me too... and i could say that we share the same preferences! (unless that lone vote to a certain entry is yours, in that case we share only a 50%)

I am not responsible for the lone vote. I went with #5 and #6, although I was tempted by quite a few others.
 
Well, today was a different day for me. I am trying to get organized right now, as I am tired of searching throughout my house for tools when I need to do something hobby-related. So today, the second of two drawer cabinets I ordered arrived and i wasted no time.

We start with this. 4 plastic shoebox bins, 5 sorting trays, and a pile of other tools I pulled out of boxes, my house-repair tool chests in the basement, and from around the house (and off of my worktable). :eek:

In the process, I emptied 4 of the shoebox bins, 2 sorting trays, and most of the loose stuff from other areas also got sorted... :D

Into THESE. 2 IRIS brand drawer cabinets I ordered from Amazon. About 70% of my hobby tools are in there, excluding my Dremel tools (they need a cabinet of their own), my NWSL Chopper (I know it is here, can't find it at the moment), and paintbrushes (those stayed in the sorting tray because I don't want them in this. Yet. o_O

One of those deep drawers is just full of bases for wargaming minis. A whole drawer of them, and when I put them in there I discovered that I ordered a box of 80mm bases... that I already HAD... Oy... :meh:

Still to be organized: piles of stripwood, three boxes of mixed sheet, rod, tube, and other formed plastic, and a very heavy bin of mixed brass strip shapes (H-beam, I-beam, L-beam...):banghead:
 
I am, by the way, open to suggestions for how to organize the stripwood, strip and sheet plastic, and brass stock, :meh: other than just biting the bullet and ordering another drawer cabinet (it might come to that eventually, but I think the cats would be angry if I filled ALL of the space under "their" card table.

Woo organization!!!

(Before anyone says anything, yes, I need to sort out my drawer of bases. I've got a pile of clear ziploc bags in the wings for doing that in the future)

chaos will find a way! :p

Entropy is inevitable, so universe will be a victim to chaos.
Unless you are considering D&D and the Planescape setting, where you can have planes of existence ruled by eternal order.

Never played D&D. But as that universe is reliant on ours, it is subject to Chaos as well.

Nah, planescape is a different beast. There are the Outer Planes, which are connected to the Material Plane ("our" universe) via the astral plane.
A gross simplification would be that the outher planes are just separate universes, each one with its own rules. Mechanus (or Nirvana) is just perfect order, opposed to limbo which is pure chaos (with no evil attached to it, as you could find in the Abyss).
Even the physical rules of each plane reflect the nature of the plane itself.
