What do you keep in your pockets?

Left front: Comb, keys, pens, pocketknife (when not at school)

Right front: The inevitable ChapStic and asthma meds

Right back: Wallet

Left back: nuthin’

If wearing a coat, I may carry around Altoids, a pocket calculator,or even a felt security blanket (joke from Physics class.)

Left Front:
Keys
Tissue 'O the Day
Key card
Chapstick
Tiny Post-It Notes
Change (optional)

Right Front:
Cell Phone (on vibrate)

Back Right:
Wallet

Back Left:
Nada

All I keep in my pockets is some change and wadded up bills. Then on laundry day I get a pleasant surprise.

Does anyone else hear Golem speaking the OP title?
“what does iiittt have in its pocketeseses?”

I always, always, ALWAYS have ChapStick in my left front pocket. I don’t think I own any pants w/o pockets, and I even have a couple of skirts with pockets.

The right front pocket is not so strict – usually a couple of bucks, and often my staff ID card, which also lets me buy things here on campus. Kleenex will also go in there during cold or allergy season (which appears to be year-round for me!). When I’m wearing pants with back pockets, the ID card will go in the back left pocket, with maybe a business card or two, and other miscellaneous flat things. Keys only go in my pocket if absolutely necessary, which is almost never since I usually have my purse nearby. The purse holds everything else, which is about 5 pounds’ worth of stuff. :rolleyes:

OK, this is gonna get complicated, so hang tight:

Right slash coat pocket: Keys, sometimes a pen, other random things (mints, condoms, what have you.)

Right flap coat pocket: My little notebook to write just about anything in.

Left slash coat pocket: Wallet

Left flap coat pocket: Usually nothing, so some random crap does fin it’s way into there from time to time.

Left breast coat pocket: A “National Engineers Week 2000” button, a word of magnetic poetry on the button (“you”,) and one of those mini binder-clips. This pocket is strictly sentimental crap.

Right front pants pocket: Mechanical pencil, pen, eraser, chapstick

Left front pants pocket: Any loose bills or change I might have…I usually don’t have any, though.

Nothing goes in my back pockets, feels too uncomfortable.

Left front: Keys, pen, pencil, other assorted writing utensils.

Right front: Handspring Visor in leather case, Driver’s license in Handspring’s case, currency, coinage, candy/gum/mints.

Right rear: nothing.

Left rear: Nothing since I lost my wallet nearly three months ago.

That’s pretty much it. My right front has been pretty much taking over for my wallet, what with the driver’s license and the money.

It depends. Keys go in right front pocket, and generally everything else is in my purse.

The exception is when I travel, or go out to a place where my purse, or it’s contents, are more likely to disappear, i.e. I know I’ll be walking back to bart through downtown San Francisco at night alone, or I’m at a club with people bumping into me.

In those cases I still carry the purse but move enough cash to get me home and my cell phone (it’s teeny) into my left front pocket. That way if my bag gets grabbed/picked, I’m not completely screwed.
