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.
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)
Want to really feel old? It’s been that way for around 20 years now.
I’m fairly certain that 80’s Joe Burrow can’t fit in my pocket
Just wait 30-ish more years and hope he gets a cremation.
Might be illegal to put him in your pocket in some countries though.
Even if that was somehow possible, I’m sure it’s not desirable.
I don’t where the dude fits.
I think he’s chatGPT?
Maybe. I’ve seen this image for a while now.
He goes in the old prison pocket
idk, the image loaded fine on my phone
TBF, the stereo speakers probably sound better and are certainly capable of being much louder than my phone speakers. But yeah, miles better in every other capacity.
You can buy a bluetooth speaker that sounds as good (if you don’t need real stereo sound) and still have room in your pocket.

Who says that man doesn’t carry out that function?
Don’t forget about fidget apps, so throw in some bubble wrap too.
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?
I am pretty sure I cannot fit a whole dude in my pocket.
This is much more wholesome than what I was thinking.
It’s replaced by an AI chatbot now
Not trying hard enough
I try to fit a whole person in my pants every day. They only fit about half the guy, tho. 😔
Buy baggy sweatpants. Some of them will go up to your moobs.
Hi hungry, I’m dad
Not with that attitude you won’t
Huh, you have a dude in your pants now, congrats.
Yeah he provides good vibes.
Nice vibrations.
Positive shakes.
Pleasant bounces.
I’ve always had a dude in my pants
lol, that dudes out there with no dude in his pants, what a dumbass.
Mr dudeless pants!!
… but that’s just bcs I don’t wear pants, I like to donald-duck it.
You could always keep him in your prison pocket.
Nothing but cock & balls hanging out - finally my dickbutt cosplay is complete!
No worries, happy to help!
Except for my lack of self awareness, which I wear dripping down my sleeve.
I’m more than 50% sure I briefly worked with this guy.
Yeah. I’ve been meaning to call you to catch up. Sorry.
I imagine it’s been difficult to find your phone with all that other stuff in your pocket.
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.
Yes. At least the person with a boom box brought quality speakers.
Also, their sick roller skate moves timed to their music are pretty great.
Edit: Plus, it’s not inconsiderate, because everyone loves “Wham!” (Classic 1980s music, from the last time I saw a boom box in public.)
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?
jokes on you, I still wear jnkos.
Have you seen the size of pockets back then?
The forgot the encyclopedia set and a couple thousand books and a few hundred video tapes.
