Actually Pocket Watch. But the glorious leader Jim Pickens is fine too, I guess.

I never saw a pocket watch so small to fit in that micropocket.

The pockets have gotten smaller as people stopped using them for watches. Kept out of tradition, and for whatever one might use them for today.

That said, there are plenty of pocket watches made today that are around 45mm across. That size will fit easily in the watch pocket I have on my jeans at the moment.

I store drugs in mine.

It's a tragedy that the advent of smartphones with big screens made cellphones start getting bigger again right before they shrunk small enough to fit in the pocket watch pocket.

[–] tomiant@piefed.social 3 points 3 weeks ago

How fucking tiny is your pocket watch? Also, you have a fucking pocket watch??

[–] Anosyn@feddit.org 2 points 3 weeks ago

The dear leader will always have a special place in my pants.

its drugs. always been for drugs.

I think over the course of the history of jeans, the pocket went from being for pocket watches, to coins (for payphones) to drugs.

true story;

im comin back through customs in the bahamas to get on plane the the unites states. i am drunk and stoned out of my gord because we decided to 'get rid of everything' before we headed for home..

so i get in line and the armed customs officer looks my drunk ass up and down, pats me down.. lifts up my shirt and sticks his finger in the little 5th pocket of my jeans..... and pulls out a tiny baggie. you know, the little mini ziplock baggies.

i just about shit my freakin pants right there wracking my brain for what the fuck i bought that would be in that baggie.

computer screws... specifically a set of screws for a hard drive install. you got me officer, is nerd.

[–] Quetzalcutlass@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

I hope you thanked him. Those screws, like all hard drive screws you take your eyes off of for more than thirty seconds, would have vanished forever otherwise.

My keys fit in there perfectly

I have this book. S-tier. I'm giving it to my kid when he can read and use it as an educational source. (Not actually, but when they're old enough to know it's all a joke, maybe they can read it).

[–] grue@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

Ah, that explains it: he's making up for all the fingers he's not allowed to draw in his day job.

[–] ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Put some be damn clothes on, Kevin!

[–] synae@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 3 weeks ago

He's wearing jeans 🤔

[–] abbadon420@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I love Kevin. He can pleasure me in ways noone else can.

[–] tomiant@piefed.social 2 points 3 weeks ago

You know it's not AI because he has seven fingers, while AI can only make six.
