The Pocket Conundrum

[JustJon]

When the weather was colder, I wouldn't leave the house without a jacket. Now that it's warmed up, I stopped wearing a jacket last week and it has left me at a loss... what do I do about the extra pockets it used to afford me?

When commuting, I would bring my keys, cell phone, sunglasses (with case), wireless headset for cell, wallet, gloves (when needed), game boy, and would carry a book to read. Now, I want to bring most of that stuff to work, plus my iPod and I can't figure out where to put it all.

I started bringing my backpack to work, but it's kinda bulky to carry around, and I wouldn't be caught with a "fanny pack" (fag bag).

So what should I do?

it's mind-boggling the things you choose to worry about.

Over the shoulder bags seem to be in style. Maybe a leather briefcase with a shoulder strap, if you want to look professional.

Or, those pants with the extra hip pockets look cool.

Or, you could hire a Shirpa.

holy shit dude i was just thinking about this shit! i wore a t-shirt and swishy pants to work and i can't carry anything. my pockets have so much shit and it's really uncomfortable, plus when i take it out at my desk i feel like i'm going to forget everything cause i'm a pothead.

i think a backpack is the only way to go, they are big and annoying but so is carrying 50 things in my two pockets. i feel your pain man.

I love it when they call me big poppa.
I only smoke blunts if they roll proppa.

How about one of those sticks with a bandana tied to the end? It's worked for Snoopy so it might work for you.

Dude, where the hell do you work? A man should never wear anything swishy.

I'm sure skidmark will loan you a purse, if you ask nicely.

I GOT IT! Instead of buying a "fag bag" or new pants or hiring a Shirpa, just convert a old beer can holder hat into a pocket hat!

I'm telling you, you could patent it and be rich, RICH, RICH, RICH if you pull it off!

Keep it simple: all you need is a .9 mm & a hundred dollar bill to get you through the day.

Only if you have shoes that will match. Fashion should not suffer for function.

Well...I have my unmentionables in there!

That's ok-- I'm sure they're NOT worth mentioning! But I'm willing to bet my next paycheck they're FRILLY.

Sheepy: peer pressure is not the answer!

However I totally agree with those people who said a) leather briefcase or b) metro bag. They're pretty darn cool looking.

And I want one of those vests, not that I have anything to carry around in it but I just like that it flashes and you can see thru it like an x-ray =)

I don't have this problem anymore. I gave up carrying eerything but a roll of half dollars in my front pocket and my life has been a lot better since.

Come on, Sheepy...it's not like you didn't want to.

And I'm with Jon...I carry WAY too much crap to fit into the pockets of a pair of shorts. There's the keys, the wallet, contact lens drops, cigarettes (I know, I know), cell phone, sunglasses, etc.

What is this "metro bag" you all speak of?


<img src=http://gvac.50megs.com/images/tjasig.jpg>

[JustJon]

hmmm... I'll have to look into one of those metro bags. I need somethign with good pockets like that.

I'm not down with the vest. I'd hate it where people could occassionally see through it and know what kinds of porn I'm carrying.

And Sheepy, you did that because you wanted to join the he-man woman hater's club.

[Gvac]

I found the Metro Bags, but I'm still not sure. Are you guys positive I won't look gay carrying one of these?
