    How can people sit through this reading what everyone has in their pockets/handbags, it's mind-numbingly boring! Or are people just skipping to the end and posting what's in their own pockets? Either way....... WTF?

    I carry the holy trinity that is keys, wallet and phone. All go in a separate pocket so I can easily check that I have all three when leaving.
