I finally stopped buying those 99 cent writing prompt cards

I had this drawer full of those little prompt cards you get at bookstores, probably 40 of them after a year. Every time I sat down to write, I'd shuffle through them and feel like I was doing homework instead of making a story. Then I tossed them all and started using random news headlines from my local paper, and my scenes got so much more specific and weird. Has anyone else ditched a writing tool that just made them freeze up?
