Im not wild about stuff in my pockets so I switched to a bandolier. Also nice to not have to swap things over as you swap pants.

Me too. I've got several "purses". Can't stand much in my pockets.
the bandolier itself does not even have its own pockets. it has a metal ring and I have a zip up wallet on a carbiner. I basically have a bunch of stuff on carbiners.
Front right is keys and wallet. Front left is phone and a Leatherman.
Nothing in the back because of issues putting things there.
These are all in cargo pants but default is phone front left; small wallet (leather card holder with a zip pocket with a tile in it) front right; keys back zip pocket, but recently I was in another country and did water bottle front top left; phone, large wallet due to cash & book front top left; travelcard and hotel key back zip pocket, passport & 120Ah portable charger front bottom right, coins front bottom right which surprisingly felt just fine so maybe I'm ready to become a suburban dad
Nice try, pickpocket
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
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
My folding boxcutter has a belt clip and I hang my Gerber Dime on a suspension clip. Both live at the top of my rear pockets. I never sit on them.
OG Dessert Eagle, MP5 modded Iron sight, Karambit, 1 frag, 2 multi flash bang.
Found the counter strike player
I wasn't sure at first. Might have been real life.
Tell me your from America without telling me you're from America
Can I interest you with some witness protection instead?
Fucking, uh, keys and a wad of cash. Oh and phone i guess. I kinda stuff them wherever depending on what i'm wearing, i don't have that many pockets so i don't fumble for them that much. This one pair of jeans has a hole in the pocket, i don't remember which one, but basically can't put coins in that. Um. Yeah
Uh, username doesn't check out?? I suppose you could have thawed long ago and had time to adjust to modern life and aquire many pants
Jk I love how you can write like you've been put on the spot and need to answer quickly
Man i've have dozens of usernames spanning 15 years but i ALWAYS get comments about my username being funny lmao
Yeah, the key is to add "umm" and "uhh" here and there. Makes it conversational

You should itemize what they have you hold and track the data over their childhood so you can show them what they were into

Phone in front right, wallet and keys in front left. When I'm not at work, that's basically it.
I wear a small satchel at work; I keep a water bottle, clipboard, and notepad in the main storage compartment. My satchel has a few side pockets as well; one holds my pens and markers, the second holds a box cutter and a pair of gloves, and the last one holds a small first-aid kit.

My wallet only holds 4 cards (id, driver's licence, health insurance, debit card), sometimes cash (notes, no coins). I just take a couple of keys, for home and office, plus a Darth Vader Lego keychain.
I vape, and I usually just hold that...
If it's jacket (or hoodie) weather, I keep my vape and keys in a jacket pocket.
When I go to the office, I have my backpack, and I transfer everything in there, except the wallet and phone.

Back pockets: nothing, sometimes my travel mug if I'm not wearing my work jacket.

Why not combine your car keys with your house keys so you can't drive off without them?
I do, when I'm not at work. The car key has one of those little clips on, so when I'm at work the car key either goes in my left pocket if I'm not going to need my work keys, or gets clipped on my work keys. When I'm out on a weekend the car key gets clipped on the house keys
