Of all the garbage on the left hand section of my desk, the Gerber Multi-tool and pair of scissors would be the most useful.
Otherwise, I've got a broken Dell laptop, an unused Nintendo Wii (black), a box full of Xbox and PS3 controllers, a fork, a spoon, and a ton of papers, and some actual garbage I need to throw away.
My Ruger is on the right-hand side of my desk. =\
