So this EDC stuff got me curious especially since the majority of the posts in this thread migrated from keys, watches, and cottonballs into “whatever is typically stored in an armory”. So I’ll add back in some inputs of my own based on www searches on the topic. Things others suggest - and do I carry them?:
Hair comb - no, I have male pattern baldness. What’s left is too short to coiffe.
Hair bands or rubber bands - ummmm, nope (see prior input).
Nail clippers - nope, that’s what teeth are for.
Handkerchief - nyet, I prefer long sleeves or Kleenex tissues.
Lighter - as the Seminole Indians say (but with a different meaning) “nene” as I gave up pyromania a few years ago and I have never smoked.
Flask - nopers but now I know this is a thing. I used to think “it’s five o’clock somewhere” was the official trigger to drink. But now that I can sociallly EDC that bad boy, I’ll be heading to the liquor store to get one toooonight!
USB flash drive - I’ve not had to steal any secret plans from a corporate mogul’s temporarily logged in and abandoned PC for several months now, so the closest flash drive I have is in my gym bag. Seems I can always find one for cheap at 7-11 or almost anywhere if I need one. That’s the same reason I don’t EDC a bottle of Coke nor a breakfast burrito - they be at 7-11 everyday.
Breath mints - yes I do.
