    Who still utilizes pocket watches these days? Even I have one, but I stuff it into my shirt’s pocket (the other end has a key ring which I attach to a shirt’s button).

    I’ve found that watch pockets are perfect for holding my Zippo.

    That giant ball must be like a gobstopper but why was it painted?

    Ah, so that’s why it was used. I always wondered why on earth was that little pocket put in the jeans.

    The guy that created the World’s largest painted ball needs to get a life.

    I’ve got a pair of slacks with a right front pocket that has a small pocket inside that I believe to be a watch pocket.

    Would this be a Guinness world record for the use of the word pocket?

    I use my little pocket for holding cash, dollar bills folded into 1/4 fit perfectly in there.

    The jeans that Costco sell have a much larger little pocket that is supposed to be big enough for carrying your cell phone. Unfortunately since then cell phones have gotten much bigger and it rarely works, but it is a nice addition.

    “Raw Sushi”? Isn’t that a redundant term?

    “Sushi” is the flavored rice, not the raw fish (sashimi). “Raw sushi” would be uncomfortably crunchy.

    Here all these years I thought I was so clever. At work I had to reach into a lot of tight spaces,(mechanic), and a watch strap would get caught up on things. So I always just took the strap off and put the watch in the little pants pocket. Always thought it was a coin pocket.

    Must be why it’s called a watch pocket. At least it used to be.

    A painted baseball? Would’ve been easier to start with a wrecking ball and use less paint…

    And not one person has mentioned they used the little pocket for their condoms! Completely unsafe! What is the world coming to?

    Kit Kat is the social candy, “break me off a piece of that…”

    Twix, on the other hand was anti-social with their onetime slogan“Two for me none for you”.
