Now this is a list I can get behind

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

Surely rear middle should be lube.

Nice try, pickpocket

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 1 month 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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

I clip my work knife in my back pocket that is on the far side distal. It's in a good spot that doesn't interfere with sitting.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

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 swear there existed a Tumblr post back in 2012 or earlier about remembering something like EGG: wallet, phone, keys. I just can't find it anymore v.v

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month 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.

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 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

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

Front right: sometimes phone, if at work nothing as I put my phone in my jacket breast zip as I'm a stone mason and I really don't want to smash my phone...
Back pockets: nothing, sometimes my travel mug if I'm not wearing my work jacket.
Work trousers cargo pocket: tobacco/vape

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Why not combine your car keys with your house keys so you can't drive off without them?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

I do, when I'm not at work. The car key has one of those little clips on, so when I'm at work the car key either goes in my left pocket if I'm not going to need my work keys, or gets clipped on my work keys. When I'm out on a weekend the car key gets clipped on the house keys

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Back left is typically where I collect receipts without realizing it. I also have a pen pocket by my right knee which always has a pen

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Front right - phone Front left -keys, hanky, lip balm Wallet goes back right

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Phone in left front pocket, keys in right front pocket. Nothing else, that's all I need if I'm just stepping out. I have several hobbies though, and I have a separate backpack/bag for each one, loaded and ready to go.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Phone and Headphones in front left, Wallet and keys in front right.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month 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 1 month ago

Front left: phone, wallet, headphones (if it's cold and I'm wearing a jacket headphones go in the left pocket of that) Front right: keys Back: nothing

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I use Google tap to pay on my phone, my front door has a code, and I walo to work so I don't need a car key.

All I take with me is my phone and my work ID badge.
