It has long been my belief that you can tell a lot about a person by looking at their refrigerator magnets. Think about it. Your fridge magnets can reflect who or what is important to you, what you are interested in, what you find funny, and where you’ve been. Without a doubt they will indicate whether or not you have children.

You can also tell a great deal by how the fridge magnets are arranged. If they’re all neat and straight and arranged like a platoon of little magnetic soldiers, that person is most likely controlling and quite possibly obsessive compulsive. If they’re sloppy and haphazard, that person is busy, has other priorities, or is disorganized. An overabundance of fridge magnets means you (gasp!) like to collect fridge magnets.

My magnets, as you can see below, are all about my travels. Travel has always been my reason for being.

I find people who have no fridge magnets to be highly suspect. I mean, what have you got to hide? Don’t make me explore the contents of your refrigerator, now…

  3. […] where they had two very dusty postcards. One was yellowed and from 1970. So much for adding to my fridge magnet […]

  4. […] them when I’m gone. It’s senseless. So I switched over to something cheaper and smaller—refrigerator magnets. They do take up less space. But I may never see the surface of my fridge […]

  5. […] because the ranger station was closed. But the gift shop was open, so we were able to add another fridge magnet to our collection. […]
