WASR-10 with a 75-rd RPK drum magazine.
I usually carry my Victorinox "Officier Suisse", which has wood saw, hack saw, ruler, scaler, hook remover, scissors, pliers, magnifying glass, phillips head screw driver, large flat head screw driver, small flat head screw driver, tiny flat head screw driver, micro flat head screw driver, can opener, bottle opener, cork screw, ball point pen, tweezers, tooth pick, pin, file, grapple hook, leather punch, chisel, some silly stuff that I'm not sure what to call it, and yes, even a big knife and a little knife.
Come to think of it, I'd better get a fanny pack for all this crap! :)
Which is more metrosexual, a fanny pack or an "Officier Suisse?" Methinks the latter.

I used to wake up in the morning I used to feel so bad I got so sick of having sleepless nights I went and told my dad He said, "Son now here's some little something" And stuck them on my wall And now my nights ain't quite so lonely In fact I, I don't feel bad at all Pictures of Pictures of Pitcures of Pictures of Pictures of Pictures of And then one day things weren't quite so fine I fell in love with I asked my dad where He said, "Son, now don't be silly" "She's been dead since 1929" Oh, how I cried that night If only I'd been born in It would have been alright Pictures of Pictures of For me and And I ask you, "Hey mister, have you ever seen" "Pictures of  |
You sound like my wife with her bunny blanket.
lol. He said stuff not someplace to store their "JUNK".
Just a bundle of insecurities :-). I have the baby, too, of course. There's nothing more reassuring than holding a baby.
Naw, this knife is not only uber-manly, but in a pinch you can construct a bridge with it. :) Above is the model I'm speaking of. One of my favorite things to do is to open it up just like this and offer to throw it to someone.
I don't know whether it's a security blanket, OCD, or maybe I am just plain nuts, but if I get change anywhere I separate it and I have to have the silver in the right pants pocket and the pennies in the left pants pocket.
Yeah - just plain nuts.

Wow, I'm jealous that you got a "New Dog." All I ever had was "Old Dog."
That was always his name, for some reason. I think I gave him up around age 2 or so, not sure. He was just like the story of the Velveteen Rabbit - all the fuzz was rubbed off of his head, one button eye was gone, as well as one jointed leg. He was thrown into a very large toy box in one of our family moves and I found him when I was 16! Incredible.
But, being a sullen teenager, I just threw him back in there and never saw him again. I definitely never got a "New Dog," however.
My brother had "Old Dog." It had originally been a rabbit, but the ears fell off and it became "Dog." He lost it when we were on vacation, and my parents got him "New Dog," but they didn't bond, so I ended up with it.
Just by watching people I'd say there is a huge emotional attachment for carrying around a bottle of water.
I know this is shallow and sick but my Linus Blanket is my remote control. Should it act up or be misplaced I actually panic!
And my other Linus Blanket really is FR.
I ALWAYS carry a cooler full of water bottles in my car. I have to due to the heat down here.
"I'm old enough to remember men carried stuff like you do"
I'm not all that old. I just don't often see men wearing fanny packs.... It's not all that uncommon with tourists, but just around town? Nope. ;)
My theory is that almost any man who wears a fanny pack for two weeks will become ADDICTED to them. In my own case I started wearing a fanny pack when I bought a whole bunch of them dirt cheap at a yard sale. They were brand new fanny packs with the USC colors and letters on it. Then I took them down to USC to sell them off. Of course, I wore one of the fanny packs to demonstrate how they look. I kept that one and within a few days was ADDICTED to fanny packs. I simply cannot go outside without one. All my stuff I need conveniently located in one place.
I challenge any male non-fanny pack user to wear and use a fanny pack for about 2 weeks. I guarantee he will also become a fanny pack addict.

Nah, the verbal abuse would prevent me from ever trying that. ;)
