Silly poll: spontaneous accessorizing

We were having a frivolous discussion at work about spontaneous accessorizing using random objects, and i thought that i might post a poll on the topic, just for fun.
This came about because we have a bunch of little fins and cones and barnacle-shaped sparkly bright objects that we're making, and people in the shop passing our tables inevitably pick them up and put them on. The most common usage is to put them on the head, like a hat. One of the first hands on the Pig Team however will take two of them and hold them up as a makeshift bra. In the ensuing discussion, i was reminded of the armorer i worked with for whom everything random and cool became an instant makeshift codpiece.
So, if you are the sort of person who grabs random items--from a horsehair pouf to a bunch of rubber grapes--and immediately sees the accessorizing potential, tell me:
