The 100 Things Challenge Movement:
Time Magazine recently feature this:
Excess consumption is practically an American religion. But as anyone with a filled-to-the-gills closet knows, the things we accumulate can become oppressive. With all this stuff piling up and never quite getting put away, we’re no longer huddled masses yearning to breathe free; we’re huddled masses yearning to free up space on a countertop. Which is why people are so intrigued by the 100 Thing Challenge, a grass-roots movement in which otherwise seemingly normal folks are pledging to whittle down their possessions to a mere 100 items.
Check out the Time Magazine article.

i wonder if i even own 100 things. maybe i do if you count each utensil individually. i’m going to go home and count and let you know. i have enough time on my hands to do silly things like that.
