What Do You Put in Your Pockets?

It amazes when see woman walking around with their phones sticking out of their back pocket.

Which is funny as I don't think I have EVER seen a boy carry their phone in their back pocket - only girls.

I wonder why that is.

I think it is because they tend to wear pants that are tighter so the front pocket is not an option.

This setup has been the same for 20 years for me now:

  • front left: always a phone
  • front right: wallet.  it might not look the best, but it is safe and practical.  i never liked sitting on my wallet, not because of damaging the wallet, but because you sit all crooked like
  • rear left: nothing or change or paperwork
  • rear right: keys

many of my travel tech pants have a special phone pocket on the rear right, above the normal pocket, it is better for phones then regular pocket, since it is higher up to the waist that you don't sit on it, but even then, i feel like i will damage the phone if I sit in a car like that - and even in normal chairs, I don't like to put extra pressure on the phone.  makes no sense to me, and i have seen people damage phones like that

 

My phone is in an empty wallet holder thing.

 

I phoned the emergency services from my pocket once and I don't want that to happen again.

 

EDIT: Rest are keys, wallet and a small multi-tool.

 

All of which are in front pockets. I may have at most a few spare coins in a back pocket but nothing else. I don't like the idea of sitting on stuff.

Are you not concerned about the wallet getting lifted when it's in the rear?

No.  My slacks have a flap with a button or Velcro.

When I wear jeans, I slide the wallet in sideways, makes it harder to steal.

Right Front - keys

Left Front - spare cash, receipts

Left Rear - wallet

Right Rear - phone

 

I live in a very rural area and pretty much know everyone in every store I go in so Im not worried about someone lifting my phone or wallet.

Am I the only person who puts his phone in his back right pocket?

Aren't you afraid of breaking your phone? And for those who put the wallet in the back, it's not good long term for back pain & easier target for pick pocket.

My butt is soft enough to provide proper cushioning, I remove it when I sit down. It's the only place where I don't really feel it. And I live in a small town, no pick pockets here.

Who would be stupid enough to try and steal a dino's wallet? :D

    • Microsoft released new Defender update for Windows 11, 10, Server ISO installations by Sayan Sen Microsoft releases new Windows Defender update packages very frequently to protect against various newly discovered malware. Once a while every three months or so, the company also pushes out these updates to Windows images (WIM and VHD) and ISOs, that are used to install Windows. Hence with the newest Windows 11 update available via the official MCT tool, you should get these definitions. This update package is necessary as a Windows installation image may contain old, outdated anti-malware definitions and software binaries. Aside from better security, these updates can also provide improved performance benefits in some cases. When a new Windows installation is set up, there may be a temporary security risk due to outdated Microsoft Defender protection in the OS installation images. This happens because the antimalware software included in these images might not be up to date. Thus Microsoft says that these updated definitions essentially help close this protection gap. Microsoft delivered the latest security definitions for Windows images via security intelligence update version 1.445.323.0. The Defender package version is also the same. It applies to Windows 11, Windows 10 ESU, Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021, Win 10 Ent LTSC 2019, Win 10 Ent LTSB 2016, Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2019, and Windows Server 2016. Microsoft writes: "This package updates the anti-malware client, anti-malware engine, and signature versions in the OS installation images to following versions: Platform version: 4.18.26040.7 Engine version: 1.1.26040.8 Security intelligence version: 1.447.236.0" From Microsoft's security bulletin, we learn that the security intelligence update version 1.447.236.0 was released early last month and adds threat detections for various malware like trojan, backdoor exploits, ransomware, stealers, AutoKMS, and more. For those wondering, the latest intelligence update is version 1.451.297.0 at the time of writing.
    • Hello, Hope all is well. I am in UK.  
    • I'm not happy with myself for it, but I've gone and got hold of it. Just another 45 minutes and I'll be Bond, James Bond. In my defence, IO's Hitman series is awesome, and I'm a sucker for 007. So while it might seem a bit simplified compared to Hitman, I'm sure I'll be right at home.
    • Or just check the script yourself ^^. I hate having a Microsoft account tied to my windows install.
