Walking around, stabbing my pocketknife into nearby pipes to get water when I get thirsty
I hope she's as nice as possible when she breaks it to the entire military that carrying a pack and rifle is female tendencies
"Dad, I'm thirsty!"
"Not to worry, I've got my pocketknife! Now all we need is to find a cactus...Ooh, or one of those vines like in Predator"
only if you don't burn up gallons of cancer fluid to take take 5000 lbs of metal with you. Then, even picking up your kids from school and buying groceries can be a very manly heterosexual activity as long you do it in your shiny 8ft tall tronck.
So true, even my dog gets self conscious if we walk in the neighborhood too much. I need to spend at least 5 dollars is gasoline to ensure I'm getting my dog hetero sexual exercise.
Hydration is very gay. Tell me you don't feel like immediately sucking on a big pocket rocket after a few sips of h2o.
Better bet is to just stick it in the bottom of your bag, not say anything and know there's a 95% chance they don't find it based on their own internal testing.
That's how I've accidently flown with a knife the last two times I traveled.
The line between a bit and actual chud ideology and practice is blurry and has lots of overlap.
There is a certain type of person who is dedicated to determining which traits are feminine and which are masculine
Men are supposed to be angry, carry sharp objects, grunt and fart
Women are supposed to lie, eat hot chip and charge their they phone
The only things men should be carrying around are his wallet and a pocket knife.
Real men leave their houses unlocked, don't have a car, and don't even own a cell phone.
if ur not a woman and youre hangin dong, its gay.
fellas, thats literally a mans dick permanently attached to your crotch? Come on, thats gay!
you joke but out here in Arkentennesse thats REAL shit men will say to sound macho lmao. also the pit bulls are quite better than locks
This guy in the 1800s showing up to the HMS Terror to go find the Northwest Passage armed only with a pocket knife and nothing else, trying to explain to the crew that carrying things is feminine and gay actually

Look at this aristocratic dandy. Paying for things and using tools. Did all his teeth fall out or something?
Staying hydrated while being blasted with dry recycled air and surrounded by thousands of people with unique bacteria and virus biomes: very feminine.
as someone who works in the trades, I'm almost always carrying a pocket utility knife, though I probably use the screwdriver part more than the knife part
I get you there - multi-tools actually are useful, but I find the actual knife to be the least useful part of it, and i'm too much of a fat white-collar nerd to actually need one day to day
How exactly do you recommend I cut up the hunk of manchego I bring wrapped in a cotton bandana as part of my lunch regularly if not with an Opinel No. 7?
As with all things vaguely Hemingwayesque, it's merely a show to hide my erectile dysfunction.
yeah, living rural or if I were into hiking, i could see the use.
but being a suburbanite australian like 90% of people here, it just seems so alien to me to actually need to carry a knife
Well, in the late eighties Australian men would frequently flourish knives as a part of a competitive mating ritual in front of the females. After which point the challenged male would exclaim, "That's not a knoife. THIS is a knoife!"and attempt to produce a larger blade. This trend continued until Prime Minister Bob Hawke was grievously wounded by a zweihander after which carrying knives without a permit was banned in Australia

as we all know, Hawkey was actually wasted and mistook it for another yard glass
I wonder if suburbanites do the same thing with knives that they do with pickups and continuously buy knives with larger and larger handles while the size of the blade stays the same
tfw accidentally pommel striking my wife as i take my "pocket knife" out of its scabbard because a homeless man looked at me
What do you open boxes or letters with?
a stanley knife I keep in my cutlery drawer
What do you pry the caps off bottles with?
a bottle opener keyring because I'm an alcoholic australian, otherwise a lighter or the side of a table/plank of wood
Ever since I quit smoking I been opening em with a closed pocketknife the same way.
What about cutting stuff? What do you use to cut stuff?
You find an edge of something you won't damage and use that to pop the lid of course.
letters and boxes you carefully open with your hands without ripping them.
What do you pry the caps off bottles with?
anything, spoons, countertops, other bottles, a key (painful), not teeth, anything except the tool designed for it
I work IT; having a little knife around for boxes or as a screwdriver if you use a multitool type can be surprisingly useful. I don't really do desk visits/onsite anymore, but definitely helped then.
I carry a mini screwdriver set around, it's actually been useful a few times. No pocketknife though.
It's been around for a while. Think of whenever a guy carries a satchel and there are endless jokes about how he has a purse. Think about a how companies sell "tactical diaper bags" for guys too insecure to carry about baby stuff for the child they're raising.

Funny you mention that. I saw a dude with a baby harness today at the grocery store and he seemed like a normal dad looking after his child. So cringe how guys try to insert faux manliness into shit like that.
