So, my partner would do this. One day, she was driving me home from work, and there was a period of extended silence between us, and we had this conversation:

Her: Whatcha thinkin' about?

Me: What would the days of the French Revolutionary Calendar be if they were translated into Esperanto?

Her: ...

Me: Well, you asked.

Exactly why my partner no longer asks me, either.

"I was wondering if people who lose lots of weight and have extra skin could have a kangaroo pouch made with their extra skin. Skin is easy to graft anywhere, so I don't see why not... Buy would it get saggy and stretch out? Can you get a tendon implanted to keep it tight?"

Road trips are 100% podcasts now.

You could definitely make a marsupial, but I think the challenge would be keeping the pocket dry and fungus-free.

Yeah, I figured it would be like obese people that have folds... They clean them, right? Do they get fungus? Is this only for people in desert places? Ooooh... Wait, never thought about sweat before. Hm... OK, so whoever suggested a drain was right. But that's maybe also a deal breaker from my perspective.

put a drain in the bottom, that way when you shower you can wash the pouch and the water drains out. Towel dry, then throw a couple silica desiccant packs in and you're good to go.

Oh! Let me know if you find anything. Evey time I ask a doctor they get weird about it.
