gwalchmai Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 My wife and I picked up a little wall hook at an antique shop recently for our powder room (some folks call it a "half bath" but my wife calls it a powder room even though I explained that a proper powder room would be located closer to my reloading bench, but that's another story). Well, I asked her where I should hang it and she said "over the vanity by the sink". Me: "Wouldn't that get one's coat wet?" She: "Are you dense? It's for a towel." Me: "Of course not. It's to hang one's coat." She: "Whoever heard of hanging a coat in the powder room?" So tell me, oh Font-o-Wisdom, do y'all not hang up your jackets when visiting the pooper? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jfost11 Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 This is inside your house, right? Is it normal to be walking around inside your home with a coat on and wearing it into the bathroom? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but what if you're visiting someone's home and wearing a suit, or a sport coat, or a cardigan, or a Nehru? Or, of course, if you're wearing your favorite smoking jacket, or your bathrobe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is how i ended up with a router. The wife said she wanted the edges of a square piece of wood rounded. That to me meant use a router. Turn the edges down like quarter round. She meant turn the square into a circle. Women's is different. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Usually i kick the door open and yell, "Clear!" This is a warning. Something is about to happen. Move to safety. Then, i detonate an area denial munition. After a period of time...things return to normal...but all know..."That is my scent! Fear me!" Edited March 12, 2021 by Historian 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gave all my business attire to Goodwill when I retired 8 years ago. Ever since I wear literally every single day of the year Wally World t-shirts and camo cargo shorts. I don't own a single jacket anymore. The few times it gets cooler or I have to travel, I just get used to it. Been in Vegas last year for a week in January. Got a "few" looks from folks for walking around in t-shirt and shorts in winter. So yeah, throw that sink and hook out, and make it a powder and primer room. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I several suits and a tux for formal occasions. I wear them about once a month. The tux...at this point two or three times a year for charity events. I even have two military grade Scottish made kilts...for special events. Mostly memorials. Edited March 12, 2021 by Historian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huaco Kid Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 I own one very fine tailored suit. I wore it once. At my daughter's wedding 10+ years ago. I would never use a "powder room" at someone's house. I require much more of a buffer zone. The hook is moot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had an engineer from IBM once tell me to approach a server from a specific direction. She then said if I were a woman she would have told me to approach it from a different direction. She had co-wrote a study on the differences in the way people think. Needless to say she was brilliant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyzz Kydd Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Jacket in the bathroom? No. I'm not retired like crockett, but I pretty much wear jeans and a pullover, or shorts and a t-shirt/Hawaiian shirt. I have a walk in closet full of suits, dress shirts and stuff. The last time I wore any of that was to record a video spoofing Biden. Other than that I haven't worn anything fancy in a decade or so. As long as there's TP and somewhere to put my gun when I'm in the bathroom I'm happy. No hooks needed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
