[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kleptomania Kleptomania,]] from the Greek root words ''kleptein'' (to steal) and ''mania'' (obsession with, madness). In the real world, it's an obsession with collecting or hoarding things (which are typically small items like paperclips or pens, which the sufferer may or may not be even aware they stole) with no regard to any material gain. While it might seem quite mild, it can lead to compulsive shoplifting and is often comorbid with personality disorders, which can make things even worse.
