What’s in your man drawer?

The man drawer is the place you put pocket parts.

Now I have to define “pocket parts”.

When you assemble something, like a bike, or furnature, or a sink, you always have parts left over.

Every man knows that the manufacturers put extra parts in the box in case you lose some of them. Every woman knows that the extra parts are left over because you are inept, and did not assemble it correctly. The truth probably lies somewhere in the middle.

At any rate, these parts are “pocket parts”, because you put them in your pocket so as to not alarm the female supervisor in your life. Then a few days later, you slip them into the man drawer.

I don't have a man.

But I have several of those drawers.

There's something horribly wrong with that.

Yep. Maybe handguns’ll make a comeback along with the codpiece.

[Are you insinuating the I *porpoisely* left that line out of the article???] ;D

Naw, not at all...I was merely pulling your fin  :-)

It was an easy line to miss, particularly considering that they placed an utterly irrelevant ad for a comedian after the article and above the request for photos, and so those of us who have trained our eyes to automatically skip over ads will likely miss it. 

I only noticed it because I was scrolling down to the 'have your say' area to see if the Sun readers had any worthwhile commentary.  As usual, the FReeper commentary is far better   :-)

Perhaps I should post a description of a 'stoat-drawer' there just to tick them off and start a fight?  Descriptions of a stainless .44 mag with NO TRIGGER LOCK will most likely not go over too well.....

"snicker"

That's a strange correlation. Care to elaborate?

I was just thinking that the chances of handgun ownership in the UK were about as likely as the return of Henry VIII's well known fashion statement. ;P

Well, a true, bona-fide triple dog dare is one that I can rarely refuse.

Now if I can only find my Magic 3-D stoatcam....it's been awhile since I've seen anything buxom enough.....errr, excuse me, "cough" "cough" INTERESTING enough to to warrant using it....I know it's not in one of the handgun drawers, there's no room there....it may take me awhile to find it....  "sigh"

Man drawers? Heck, I have a man shed. 12X36, and crammed to the rafters!

Oh lawd...well, I can guarantee you that it's not gonna happen tonight....it's been a long day and this furry varmint is sleepy.  Perhaps tomorrow after work....it's been literally months and months since I've taken a photo but I need to find it anyway, what with bikini season errrr...."cough" "cough" excuse me, SUMMERTIME fast approaching.

I wonder though, if some hysterical, hard-Left Socialist limp-wristed staffer at the Sun sees it and "interprets it as a threat" if he/she/it gets a photo of a drawer full of guns from some Yank?

I don't need a visit from the FBI at the stoat cave, I barely have enough whisky for myself, certainly not enough for twenty SWAT team guests......

we will go: “Fabulous. We should immediately go to Corfu and buy milk.”

If my man ever said 'Fabulous' or instructed me to 'go buy milk immediately', I would pull the Glock out of my woman drawer and beat him with it.

Loose ammo. No lie. It beats finding it clattering around in the dryer.

And yes, I have. :-(

ROTFLMAO!!!

You simply MUST re-post that at the "have your say" area following the original article at The Sun.  The photo example of a 'man' drawer as well as much of the verbiage in the article suggests to me that the author sniffs at the notion of changing a car tire because it would get his hands dirty.

Probably a euro-twit who 'sashays' when he walks.......

Nice grips in the upper right-hand corner.
