Because the context of the original part of this discussion might get lost on some future reader, I just want to make sure I clarify Devin's answer:
You can not discard
Items or cards from your hand simply for the sake of discarding them. Races and Classes that you have in play (and subsequently
Half Breed and
Super Munchkin) can be discard at any time (i.e., you don't even have to wait for it to be your turn to discard them).
I checked, and what I wrote for the FAQ a "few" years ago still exists:

A. This depends on the type of card. First, it must be in play in front of you (no discarding other people's cards, silly). Race and Class cards (including Half-Breed and Super Munchkin) can be discarded at any time, including to power a special ability, but not an ability for the discarded Race or Class (unless the ability requires discarding that particular Race or Class). Curses that remain on the table in front of you cannot be discarded. Item cards are the only cards that can be traded, and, as long as they aren't prevented from being discarded (say, by a Curse), can only be discarded in the following ways:
- As part of a sale (but only if you have enough to buy at least 1 level)
- To power a special ability of a Class/Race or another card
- To fulfill the requirements of Bad Stuff or a Curse/Trap
- The Item is Big and you MUST get rid of it (e.g., because your Hireling died or you are no longer a Dwarf), and there is no one who can take it
