Wife Is Mad

edited August 2016 in General Discussion
While walking the other day a guy sitting on his porch insisted we take some of his habanero peppers and salsa.
No being a pepper guy I said thanks, tossed them in my cargo shorts pocket and forgot them.

The wife discovered the minced bits in the dryer full of clean clothes today.

Rewash or die I guess.

    ..My sympathies, but I have to ask...how can you tolerate
    sitting down with either your keys or phone in your back
    pocket? When driving, I even take my wallet out of my pocket,
    but then I have a severely un-padded rump...[:I]

    My wife was pushing me to do this and do that and then my friend wanted me to look at his AC and my front left pocket had my 380 in it. My right pocket had some parts for the pool in it so i put my car keys in the back pocket.

    I never put keys in my back pocket because i keep my phone it it. Well the keys and phone did not mix and the phone lost.[:(]

    699 to replace my phone.

    ..You'll laugh at the tech-phobic old codger, but I just got
    a new phone...a flip phone and it was free...[^] Boost
    Mobile keeps one in stock for people like me.

    Don't worry about the wife being mad ..... it's their natural state. [:D]

    Been there and DONE THAT!

    I was on the line using a blue tooth headset... Talking with my brother.
    When... I yanked up my trousers and plop... Into the toilet it went.
    I made a few verbal exclamations and my brother.. said "What!???"
    Without thinking or skipping a beat...
    I lunged my hand into the bowl and recovered my Motarola Razor from the depths.

    I slung it out best I could and told my brother I had to go.
    With him laughing so hard he probably was rolling on the floor.
    Turned it off and extracted the battery.
    Dried it out the best I could and then used a hair drier.

    Left it off about three days.

    It lasted a full six months and crapped out on a business trip to Virginia.
    About 5 miles down the road, I pulled into an AT&T store and got another one.
    I was back in business.

    I think if I had placed it into a tub of desiccant, it would have kept on getting it.

    It is when they are not mad that you have to be suspicious.[;)]

    I finally started using one of those belt loop clips for my keys.
    I put my phone in my hip pocket as well.
    Front pockets have my wallet and 9mm.

    The ladies there at work all have their phones in their back pocket. The ones with some "junk in the trunk"--I don't know how that phone doesn't snap in half when they sit down. They must make them out of some tough stuff.

    Exactly, these days I just look at her and say "what are you going to do? cut me off?" It doesn't help, but I feel better! [:p]

    This experience is just one of the multitude of reasons I don't have a phart phone. I use a Motorola Quanitico(shock, moisture, and dust resistant),carried in a US military grenade pouch(after losing my older phone when the flimsy pouch disconnected from my belt). This combination is nearly impervious to environmental challenges. That cuts my phone deficiencies down to forgetting to put it in pouch or forgetting to charge it.
    I do carry keys in my back pocket simply due to ease of access but keyring isn't loaded up with 3 dozen keys like some I've seen.

    One of our IT guys traded out an Android that had been damaged on a construction site- screen had been shattered, phone not repairable.

    he now has the coolest support for the kickstand on his bike- with the shattered screen facing up. You should see the doubletakes when people walk by it....

    Phone goes in case on my belt. No way to sit on it. Use case for pistol clip from guy at gun show. Velcro fastener. Cheap. No idea how people keep phone in a pocket without losing it or breaking it.
