Prepping Bingo: Who’s Got the Weirdest Bug-Out Item?

Ever pack your bug-out bag and suddenly realize you’re trying to fit a full-sized rolling pin next to the paracord? I once tried to justify a slightly cracked garden gnome as “multi-purpose.” What’s the weirdest, silliest, or most questionable thing in your BOB right now? No judgment—if

Had to laugh at the garden gnome! I just checked my own bag and found...a souvenir moon rock I picked up at a science fair. No clue what panicked logic convinced me that would be a survival essential, but it’s staying—for “morale.” Anyone else have a totally useless but highly sentimental item riding along?

Found an old rubber chicken wedged by my radio kit—don’t ask, long story. If I get bored during a crisis, at least I’ll have emergency comedy, right? Anyone else pack "entertainment"?

A moon rock, StarlitNavigator? That’s truly out of this world—literally! I thought my backup stash of googly eyes (for keeping spirits up on gloomy days) was odd, but you’ve taken the prize for cosmic prepping. Now I’m wondering if I should tuck a meteorite into my seed tin, just in case I need some intergalactic luck. Got any other space artifacts in there, or is the moon rock your only celestial companion?
 
Can’t top a moon rock, but I did squeeze a tiny ceramic frog in with my bandages—he’s my good luck charm! Anyone bring anything that’s supposed to ward off bad vibes?
