Sick of lugging a purse that can fit extra binkies, six diapers, a hard case of hiney wipes, a soft case of hand-sanitizing wipes, tissues, snack bags, spit rags and maybe even your wallet? Stop complaining. That bag of crap could be your life.
A college student at Middle Tennessee State University fended off a would-be robber last week with her over-sized purse. When he shot at her with a .38 caliber handgun, the bag stopped the bullet. She walked away without a scratch. The difference between her bag and ours? Elizabeth Pittenger's purse was filled with college-kid crap while most of us have our bags full of pint-sized-kid crap.
Seriously, I gave up on trying to find a bag that didn't make me look like a hobo a long time ago. Then women started carrying them around on purpose - even young, style-conscious college students. Imagine their surprise when they find out the old mom hags had it right all along - those things really are practical!
