It became a habit for me whenever I am leaving home. Phone and hand kerchief in right pocket, wallet and keys in left pocket. If any item is missing I feel an absolute dread that can't be ignored. Sometimes dap and iem in right and left pocket when it's one of those trips.

I feel like a handkerchief indicates way older than millenial

[–] RogueBanana@piefed.zip 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Nah, late twenties. Parents taught me from childhood so that stuck around.

I have always found the idea of a hanky really gross. Do you actually blow your nose in it and then put it back in your pocket?

[–] fartographer@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

I use it to wipe other people's noses, and then clone them into one mega-human when I get home.

[–] RogueBanana@piefed.zip 4 points 1 day ago

Yes, I fold it in a couple times so it stays on the inside

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

I do that with regular tissue

[–] toynbee@piefed.social 6 points 1 day ago

Spectacles, testicles (optional), wallet and watch. I know this is supposed to be how to cross yourself, but ever since my mother taught it to me I've used it as a way to make sure I was carrying everything I was likely to need.

Sometimes I'll quote it to my wife and she'll say "oh wait, I forgot my testicles!"

You put your handkerchief in the same pocket as your phone?

First of all, how big are your pockets?

Second of all, doesn't your phone collect oils from your hand? Do you really want that transferring to your handkerchief in your pocket?

[–] RogueBanana@piefed.zip 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Kerchiefs barely take any space, not sure what size you are thinking of. You change it everyday, just like clothing that picks up the oil.

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I guess I was imagining something the size of a cloth dinner napkin, or one of those things bandits cover their faces with. Didn't realize kerchiefs were smaller.

But my phone seems to attract oil and cling to it. I wipe it down with alcohol every few days but it doesn't take long to rebuild. Even while keeping my hands clean. I wouldn't want it in the same pocket as anything I wipe my face with

[–] RogueBanana@piefed.zip 1 points 1 day ago

You usually open up the folded kerchief to wipe your face. Shouldn't matter if the outside is oily.
