Now this is a list I can get behind

Don’t get too excited; he’s left-handed.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Surely rear middle should be lube.

Apparently, pickpockets sometimes put up signs earning of pickpockets, because it causes people to check their pockets for valuable items, showing which pockets they are in

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 months ago (3 children)

How do you people sit with anything in a back pocket

Also how do you people keep shit in the same pocket? Hell usually everything ends up in the opposite pocket I first put it in anyway

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

Yeah it's uncomfortable as hell to sit with anything in back pockets. I've actually utilized this at work. My customers often have me sign out contractor keys that I must return before leaving. Keeping them in a back pocket prevents me from driving away with them. I'll know as soon as I sit down if I didn't return them

Im surprised by the number of people who keep their phones in their front left pockets.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

Yeah, right it is ofc.

Fucking, uh, keys and a wad of cash. Oh and phone i guess. I kinda stuff them wherever depending on what i'm wearing, i don't have that many pockets so i don't fumble for them that much. This one pair of jeans has a hole in the pocket, i don't remember which one, but basically can't put coins in that. Um. Yeah

I’m pretty much the same but I carry my RPG in my back left for quick access.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Your belt must be strong AF.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Jeans are stronger than fur suits.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'm an American furry. My fursuit is woven with kevlar and has trauma plates inside.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I thought they all had some trauma inside.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It is possible to be a well-adjusted furry. It's rare, but it is possible.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I don’t think I’ve ever met a well-adjusted person, just different degrees of masking.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Maybe you should join the furry community then, since they apparently have well-adjusted people. Granted, not very many of them, but that's still more than the non-furries have.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

They mask too, and some of the masks are really hot.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Front left: phone, small bills, crow-calling whistle
Front right: keys, multitool, tin of peanuts
Back right: wallet
Back left: spare change, spare mask, small magnet

These are all in cargo pants but default is phone front left; small wallet (leather card holder with a zip pocket with a tile in it) front right; keys back zip pocket, but recently I was in another country and did water bottle front top left; phone, large wallet due to cash & book front top left; travelcard and hotel key back zip pocket, passport & 120Ah portable charger front bottom right, coins front bottom right which surprisingly felt just fine so maybe I'm ready to become a suburban dad

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (8 children)

Im not wild about stuff in my pockets so I switched to a bandolier. Also nice to not have to swap things over as you swap pants.

Phone right, keys left. Don't need a wallet cuz I just pay with my phone.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Front right: phone. Maybe keys if what I'm wearing doesn't have damn belt loops.

Front left: wallet and earbud case. Maybe a pair of sunglasses if I forget that I can can just tuck em into my shirt collar since I'm a dumbass.

Back pockets: nothin' because I'm not my dad nor a pyschopath.

Bonus: If I'm wearing pajamas with no pockets then I guess it's all going in my elastic band / undies.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Front right: Wallet. Always there, even when I sleep.

Edit for front right, I also keep minimal keys there.

Front left: Phone.

Rear right: Multitool.

Rear left: Smokes and lighter.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Front right - small wallet, minimal key set. Front left - phone.

My wallet only holds 4 cards (id, driver's licence, health insurance, debit card), sometimes cash (notes, no coins). I just take a couple of keys, for home and office, plus a Darth Vader Lego keychain.

I vape, and I usually just hold that...

If it's jacket (or hoodie) weather, I keep my vape and keys in a jacket pocket.

When I go to the office, I have my backpack, and I transfer everything in there, except the wallet and phone.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Front right pocket: car fob; key ring with house keys, padlock keys, Yubikey, small folding knife

Front left pocket: wallet; flashlight

Right leg pocket 1: personal phone

Right leg pocket 2: pack of gum; loops

Left leg pocket 1: work phone

Left leg pocket 2: Thinket

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Jeez everyone carries a lot of shit in their pockets.

I carry my bank card in a side pocket down by my right knee and occasionally keys in the front left pocket.
