    I have an accessory item with a name on it, from the clothing of a person who was killed. I never met this person.

    I found it while doing cleanup of the scene where they died. It had no investigative value, so was trash, but I didn’t feel right throwing it away. I kept it, in hopes of giving it to someone close to them, but life kept moving and I ended up with it.

      Besides, if you throw it out you can’t talk to Mr Emerald any more. Mr Emerald needs a friend now that his original neighbor is dead.

      This is my answer. When things seem to be going well, something bad is about to happen

    The Sonichu medallion that was gifted to me, let’s just say things have been interesting to say the least.

          Nick Rekieta, a minor YouTube e-celeb was gifted a Sonichu medallion and wore it. Currently his life is not going great.

            Oh yeah. Same one, a friend gave it to me late into its associated history. I can confirm it has come with a higher sense of attentiveness towards negative happenings, though those around me seem far more alarmed at this and its potential existence as a cursed object than I am.

    I bought my meditation cushion in a store in Boulder where the cushions are sewn by the inmates of a Guatemalan insane asylum. So probably that. Maybe I shouldn’t be meditating on that thing.

    After an abusive relationship had ended and I was rebuilding my life, I spent significant effort going through my stuff and getting rid of things my abusive ex had given me. They may not actually have been cursed, but I certainly felt a lot better when they were gone.

    A dude was quitting magic the gathering cuz he played it with his ex. Bought his collection. Found a non-precious metal wedding band. I don’t know where it is now, perhaps it rolled it’s way to smeagol.

      Man, I used to think I was so handy, doing household, appliance, and car repairs, etc ……

      It’s been a while since I needed to do anything, and now I have this cursed ikea furniture. Somehow it took three weekends to put a bed together, and it’s not even done since I broke another part. I’ve never before broken ikea furniture on assembly and have never needed support or replacement parts, yet this effing bed has needed replacements twice.

      I don’t know if my hands are cursed and I’ll never again be handy, or if it’s ikea
