I have probably a total of 35-40 blank, unused 5.25" floppies around left.
I'd feel comfortable having around 100 blanks.  But since I have so many
machines from the 80's, if I ever had a place to set them all up, I'd end
up chewing through them in no time.

Normal Person: Hey, it seems that you know a lot.
Geek: To be honest, it's due to all the surfing I do.
Normal Person: So you go surfing?
Normal Person: But I don't think that has anything to do with knowing a
lot...
Geek: I think that's wrong on a fundamental level.
Normal Person: Huh? Huh? What?
