(This happened last week. I did not buy a fanny pack. -A)
A: I am looking at the packing list for my mountain bike weekend and one of their suggestions is, "large fanny pack or small backpack." NEGATORY. Maybe I could bring my Louis Vuitton bag instead? They are going to love me.
M: So where are you going? To the fanny pack bike thing?
A: Um, yes. ONLY NO FANNY PACK. It's a all women mountain biking event.
M: That sounds fun! You're going to look so cute in your fanny pack!
A: SHUT UP.
M: What color is it? I hope it's eel skin. Maybe maroon.
A: I hate you.
M: I think I'll make you a fanny pack pinboard.
A: I think I'll call Wintour and tell her about this.
M: This one has so many handy pockets!
A: I QUIT YOU.
Eel Skin maroon! Haa! I had a maroon eel skin wallet. Dying.
ReplyDeleteHa!
ReplyDeleteI'm not proud of this but, I use a fanny pack type thing for running and hiking. It holds my water and keys. It's not pretty, but it's convenient.
I can't help squealing whenever Americans say 'fanny pack', because in Australia 'fanny' means vagina, so it sounds very rude. We call them a 'bum bag' (which is not very elegant, i grant you). In any case, has there ever been a flattering one?
