Attention, please: gun posts

210 Upvotes

Hello!

The purpose of this community was to give nosy people a chance to take a peek inside your bag (everyday, travel, or special occasion). This sub (and the posts that belong here) are pretty much inherently attention-seeking. People who don't want attention don't post their stuff for everyone to look at. Calling people out for "attention seeking" is silly. That desire for attention is what keeps the posts rolling and this sub providing entertainment.

GUN POSTS
If you carry a gun on your belt, that is, BY DEFINITION, not something in your bag. Posts like that will be removed as spam.

People sometimes brave the storm of downvotes and comments to post their bag guns. Please try to resist reporting those to the mods, as this community is growing enough that gun posts and the subsequent flurry of reports of both the gun post AND the nasty comments back and forth take a lot of time to sort through. Most of the time, everyone's acting like it's their first day on the Internet, and there's nothing for a mod to do.

Thanks and keep the posts coming!

My family had a few companies making bags and sometimes the ugly prototypes made good Halloween costumes. Here I am in the early 80s. Happy Halloweek!

I keep packing for situations that never actually happen

Cleaned out my bag yesterday and realized how much random stuff I've been carrying around for no reason.

Two charging cables, an extra adapter, a notebook I haven't opened in weeks, and a bunch of other things I kept thinking I'd need someday. Most of it just sits at the bottom of my bag.

The funny thing is, on days when I'm out for 8 or 9 hours, I really only reach for a few things. My phone, a small magnetic wireless power bank, and my open ear clip earbuds get used way more than anything else. I still end up carrying extra stuff though, just in case.

Thinking about going with a much smaller bag and seeing what I actually miss.

Anyone else realize they've been carrying the same useless stuff around for months?

Nothing much, but all the essentials

Charger, gum and a book only when I expect my day to be longer than usual!

Anything else I should be carrying on me? It's a bit sparse but I can't think of anything else I really need.

95% of the items stay the same. I might take out a few items or swap them out every now and then. Carry all this in a 22L Yeti Crossroads Backpack.
