I throw dust jackets away immediately, because I think they're an abomination and books look and feel better without them. And then I dog-ear the pages because it gives them character.

I must be extra chaotic extra evil.

I throw them away because I will tear them, the tears will catch on my hands, and it will slide half-off at the worst possible time.
