Power outage at the grocery store. Big day for me.
That moment where you pull out the fleshlight and it makes you a hero. People, almost exclusively other guys, will ask you where you got it and you get to talk about it. This. Is. Your. Moment.

It will not work here:
"Sir, This Is A Wendy’s"
but maybe here:
"Anyway, this is a Walmart"
Me, too!
It's plenty holesome.

My wife thought it was dumb when I picked up a lockpick set to play around with. Didn't think it was so stupid when we accidentally locked our keys inside when house sitting and I actually managed to pick the lock.
Double edged sword. I was into lock picking as a teen. When my family found ourselves in the same situation, I leapt into action and got the side door open in no time.
My mother freaked out at how easy it was to get into our house without a key, and went on an anxiety fueled journey of kitting the house out with extra security. It wasn’t a bad idea to up our security, but I felt horrible for stressing her out by trying to do a good deed.

How heroic and badass did that feel? I need to learn to lockpick. And get a wife. And lock her out.
I'm a firefighter\emt. I've gotten to pick Sooo many door locks over the years and it's saved a lot of people a lot of money and headache for it.
Anytime someone has "fallen and can't get up" in their locked house, but says they aren't injured, I'll pick my way in, instead of us having to break a door or window just because they need help off the floor.

MFW the roofers came to inspect a leak a couple of weeks ago and the kid turned on his phone's light before climbing into the attic.
Me after lending the kid my 3000 lumens pocket flashlight.

People with hobbies are cool
I get excited when my solar/battery setup seamlessly deals with short power outages. That $35k I spent years ago really pays off so I don’t need to wait 5 mins before browsing memes.

I get it. This summer I bought a battery bank and portable solar panels so I can a) take some load off a circuit that is overtaxed in the summer and b) be able to very slowly charge the car in the event of an emergency.
A month after getting it, we got a notice on our door that they were working on poles and our power would be out for 8 hours. I kept my whole homelab, and refrigerator running the whole time and the entertainment center running most of the time. Any thought that I spent too much, given the probable utility, immediately disappeared. I wouldn't call it pride in my decision, but it came damn close.
You can charge your car with a powerbank?
Yes. you need a grounding adaptor, though.

Werid that guy is carrying around an actual flashlight. Modern people just use their phones.
But the flashlight of your phone doesn't have the ability to take down a fighter jet when pointing at it.
I'm too old to remember that my phone has a light, but I do remember there's a flashlight in my pocket.
Though in another comment I said :
But I also always forget phones can do light as well. That said, I’m not shoving my phone down in an engine bay to get a better look at wiring, but that $15, 20 year old flashlight, sure.

That's my problem with EDC. I love the idea of being prepared for any eventually, but all my realistic eventualities boil down to how I'm going to pay for something, or how sunny it's going to be.

I was walking at a festival around 2010, maybe 20m behind a group of kids who had flashlights and headlamps. I wanted to have my light going in case they turned and walked a different path or whatnot. I turn it on normal-beam and they all stop and exclaim to each other about how crazy the light behind them was. I felt sooooooo happy! They all wanted to check it out and were astounded it does so many things. I felt like the coolest gurl in the land!
