Honestly, yep, this is me. lol.
My Pa taught me years ago that overall britches legs have the magical ability to sanitize a knife blade. Germs can’t exist on the blade once you wipe it on your overall britches leg. That’s my story at least.

I admit to doing this more than once. Including faculty dinners when all we had were those blasted plastic forks.

My uncles, who had farms, of which I worked on as a young un, taught me the same thing.

Many is the time working on the ranch when we were branding and castrating calves I have seen the old Cowboys set down to eat lunch who pull out their pocket knife, the same one they had been castrating with, open the spey blade, because it's sharpest, and cut up an apple and eat it with their lunch. Maybe they wiped it on their pants after they finished castrating, maybe not.
Ironically, that usually wiped it on their pants after they cut the Apple, because apple juice was sticky.

When my wife asks me if I want a napkin, she is already rolling her eyes, knowing that I would say, "Nope, I have a perfectly good pair of pants." But I do use a napkin once in awhile, and even wash my hands.

Please pardon my ignorance, but would someone kindly explain what "rona" means? This is the 2nd time this week I've heard the term, and have no idea what it means. Thanks, Mark!

It's a millennial 'new' word that has been shortened from the word Corona...i.e., Corona Virus. Hence; "rona". We're starting to see a lot of these 'shortened' words appear in the media and other social media venues.
It seems the younger generation can't speak true words anymore.

Lol. You and I must be related because I wipe all manner of stuff on my britches leg. Every day it seem when I come in my wife will ask “whats on your britches”? Usually I’ve forgotten by then. lol
Come to think of it, our wives must me kin too because Valerie rolls her eyes at me.....a lot! And I have no idea why!

lol. I know what you mean about them old guys. I guess I picked up some of their habits as a kid. I mean eating dirt and germs won’t hurt, makes ya strong! But a sticky knife blade? That’s just wrong. lol.
Great story my friend.

I know what you mean,
the kids have gotten so lazy it's just ridiculous!
The one that really gets me is "WORD",
now what the heck does that mean?

Around here it’s starting to be referred to as the “election infection”! OH
