I bought a purse.
It was advertised as a man-bag, but I like calling things what they are, and this is a goddamn purse and I love it.

It is black leather with a big shoulder strap and a million zippered pockets. I finally got sick of walking around with all this shit in my pockets, so I carry the following in my purse:

A multi-tool that includes a hammer, pliers, and knife.

Tissues

Glucose pills

Pens

Note pad

Cell phone

Wallet

Cigs

Lighter

Right now, a leash

The best part about owning a purse is waiting for some asshole on the street to make fun of you and then you can smash his fucking face in for him.

It is heavy enough to use...it is a very good tool. They can be found at Home Depot. If someone makes fun of my purse, I can smash their fucking face in with the hammer.

2. a proper purse should always contain
a used mentholyptus cough drop wrapped in a shredded kleenex (and some cat hair) didn't you ever look in your mother's purse?

3. My dear LeftyFingerPop!
I've seen those, and they are way cool. The only problem for me is that they're heavy.

And I know you would never smash anyone in the face! Silly boy!


A leash?


:hi:

5. I just did a dog rescue transport...
and I brought my own slip lead leash because sometimes the dogs come with leashes that are not very strong. :hi:

4. I use a backpack as my purse.
My poor old step-father can't use a backpack, so he uses a gift bag as a purse. lol

9. My ex bought me a "handbag" in Germany, where it was not uncommon...
.
.
.
.
...and I've never been overly concerned with the biases and ignantz of others,
so I had no problem carrying it, even in the macho universe of the military
(though I didn't -- couldn't -- carry it while in uniform).
.
.
.
My problem was that I couldn't hang onto it for more than a few days before I
would leave it behind somewhere with all my stuff in it.
.
.
.
You KNOW how forgetful I am.
.
.
.
That's my story... and almost 40 years later, I'm STILL sticking to it.
.
.
.
.
.
.
LFP, I thought the fourth item in your list of what is in your purse right
now was your "penis".
.
.
.
I thought, "Poor guy's gonna schedule himself for a facial hammersmashin'
for insinuating that he's carryin' his manhood in there".
.
.
.
Happy to see that it was only "pens".
.
.
.
My legs are just now starting to unclench.
.

12. I have a really small purse
but it's heavy cause of all the darn pennies that have collected in the bottom. I could probably brain someone with it, they add so much weight to the thing.

I DO need one of those hammer-doohickys, though. Very cool!
