Females and the Bank Machine:

Quote by: Muser But...but...where would females keep their tampons? That reason alone makes a purse a necessity.

make them into ear rings.

If male "purses" were socially acceptable, would we see more males carrying them? Possibly...isn't a briefcase (in some respects) a male purse? And then there are backpacks that no campus male would be without - and it's not just books they're carrying in there.

Well the only time I use a suit case is to pack my limited supply of outfits. A man purse doesn't exist because I think way back when they first tried that out, men used them as weapons, like loading them with old English bricks and swinging like a mace.

Backpacks I use for hiking, never had more then one binder in college, so I didn't need it for school... high school is a nessecity for all the pile of books, binder size requirements per class, and all the piles of useless homework they issue each day.

Frig doctors found that these backpacks so stuffed cause some long term back issues, esspecially when carried over one shoulder.

Unless the war'sa coming and I gotta setup in the forest, I have no need for a backpack for the moment.

With all this time to prepare before a worst case scenario, you might come up with a better idea, like a wagon outfitted with some oversize tires, or a nice drag board in the Winter.

Naw.... Unless I got some horses stolen from a farm or a donkey, I ain't pulling a pile of garbage with me.... and besides that'd just slow me down as well as make me a bigger target for bandits and stray humans who escaped the nuclear holocaust who want to kill me for my supplies.

The less I carry, the easier it is to defend and possibly flee into the forest quicker if outnumbered. And with a nuclear winter, one will certainly have to conserve their energy.

Hehehe, obviously you are under the impression that it is physically possible to carry enough ammunition.


When you do actually aquire "enough ammunition", camp is where ever you happen to be at the moment.

My mom has a good idea, she has one of those 5 gallon bins you can get at Home Depot for $6. She puts that in the trunk of her car, and that's where she keeps car tool, writing impliments, etc...

Quote by: Maryjane And why would I take checks out of the check book? That's why I carry a purse, silly! Besides didn't anyone ever tell you, men may control the TV remote, but women control the checkbook. (you'll find out when you get married)

Already did with the ex, and she did a piss poor job Now I finally have everything back on track for the most part. That ain't happening again

The sharpie I used at work to label and date food. I got tired having to borrow someone else's and the place was too cheap to buy more than one so I bought my own and kept it on my purse. I carry three pens for the same reason. I have an extra lighter because people don't always return things they borrow. The second lighter isn't mine

Ah, see that's why when someone asks me, I pass it to them, they light up, and I have my hand out to get it back right away. I lost too many lighters that way, and almost became homeless

Remember the smokes? Contrary to what the makeup ads want you to believe, there is no such thing as long wearing lipstick. You have to reapply. I read on Askmen.com that most guys love watching a woman put on lipstick.... maybe they just meant American men?

A yes, "lipstick butt attachment syndrome" I've seen this on some butts on the ground at times.... slipped my mind.

Well I certainly don't need to have everything I own or need to posses right off the bat. My plan is to get prepared for a long time of transportation to locate a new "base of operations" and what I would have on me, besides the basic requirements, would be light defense tools for the moment, but mainly tools to build a new "Home"

Once situated, then I will begin my collecting of other needs, such as weapons and ammo to help build up a proper defense for my new location.... when the time arrives that is.

At a time of something like the above, I'd rather be able to travel light and fast to get proper locational distance from main attack areas, then build from there, then to be piled up like Rambo and slow my progress down.

When you do actually aquire "enough ammunition", camp is where ever you happen to be at the moment.

I usually study a location for what I may need to get in and out before I walk in with a pile of weapons and equipment I may not need, causing more of a hinderance towards my effectivness in operation.

Throughout my firearms/shart shooting training and other means of study over the years, I'm more of a sneak, distance and avoidance person, then someone who will walk in like a terminator asking for clothes, boots and a motorcycle.

But now we're off topic.

This conversation is funny and I can relate. My fiance constantly complains about my purse and how much "stuff" I have in it. BUT!!!!!, the second he needs a pen, headache medicine, extra change, etc......who does he ask? ALSO! If the purse is such a issue, why are men always wanting women to carry stuff in their purse for them? Really I think it is funny! As for the ATM.....it is all attitude. If she really cared about your time, she would be organized prior to getting to the machine. I have the same complaint about the bank drive through. Nothing irritates me more than someone that spends 5-10 minutes filling out forms before they send them through the shute. If you are going to be a long time, get the forms, get out of line, fill them out, get back into line and send thm through! People are so selfish, and it's not just women!

Women need purses so they can put your balls in it.

That would make a good scene in the next Naked Gun movie. Leslie Nielsen turns to Priscilla Presley in a moment of crises and demands an escalating list of weaponry..."gun, bazooka, rocket launcher, ICBM..." and she dutifully hands him each item from her purse.

It's not just women. I just made a trip to Atlanta over the past week with a layover each way. Being a smoker, a general outcast, and having to go outside to smoke, I made several (at least 6, maybe closer to 10) trips through security. Whenever I go to the airport I wear slip on shoes, have everything from my pockets either in my carry-on or in my jacket pockets. I have my boarding pass and ID in my hand even before I approach the security line. Plenty of people, both men and women, wait until they get to the guy checking ID's and then start fumbling through their purses and wallets to get what they need, then they have to stumble for their IDs. When they get to the line to go through the scanners, they line up their tubs at the back of the tables provided, rather than sliding them to the front and leaving room for others to get ready. Then, when I slip my shoes off, throw my jacket on top, put my computer backpack on the table with the laptop in a tub in about 20 seconds, I'm still waiting for the idiot in front of me to empty their pockets and still forget something and have to go through the detector five times before they finally figure out what's beeping.

And then, getting off the plane. The people who bring on the huge carry-ons and spend all of the time emptying out the overheads while those of us that are ready could have already been all the way up the jetway by the time they start moving to the front of the plane.

You know, if you're not ready to walk off the airplane you can just sit your butt down and let those of us that are be on our way.

Rude and inconsiderate doesn't even begin to address how people act. And, it's not just women at ATMs.

hahaha This thread is full of epic win!

ah man, Im still laughing!

Women's purses of abyss mixed with technical support stories. Man, I could live in this thread. I worked at call centers for over 3 years dealing with anything and everything. I've had porn stars call me, tons of idiot savants, tons of crazy people, a few celebritys(drew carey was getting Searching for Satelite on his TV LOL!) and occasionally, a phone number or someone saying I have a sexy voice, but those I hardly remember. It's the idiot calls I remember most. But, instead of going off into the wonderful world of tech support stories, I will instead reply about the ATM fiasco because I get annoyed at, what I thought were some of the smallest things.

I am a gentleman, I am patient, but when I need to get somewhere, or outside of my little own comfort zone, such as 5 o-clock traffic, I got apeshit...

The same thing that happens at the ATM happens everywhere. Supermarket, the fast food drive-thru, hell even at work... It's amazing how people are so content with their lives that they don't think of other people who might be affected, or who are too stupid to count past 10 in one sitting... What really IRKs me is when I'm in one of those so-called lines, whether atm or grocery store, and this person(usually woman ruffling vigerously through that duffle bag of a purse) is taking ungodly amounts of time, and I see a line to the side of me that is longer, LONGER! And I just sit there, as I see the line get smaller and smaller and I think about going to that line, but I hesitate... I think, how long could this lady take?! The only thing that comforts me is the silent agreement of discomfort and frustration the people behind/in front of me feel as we glance at each other. It makes me feel like I'm not the only one with anger managment problems and sometimes day dreams about taking a sawed off shotgun and going crazy on the ole hag's purse...

But, I'm a gentleman, so I stay in line, sigh a lot out loud, and if she catches me sighing, I just wait for that sneer they give you, so god damned condescending-like, like you are next to nothing... Ohhh, thank god for violent video games and pot, because I don't know if I'd be able to keep myself from choking someone next time they piss me off.

See what I mean? This is tons better than some boring tech support story.

Everytime I wait in line, I think to myself, would it so seriously affect their bottom line to have one more cashier? You've got 20 some aisles, and 18 of them are closed WFT? I'd say it's obviously a plot to get you to self-checkout, but those lanes aren't always open.

The Home Depot where I live doesn't seem to have regular cashiers at all on Sunday. The only person there is a self-checkout person.

I just went to court recently. Got my ticket dismissed for $10. Although, I had to take a whole day off work to get that taken care of. So, essentially that ticket cost me $200 in lost wages. F' the goverment!!
