useful things you can keep in a matchbox
 

pebbles




apple seeds




astrolabe ( or, navigator/timepiece of your choice. compas, fobwatch, etc)




the last of a pencil




keys to unknown (yet) something or other.




the dark.

pretty sure these don't actually fit, but....

i've buried my fishies in matchboxes before.

not sure if that's exactly "useful," but it's not barbaric like flushing them down the toilet.

that's nice.. did you decorate the boxes before you burried them?

i'm not too creative like that, really. i just lined the inside with some gravel from the tank and wrote some stuff on the back just so whoever digs it up thousands of years from now knows how much i love my fishies.

I keep my fishie's ashes in a matchbox.

did you bbq them or?

marijuana seeds, doh

you never know when you need to start replanting after the 'poclypse.

or:

matches

really useful shit come to think of it.
