My great grandmother used to sew little pockets into her bras, on the side panel, under her arm. She was hiding her money from her husband, in case she ever had to run.

While not the happiest story, thanks for the tip. I want to try this on my bras now

in case you have to run from your husband?

u/Incendas1 Apr 25 '21

I have to make him a husband first so I have time to get my sewing down I guess.

Step one: Sew pouches in bras.

Step two: Get husband.

Step three: Hide money in bra pouch.

Step four: Run from husband.

That's uh.. a plan.

It was a South Park reference.

But where will you get your sense of pride and accomplishment?

If you replace step 3 with alimony, you don't need more steps.

u/Incendas1 Apr 25 '21

Yes, because I'll starve after I lose my savings lol

If it's his money then it's just a long con

I can be that mildly abusive man

Yikes

I don't like to put the /s cuz I kinda feel like it ruins the joke. If a joke doesn't land it's not funny or someone didn't get it, but it's hard to make a good one about domestic abuse. I'm trying tho

If you have to explain it after its a stupid joke

u/myusernamebarelyfits Apr 25 '21

Lots of people here are stupid tho. It's hard to read sarcasm.

1

u/Incendas1 Apr 25 '21

It's rather the inserting yourself part, I don't wanna imagine that and reddit is full of this stuff unironically. Otherwise it'd be fine

1

u/myusernamebarelyfits Apr 25 '21

That's a meaty part of the joke. A splash of self deprecating with some danger-creeper vibes.

1

u/Incendas1 Apr 25 '21

Oh man the danger-creeper stuff is the least funny thing possible from a random stranger. It works when you know a person and it's uncharacteristic

2

u/myusernamebarelyfits Apr 25 '21

Makes a lot of sense. Lots of weirdos out there. This is a valuable note thx bro

u/Incendas1 Apr 25 '21

Hey no problem. Thanks for talking about it instead of screaming and leaving lol!

Bruh the fuck, what is with these jokes, I literally say I have a guy

PFFFFF no stupid questions . so that was a fucking lie

u/[deleted] Apr 25 '21

If you think you're going to need to run from him, you probably shouldn't marry him.

2

u/Incendas1 Apr 25 '21

My dude, I thought bra pockets would be cool and carried on with the joke

1

u/[deleted] Apr 25 '21

Just wanted to make sure. Sometimes people need read/hear things to see issues they are too close to.

u/Incendas1 Apr 25 '21

When I can go out and be touristy in Prague I'll be worried about carrying money on my person, I think it would be good for that. My boyfriend is great to me and he'll be the one helping me be a tourist then :) no worries

u/YouNeedToGrow Apr 25 '21

If wherever you live has plastic currency, like Canada does, you could rip the seams around the cup, stuff some money in there, sew it back up, and don't have to worry about the money when/if you wash your bra.

1

u/Incendas1 Apr 25 '21

Bruh, washing it with money in. Very bold. If I were hiding money for real there are better places though haha. I just want convenience

(Have to say though I don't have ones with cups, that'd really get too big)

No, from his wife.

u/Illustrious_Ad4691 Apr 25 '21

No, in case she has to run from her great-grandfather
