I really thought this was about deadlock for a moment

[–] Ibaudia@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Same, was about to say "Extra Burst, Escalating Exposure..."

[–] Xenny@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Escalating exposure on pocket? I usually full gun build him.

[–] AdamBomb@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Front left: phone

Front right: UltraTac k18 flashlight, Leatherman Style PS, space pen (it collapses to half length), keys

Pocket knife clipped inside my waistband, front right crotch. Easy to draw, clip won’t scratch or gouge anything.

Nothing in back pockets for comfort

Those get carried full time in house and out. I carry a small shoulder sling or waist pouch for wallet and other sundries when going out.

[–] Creeoyfred@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Front left- Leatherman surge, zippo, random fidgety thing. Front right - pen, flashlight, moneyclip Back left- phone Back right - folded bandana, keys clipped to belt loop tucked in.

It's alot but I'm naked if I leave something behind.

[–] carvine1@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago (3 children)

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

[–] Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I've got an excuse, I'm a lefty 😄

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Yeah, right it is ofc.

[–] neomachino@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I've never thought about it but I keep my phone in my left pocket. It stays on dnd most of the time and I hardly use it especially when I'm out. The right pocket it for the stuff I'm likely to pull out and use.

[–] Case@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 1 day ago

Front Right: Keys, wireless earbuds, active nicotine packet container.

Front Left: Eckster Wallet, spare nicotine packet container, phone.

Back Right and Left: Utility Spots, used as needed.

Right Pocket Watch Pocket: CRKT CEO knife, if off the clock, THCa pen (legal in my area)

[–] Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 day ago

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

[–] Crozekiel@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

Is anyone else hearing that Adam Sandler song "phone, wallet, keys" right now?

[–] Stonewyvvern@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Front left: cigarettes and lighter

Front right: Keys, handkerchief

Back left: phone

Back right: wallet

Leg left side: 10 in 1 screwdriver

Right leg side: ballpoint pen, sharpie, white marker, mini vise-grips.

[–] rob_t_firefly@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Front pockets: phone and wallet.

Back pockets: keys (connected by chain to the wallet), a folded bandana/hanky, and a spare dollar or two not kept in my wallet. In my urban environment butt-dollars are important for tip jars, street performers, panhandlers, vending machines, or other cash-based occasions at which I'd rather not whip out my whole wallet.

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

[–] PhoreTwunny@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Front right is phone, front left is wallet. Keys hang on left side belt loop. Vape in left side pocket, knife in right side. I have magnetic sunglasses that I put in the back right pocket when I'm not using them. Back left is for receipts & such.

[–] Brkdncr@lemmy.world 28 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (3 children)

Surely rear middle should be lube.

Front left: dog treats. Who's a good boy?

Front Right: phone.

Front Right inner pocket: earbuds.

Back: empty. Anything in them gets squished or pokes my ass when I sit down.

Jacket left: wallet. Still hauling around a leather one like a cave man.

Jacket right: keys.

[–] peopleproblems@lemmy.world 18 points 2 days 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

[–] Pilferjinx@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day 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.

[–] Hikermick@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days 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

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

[–] tiredofsametab@fedia.io 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Front left: phone

front right: wallet + hand towel

keys are clipped to belt loop and also generally tucked into back right.

[–] vovo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

omg they pick you up with a hand towel? I carried my beach towel my whole life.

[–] tiredofsametab@fedia.io 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I live in a humid subtropical climate. That hand towel does a lot of sweat wiping. Also hand drying after washing hands more rarely in public toilets with no towels/dryer

[–] vovo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

A towel, it says, is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have.

A towel has immense psychological value. For some reason, if a strag (strag: non-hitch hiker) discovers that a hitch hiker has his towel with him, he will automatically assume that he is also in possession of a toothbrush, face flannel, soap, tin of biscuits, flask, compass, map, ball of string, gnat spray, wet weather gear, space suit etc., etc.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Your belt must be strong AF.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Jeans are stronger than fur suits.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I thought they all had some trauma inside.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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

[–] Jolteon@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days 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.

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

[–] Silentiea@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Back right: half of my phone (unless I'm carrying my purse)

Purse: pencil, pen, journal (X2), book I'm reading, pocket mirror/makeup pouch, sunglasses case, portable battery, cloth mask, house keys, car keys, mini flashlight, Bluetooth headphones, wallet, phone

[–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

Front left: Phone Front right: KNIFE, wallet, change (if any)

[–] m4xie@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days 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.
