Saga usually throws a few in if you buy a jacket or pants

Lanyards are great for making sure you don't lose your keys when drunk.

I have a lanyard because I tend to lose things. Pretty easy to find a big bright orange lanyard

Constantly the single most difficult part of my job.

Lanyards are for high school morons who want to look cool to let everyone know they got a car. There for fucking morons. They take up so much dam space kn your pocket and the string gets in your way when your driving.

one of the products with a very bad

"sales"/usage

ratio. i mean everybody has one (not necessarily bought though) and only complete fuckups use them or use it so that anyone can see "which brand they support".

Same with people who wear t-shirts with the brand they support... I mean, who supports a brand?

well for the most part, you are right (even though you were sarcastic).

i think its complete horseshit to act like company X "really is doing it for the love of the sport". reality check: 99% of companies are in it to win it. coins.



i was like that 10 years back when i soooo wanted an armada because it was so cool and they were rider owned and everything. but they arent in it primarily for the sport, but for the money. dont get me wrong, its probably better to start a ski company than work as something you have no interest in, but goddamnit people, at least realize that 90% of "core brands" produce overpriced stuff with mediocre quality. you can like them, no problem, but dont act like they are jesus fucking christ.

I use one but it doesn't hang out of my pocket because the last time I did that a chair fell over in the middle of class.

Got a lanyard when I was 16 in high school for my car keys... Almost 23 now and still use a lanyard to hold my keys... I don't know how you guys think it gets in the way, mine easily fits in my back pocket of my jeans. And I have (knock on wood) never lost my keys because it so easy to identify them, unlike my phone and wallet.

Not to mention it is very useful to put around your neck when you have to carry groceries, makes it super easy to unlock your door when your hands are full. Plus the NS lanyard that I am using has a built in bottle opener, that is always convenient.

He was knocking supporting brands.

It may be a necessary for someone to wear, but it isn't necessary for someone to wear one with a brand on it. I hope all your clothes are brand-less.

Throw in an OG jiberish beanie and it's a deal.



Also, just realized I have all these sitting right beside me. I was such a trend whore in my early ns days

i use a lanyard and i dont have it hang out of my pocket. But theyre super convenient when you dont have pockets or your bathing suit is wet. Plus and i wear them around my neck when i ski, cause it hurts my leg when theyre smashing against it

just a suggestion, start a petition for ns to get a order of lanyards. maybe have a contest for members to design them and vote on the best ones to be ordered. Good idea?

i have a wu-tang lanyard which to some might seem stupid, but the bright yellow makes it easy to spot anywhere, and only douchebags let their lanyards hang out of their pocket, put the whole damn thing in your pocket like a normal person!

You can tell the size of a man by the size of the thing that bothers him.

In this case, it seems to be the size of other peoples keychains...

Carry on.
