What ye got in yer pockets?

Pocari Sweat

After checking my phone for useless listings, I checked my pockets and found a load of crap.

I found keys I can't match to locks, shrapnel I can't seem to get rid of, pay.go moby credits I can't remember whether credited, screws, nails, business cards and a bookmakers pen. (don't know how that got there?

What you got? Make a list.

Karoma

Nothing. I'm just aroused by your big, wonderful post.

Kinetic^

My hand.

Waltons

Another pocket.
Oh god, it never ends!

biko

Money, keys and a big suprise for yooooou

Dooom

Think how horrible it'd be to have no pockets. Ever like. You'd have to carry everything around in a bag or in your hands.
That'd be hell if I ever heard it.

Maybe if there were no pockets we'd all evolve and grow a bunch of extra hands to carry stuff in? Or we'd all just get really fat so we could lodge things amongst the folds.

Receipts, a couple of coins, enemies list.

In the absence of pockets - I give thee my junk-bag. Various bank lodgement books, lotto ticket for my big win on Saturday, several receipts from various shops, Supervalu, Dunne stores, Londis... a couple of pre-paid car washes. My purse. Blush, eye-liner, lip-gloss... Zirtec, Tramil... Had my mobile till today.

Pocari Sweat

Ruu, surely not, why would you bother?

I shove my receipts straight in the bin.

Suaimhneach

I have no pockets.

In my handbag: Phone, keys, wallet, perfume, date book, pen, calculator, digital camera.

I dont usually have the calculator or camera, but I had an exam today and then a house viewing and I wanted to show a mate the pics... which I didnt take in the end....

Anyway... surely you empty your pockets whenever you change your trousers like most blokes, which stops the collection of... shrapnel and screws?

mloc

the big three: phone wallet keys - the three things i always check i still have if im getting out of a taxi or getting off a bus!

also probably a tissue or two, maybe a bus ticket on occasion, but anything other than those three usually is just there on its way to the bin.

digital camera if im going out.

Ruu_Old

They need to be shredded later (the receipts), those thieves rooting through the bins the other morning.

Pighead

Pighead has a hole in each pocket. These trousers are my favourites. I call them my Know Your Nerds Trousers or if I'm feeling lazy my KYNT'S.

Pocari Sweat

I was looking for me key to get in the house this evening, and the feckers gone!

Never happened before. Had to drill the lock off.

Don't worry about the key now, the lock is fecked.

Ask me again during the day when I'm wearing a jacket and trousers.

At this time of the night I'm in my kimono and it doesn't have any pockets.... I could tell you what's in nature's pocket... but lets not go there.

Tramil is for headaches. Your thinking of Senekot, which is for constipation.

My pockets: Phone, Wallet, Car keys. Occasionally spare change and receipts.

I had to digitise my enemies list, far too bulky otherwise.

Victor

Keys on chain, 2 phones, wallet, camera in case with new USB cable, lockets, 2 inhalers, bus tickets, notes.

I also have a half pack of fig rolls, but they won't fit in my pockets.

The B Man - aren't Tramil for headaches? Maybe its different in Carlow...

My pockets/bag = Hairclips,a hairbobbin, chewing gum, spare change, LIPBALM, neurofen plus, phone, digi camera (on occasion), some makeup usually and deodrant, perfume, pen and notepad.

Jesus thats a lot. Damn its hard lugging it around all day.

Black Swan

Nothing. In a T and shorts, in my flat in OC/So Cal near the beach enjoying the night breeze.

Archeron

Aah, fairly typical here. Keys, wallet, phone, a dead magpie in case I see only one somewhere and it threatens me with bad luck, a human finger, and an amulet that stops time. Nothing out of the ordinary.

Class

Just a wallet in my pocket...the jeans I put on this morning are a bit small for me (waist 30") so if I put anything else in there I'm afraid the pants will just tear in half

spoofilyj

My pockets work on the Macgyver principle.
Other then the usuail stuff like wallet & phone.
I have a swiss army knife, a small roll of duct tape, ciggies, a lighter & matches. (just in case)
Some chewing gum, a packet of polos, neurifin plus.
I have a terry pratchet book 4 elastic bands, some string, seven small screws (how?)
I really need to stop carrying arount all this stuff but I always feel you never know when I'll need it.

I am going with the immodium option, since he was suggesting s/he had the scutters. Either way, he is wrong!

Generally I have phone/wallet/keys + optional(iPod/DS/Digital phone), spread out amongst my pockets in jacket and jeans. When I am heading to work I bring in a little timberland man-sac(!) which includes ; 2 chicken breasts, 2 tuna sandwichs, banana, apple, liter bottle of water and work ID.

I am surprised by the lack of personal music players.

A "So what have you got in your man-bag/jacket thread" isn't quite as catchy

Smellyirishman

Well pockets would be inclusive of the pockets on your jacket surly.

Also, it's not a man-bag! It goes on my back as oppossed to one strap hanging at my side type dealy. Plus it's Timberland damn it, and that must save some man points! It could be considered one big pocket too I guess (there are no extra compartments, ZERO!).

TerrorFirmer

Timber...what now?

For some reason when I read pockets I automatically associated with my trousers pockets. In this case, I can add to my inventory:


A nokia pop port headset
a few specks of dust
a bit of paper
5 cent

Formidable eh?

Why don't you reach down in my pocket and see what it is
Then grab onto it, it's just for you
Give a little squeeze and say, "How do you do?"

connundrum

All my pockets are bulging all the time, it looks really stupid when I have slacks on

Wallet, phone (used to carry the 2 phones), house keys & car keys, change, bus ticket
