A man just came to collect a chest of drawers via Freecycle. 20 mins later we conclude it will not fit in his car despite my having disassembled it more in the driveway. The total pointlessness of the interaction feels like a metaphor for something.

It is a problem of the recycling community, lots of people just like free stuff, they might not necessarily need it, or they would prepare for it. Hope it doesn’t get wasted. 💚
Not a metaphor, just the realisation that if you try to part with it again in this way, you need to specify the dimensions of the (now dissembled) chest of drawers 😀
Haha...after I had said that, I did wonder whether you might have. And as you did, then, simply, doh! It's just people are people (some of whom don't think to check whether their vehicle will accommodate the item!). If there is a metaphor there, it's (clearly) beyond me :).
