what you do with your old memory cards?

I keep them because I like to mess around with older computers & consoles and I almost always end up digging out an old CF drive or tiny SD card for some purpose or another.
 
I stack them into a pyramid. Post your own below :P

Forgot to say also.
I keep them so when I slip up and the filth work out where I am, kick down my front door and take all my computer gear, possibly after ripping up the carpet to get the ones hidden there, I then get to do denial of service on them as they have several hundred cards to fully fully image (I know about sector reallocation and can manually force it).

Also on adapters then I agree it is a heavy burden to own them. Fortunately I have younger siblings that try to relieve me of such burdens without me realising it. I guess I should be thankful at some level.
 
For most, I keep mine, sometime, I sold to GameStop if they accept, especially PSP memory card, so I keep all SD cards.
 
I just slap mine into a raspberry pi 3 and play retro pi

I am an idiot, so I keep losing the old ones or forgetting them in a pocket, then inside the washing machine and finally into the trash can.
I have achieved an ultimate rythm where I lose them at around the same pace I upgrade and get new ones, so in the end this is not a problem for me.

PS: I also hate how both my Raspberry Pi 1 and 3 don't seem to like some brands of SD cards, specifically Samsung Evo that is what I normally get for cheap, so in the end I can't use them for that. :(
