your-refrigerator/55829.md?page=2)
