    I became disappointed when I zoomed in to realize she had a wallet chain and not a sproingy yellow coiled lanyard thing that was somehow attached to her phone. (Sorry, Amazon link: One of these)
    I don’t know why. I guess I just thought the idea was kind of cute and fun. This dad-fucking, bacon grease swilling, subway texter uses a cute little bouncy cord thing to keep her phone handy, amidst an otherwise austere getup - just a zany detail to contrast with the rest. Alas. Just a boring ass wallet chain.

      👀 I’m sorry to say this, but I actually might be getting some version of these. It WOULD be cute, imo, and they (especially the brightly-colored ones) make me feel little nostalgic.

      I lose my phone embarrassingly frequently. I have a wrist/necklace strap now, but I really don’t enjoy walking around with my annoyingly heavy phone dangling from my neck/wrist all the time, so I rarely actually use them.

      I’ll probably be finding away to attach a keyring to my TV remote, too 🙄

        Don’t be sorry to say that! I think the idea is pretty darn cute. When everyone tells you how amazingly stylish, practical, and clever you are, remember me!
        (But take all the credit for the idea for yourself - unless some poor fashionless soul doesn’t like it, then definitely blame me for a bad suggestion.)

        My wife has one of the neck strap ones, and she doesn’t like wearing it for the same reason. My brain just assumed they took one of the mounting plates from one of those and hooked it to one of those sproingy straps.

        Remotes are tough. We have a dedicated holder that is just where each remote goes as soon as it is no longer touching a hand, because they otherwise do get lost. Despite that, I’ve even considered 3d printing an AirTag holder that I can glue to the remotes, although that would just mean pointing my phone at the couch while it tells me they’re somewhere ‘in there.’

    Clearly, our fathers are trying to give her a massive heart attack before our mothers hear about this lady’s affairs.

    If you reversed the gender on this you’d the comment section would be a combination of roasting the hypothetical dude and complaining how trashy the shirt is.

    I don’t even think the double standard is related to sexism. I think you’re all horny degenerates who are emotionally stunted to the point where any woman implying anything sexual breaks your mind.

      I thought the same thing and I’m still not convinced that’s not what’s going on. I remember in the '90s so many people were putting chains to their wallets, you know wear your money is… Well your cell phone is probably attached to one of your accounts, so it’s money. This weirdly makes sense to me.

        I think it makes perfect sense, and a cool retro throwback. Fashion is cyclical after all! But I think the other poster was correct and she just has it fed through 2 belt loops.

          I just heard today that you’re considered old if you wear ankle socks now. It was the opposite when I was younger, not wearing ankle socks made you look old and out of fashion.

      Depends on what ya mean by large, if ya mean for example broad shoulder with somewhat odd muscle distribution maybe. But no most folks are just overweight, I have both I am five foot five so its actually accentuated somewhat.
