Too many that know me might think it was a bomb . . .

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

- @Pavlov I don't know if I'd think it was a bomb, but seeing you carrying a backpack would be so uncharacteristic that I might grab my bug out bag just in case the world was ending.

- @PocketBrain That must be a really big backpack. Do you have a mattress in there?

Why would I? What do people carry in their backpacks? Or is carrying an empty backpack around a new trend I'm not aware of, like when people wear nonprescription glasses?

- @awk (I wear a messenger bag, but close enough.)
  
  Mostly reading material, I guess -- I've got three books and a couple printed economics papers, plus a laptop, pens, notepad. When it's warm during the day, I put my jacket in it.
  
  Also, if I buy anything, it goes in the bag.

Bulky. Plus the work lockers are too small to fit a backpack in there.

My gigantic purse acts like a backpack. Water, mittens, hat, earmuffs, phone, wallet - everything I need fits!

I used to, but I have osteoporosis. :/ I may start again if the bones can take it. Corse, My spine is still fucked up even if my bone density gets back to normal.
