A poll: What's in your pockets right now?

In My Humble Opinion
1

Inspired by this thread about pocket knives and strange desire to say “What’s in your pocketses”, I’m curious, what’s in your pockets right now.

I suspect the men on the group will have a more diverse list as women tend to stash in their purses.

Currently, I have:
A ring of keys (11)
wind-up pocket watch
Two receipts
My work “badge”
An anti-static wrist strap
My wallet (still no thinner)
A Leatherman Micra tethered to a maglight Solitaire
A large supply of pocket lint (with a tip-of-the-hat to Douglas Adams)

Not fair! Not fair to ask what we’ve got in our nasssty littttle pocketses!
(My answer: nothing except my wallet in my back pocket.)

I was wondering how long it would take to get the Hobbit quote - not surprised it was the first.

Me, since I am female, only have my work badge - and technically it isn’t in my pocket this very instant, but will be in two seconds.

Other than lint, noting.

I don’t know, but it sure is happy to see you.

Left front pocket:
A 5, three 1’s, a dime and two pennies. (this is a good day, usually the total is a smattering of change.) Oh, there is also a purple post-it note with some numbers scribbled on it.

Main Right front pocket: Levi’s
A nickel, (must decide on consolidatating my savings. Should I transfer balance of RFP to LFP, or remain diversified as a hedge against potential hole-in-pocket losses) a leatherman micra, a buckeye, my keys, Blistex.

Little Right front pocket: Levi’s
The retractor mechanism for my work ID. My ID is on a line, that is attached to a spring loaded device, that retracts with the press of a button. The mechanism is in the otherwise useless little pocket.

Left rear pocket:
A pay-stub from a couple of paychecks ago. I just discovered it today, buried under some stuff on my desk.

Right rear pocket:
Wallet and my ID badge

Shirt pocket:
A couple of pens. Both black.

Chapstick in left hip, work ID card in back left. If I had any cash, it would be in right hip, but that pocket, alas, is empty.

9

my wallet
a pack of cigarettes and a lighter
my keys (2 office, 1 house, 2 car, 3 work keys of various doors)
$2.67, mostly change
a pen
a sticky note with my MRI appointment written on it
my cell phone

Good lord. I wonder how I walk sometimes.

Left front: keys and pocketknife
Right front: endorsed check (that I still need to deposit at an ATM), old beat-up money clip and $15.06
Left rear: CTA card
Right rear: wallet (old, beat up, comfortable), comb

11

A cigarette
A lighter
A dollar
Some change
A receipt

I’m female…this is just my walkin’-around gear whilst in the office. The true horror lies in that black-hole I call a purse.

12

Right now? Lint. :slight_smile:

13

Right rear - wallet
Right front - keycard, albuterol inhaler, keyring (5 keys, 2 auto entries)

When I put them back in, I think I’ll even them out a little to keep from leaning even farther to the right!

14

Right pocket: keys
Left pocket: Pocket knife, Really cool, I got it from Santa! Pretty big, you can open and close it with one hand.
Right rear: wallet.
Shirt pocket: pocket calendar/address book

15

Left front: Large Wallet (full of junk, not money), Work Badge.

Right front: Swiss Army Knife, ring of many keys.

Back pockets always empty.

16

RF: handful of change
RB: wallet
LB: zip
LF: fingernal clipper in a small leather case that I’ve carried around forever, a Buck 425+ locking knife 1.5" blade, and a 256MB USB mem stick. (What are we to call these things? It’s not a ‘drive’ as I’ve seen somewhere, and Memory Stick is a Sony device.

That is all.

Normally far more, but these are my “I just woke up and grabbed something from the dirty clothes pile” pants.
