WTF, dude, get out of my pocket!
I am pretty sure I cannot fit a whole dude in my pocket.
This is much more wholesome than what I was thinking.
That’s what you think. This is the fly on his boxer shorts.
It’s replaced by an AI chatbot now
Grindr exists, you know.
I know it’s called Grindr, but that’s not the kind of grinding it refers to.
Not trying hard enough
I try to fit a whole person in my pants every day. They only fit about half the guy, tho. 😔
Pockets have come a long way
was at a flea market, there was a machete, i jockingly called it a pocket knife, because it fits in a pocket,
put it in my pocket, it fit.
felt bad for my daughter’s who will likely never get proper pockets.
who do I need to hack with my pocket knife for them to get normal pockets?
Buy ‘em pants from the boys’ section
Wait… My phone can play cassettes and cd’s? Freaking awesome!
Yes… after you rip them into a
mixtapeplaylist.
I dont have a human being inside my pocket.
Hello, I’m the human in your pocket.
You can make video phone calls with people.
You are my tiny dancer.
How big are your pockets?
Even ignoring the joke with the dude fitting into your pocket, I cannot fit full over-ear cans I to my pocket… This is just lies.
IEM’s my rizza. Also Koss Porta Pros.

When I was young, I had a bucket list of all the fun gadgets I wanted - a camera, a video camera, a nice stereo system, a portable stereo system, a car stereo, lots of records, a TV, a VCR, a computer, etc. Making a Christmas list was easy, even if I knew I would never get 99% of it.
Now I get asked what I want for Christmas, and I have no idea what to say. My phone includes nearly everything I’ve ever wanted, including stuff I never thought of. Give me my phone, my guitar, a sandwich, and a bottle of water, and I’m pretty much set for life.
Nowdays you can ask for a subscription, you are not allowed to own good things sadly
Cool things to ask for for Christmas:
-
Socks: I wear tall boots & long pants for work, so no one knows about my Deadpool/Pokemon/flying taco socks, but it puts a smile on my face. My sister got me a pair of socks with a sad sock sitting on the stairs that say “worst gift ever.” I cried laughing.
-
Hobby accessories: You have your guitar, straps, strings, and picks are all perishable items that it’s good to have a backup for.
-
Shared experiences: ask for a group trip, a local excursion, or a board game to play together.
-
My favorite - the themed surprise: instead of asking for a specific thing ask for “Something to make me laugh” or “Something nostalgic” or “Something I’ll use daily” or “Your favorite recipe and the ingredients to make it”. This makes shopping for / creating the gift as much fun as receiving it, since everyone will interpret the instructions a little differently and the possibilities are endless. This one’s fun for a themed gift exchange for a secret Santa as well.
Good suggestions. They actually like to get me little guitar stuff, or music books, I just have to steer it to them, so I put it all into an Amazon list. This year, I’m going to direct them to Stillwater, and give Amazon less business.

Missing:
- A game console
- All the maps in the world + compass
- Gigantic notepad
- Calendar
- Entire stack of catalogs
- Newspapers
- Thermostat
- A whole fucking supercomputer
- An entire building-sized stack of photo albums
- Flashlight
- An sycophant assistant who makes shit up just to keep you happy.
A software synthesizer and tracker.
The OP photo is missing an Amiga 1200.
An sycophant assistant who makes shit up just to keep you happy.
Who says that man doesn’t carry out that function?
A humongous calendar in fact. the one that fits a century
Don’t forget about fidget apps, so throw in some bubble wrap too.
nah, the speakers from that boombox are not in my pocket.
The single CD amongst all that analog media seems so much like an anachronism that I had to look it up. The CD standard was published in 1980 and it was commercially available in the US in 1983 but it took until 1992 for CD sales to surpass cassette tape sales.
Same thing with blurays and UHD now, DVDs still ahead
how big are your damn pockets?
You cannot fit three sets of headphones in your pocket without them fucking up your phone or your wallet.
You absolutely positively 100% cannot fit a VHS player inside your pocket.
VHS tapes got so small they turned into little bits
I wish that were true, but I’ve got a stack of home movies that say differently.
And a boom box. Sure, phones can play music, but not at the same volume or quality as a dedicated stereo system (quality meaning the frequency response, phones just physically can’t get the low end without a separate speaker)
You could probably find a pocket sized bluetooth speaker today that outperforms that particular boombox. I’ve got one about the size of a hardback novel that puts out more volume and bass than my car does.
Which speaker is that? I’ve been sort of on the lookout for a good compact speaker for a while
I’m not exactly sure since I got it for $5 at a thrift store. It says AOMAIS on the front and has a built in carry handle so that might help you track it down.
That’s a good thing. You don’t remember guys walking down the street, or getting on the subway, carrying a boom box on their shoulder, loudly blasting distorted music you don’t care to hear.
Now they just pump it directly into their ears. Let them destroy their own hearing, not everyone else’s. They make Bluetooth speakers if you need to broadcast your music to a group.
Ha, no, now they just get in the subways with big Bluetooth speakers and annoy people with that. Boom boxes phasing out didn’t stop people from being obnoxious if they want to
I thought so too but remembered yesterday I was working at an office they were putting back together after remodeling, and noticed they were playing music off an iPhone and it was surprisingly loud.
My double standard is that when I see someone with a boombox playing music in public, I’m chill and open to it. When someone does the same thing on their phone, I must work to enhance my calm.
Is it the sound quality? Maybe in part. But there’s more to it.
Maybe it’s that a boombox playing music is more social and open, whereas what someone does with their phone is typically meant to be private, but some people play their music or w/e noise out loud from it as if only they can hear their phone and you’re just supposed to pretend they aren’t overstepping boundaries.
I think it’s a mindset thing. A boombox means you’re thinking about an audience. Consideration is implicit.
I hate when people have boomboxes too
It’s always on public transit. Like that’s how some people prepare to go out and face the world, by making everyone else listen to their music. Like that’s the best way you can come up with to express yourself?
Me, from the the future, explaining this meme to people in 1987: We developed new textiles that support giant pockets with incredible durability.
