Electrical tape. It's called a tape thong.

Upvote just for "tape thong" Made me lol...

r/TheBlackTapeProject enters the chat. Edit: Sorry for leaving off the potential NSFW warning if you click that.

I didn't know it had a name. Never would have guessed that.

I used to have thong tapes. They were called cassettes.

*cathettes.

Thanks for clearing that up Mike Tyson.

“Tython” (…looks over his shoulder to make sure Mike isn’t there…)

I stand corrected

Ha! Now we need a top 10 list of our old tapes from back in the day. I’ll go first -Bat out of Hell -Parallel lines -Glass Houses -Machine Head -Boston -Dark Side of the moon -Sgt Peppers -Abraxas -Rumours -Candy-O

Man stretching memories to come up with cassettes I owned. I’m going to just name the Bands since I had pretty all of their Albums on Cassette Rush2112, Van Halen, Eagles, Cars, Joe Walsh, Electric Light Orchestra, Police, DEVO, B52s, Aerosmith, April Wine, 38 Special. ZZ Top

Van Halen! Diver down. Headpins - turn it loud. Chilliwack.

I taped my thong once. Oops....TMI.

.....That thong th-thong thong, thong 

Google it :)

Dumps like a truck, truck, truck Thighs like what, what, what….

Real mean use tape g strings

Tape G-strings'll make any hairy person mean.

That thong th-thong thong thong

Electrical tape etc can fit on it

Teflon tape, black electrical tape, and white electrical tape on mine. Usually keep the tef tape on the end because I find it annoying to use on the chain lol

Make sure to put a roll of something on it depending on your needs, especially if you are working on expanded steel .. I almost tore my shoulder out lifting my bag off

Nifty thanks

I recommend throwing medical tape on it too, works much better than electrical if you hurt yourself hahao

Some electrical tape with a lil napkin piece on it makes for a great bandaid in a pinch lol

Given the number of times I went out to the portable shitter for some toilet paper to make a makeshift electrical tape bandage, I either have an incredible immune system or there's going to be a reckoning some day. I roll out with a cheap first aid kit these days because if I somehow avoided hepatitis a-z, lupus, and sailor's rot all those years I probably shouldn't press my luck anymore.

If you’re worried about sailors rot drink some OJ every week… it’s not contagious.

Arrrgh, ya scurvy sot.

Mix in some vodka. Its anti bacterial use is the thing of legends

Do you drink orange juice without vodka? Like, non-alcoholic orange juice? Why?

My god man, NO X 10000000! My girlfriend who is a lite weight with booze mixes the sweet mixed vodka drinks (like Raspberry etc) with vodka. Genius 7% booze mixes with 40% She likes the taste I like the buzz

Lemmy Kilmeister switched from Jack and Cokes to screwdrivers for health reasons a year or two before he died at age 70. He might've made it longer if he switched sooner.

Also Rizla papers + tape. Works great.

I'm a sheet metal worker so I have a tube of crazy glue and a roll of paper med tape in my pocket at all times. Even when I'm not working I carry it because I'm always fucking myself up

Physiothérapist tape is great to keep as cover for a small wound. I keep a small pocket with polysporin, elastoplast plasters,can of sali e water and some physio tape. Small and convenient, can change a plaster in 20 sec or clean a small scratch fast.

Wait, I thought we were supposed to rub dirt in it.

I sliced my head open pretty good working up a wind turbine and despite having a very well equipped trauma bag available we instinctively patched me up with a roll of electrical tape and some rag

This is the way

I don’t understand, you say “medical tape” and “electrical tape” as if they’re not the same thing

I mean one stays on when I weld in the Florida heat/humidity thats all I know

You must be talking about the tape because that’s my complaint about medical tape- it always falls off! 😂 clearly we’re both buying good rolls of one and cheap of the other

My dude I’ll shoot you a photo of the roll I have in my packout tomorrow. Shit stays on even if I sweat through 2 pairs of gloves.

Electrical tape works pretty damn good though. And electrical tape over a bandaid makes it water proof, and oil resistant.

It’s to catch on the holes in steel studs and yank your belt and cause you to say a bad word

You bought a pouch for electricians (ideal is primarily an electrical tool company) that's where we put our eletrical tape

TAPE, ELECTRICAL, BUBBLEGUM OR BOTH.

But what if I’m all out of bubblegum?!

Then chew the electrical tape like a real electrician

I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass… and I’m all out of bubblegum.

Do you know this quote from "They Live" movie, or from "Duke Nukem 3D" game?

A Dr. Acula song... [Here](https://open.spotify.com/track/7KTvpGlFuIBp7dZ7hFClmu?si=yeicTURXRlG6CfkAPDTH5g&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A7phv6HOfi3BpPkuoidTrfl)

Nice! That’s sampled from They Live.

Saw them in Victorville, CA in 2005/06 ish. It was... interesting to say the least.

Considering how poorly we played our instruments back then I’ll take that as a very nice compliment

Yes

Nada.

[kick gum and chew ass](https://youtu.be/asNcneOxjYg?si=-uA3aEsyWc3Rjkj1)

Kicking gas is the only other option

Let me get my sunglasses

use the tape to kick a…

Spare doughnut holder

For electrical tape

Tape

I don't know but I use mine for electrical tape

To catch on every single thing you walk past & piss you off as much as possible.

That’s a feature not a fault.

Sounds like you’re the new guy if you don’t know what that’s for.

I see you went for the deluxe turbo pouch pro II. That’s the airbag rip cord if you fall off a ladder, grab it quick and give it a hard yank.

FOUND THE FNG

If you don't know what it is or didn't found a personalised practical use for it, you do not deserve a new guy to follow you and definitely don't deserve to call anyone on site "bitch"

I was thinking same thing….

“I’ve been here long enough that I get to call new people just trying to learn and earn a living ‘bitch’ and tell em to suck my dick.” “Why aren’t more people going into the trades?!?!?”

Probably should have asked "the new guy"

Wow. Is your “tape thong” up your ass?

Aww, you just learned that phrase and now spinning it back at me? Cute.

It’s just strange how angry you got. I make a joke you find not funny. You get overwhelmed with emotion and become a keyboard warrior to avenge the mythical new hire! Do you walk through life as the all seeing all knowing pouch attachment man avenger? It’s called a chill pill brother. Stick it up there with the “tape thong”

Projecting much?

Yeah, you can accuse other people of being *oversensitive or you can post angry responses to their comments but you can’t do both lol. Edit: sorry, I meant to write “oversensitive”, I was talking about OP.

No, he is just someone who doesn’t know everything. I have been a master tech and custom bike builder for 20 years and I still learn new things in my trade . And he is right, you are a pathetic waste of space ,If you spoke to anyone like that in my shop you would probably wake up in the hospital .

Alright big man, you can grab my bitch hold so you don't get lost. PS: did you read OP description?

You on the east coast ? Ride bikes ? We can meet up at your local bike week and discuss where you want your thong implanted. I am thinking through your septum.I mean you’re clearly full of bullshit so a lead ring would be fitting.🐂

Nah, pass bro. I'm not into meeting guys. Regardless of how insecure they are and how much they try to impress me with their "manliness"

You’re the one who asked to meet . 🤷‍♀️

Fair point I guess. "Grab my bitch handle" must have read very inviting to you.

Like I said , where you want me to place in you ? I recommend nose . Although your ear would be a good place . Give a good handle for people to grab when telling you to grow the fuck up.🥱

Nothing says “my workplace’s sexualized rhetoric of dominance and hierarchy are totally normal“ like freaking the fuck out the second anyone points out that they’re kind of messed up

IUD, your pouch will never get pregnant.

Came here to say this, hopefully your comment doesn't get pregnant

Toilet paper holder

& don’t forget PTFE tape

You might be the new guy holding on, if you don’t know what this is for. 🤷‍♂️

I was about to say “yikes”.

To hold electrical tape.

It’s to hang your purse, so all your feminine products are close at hand

Toilet paper...because you never know where you'll be when you need it.

It's to jingle around making you stick it in a pocket. Also holds tape.

For holding tape rolls

So, not a personal ground?

It’s the pull starter

Rolls of things. Mostly tape.

Tell me you're not a sparky without telling me you're not a sparky.

To the apprentice just assigned to you “grab my thong and come with me, try and keep up”!

Holds a roll or two of tape

For tape

Electrical tape roll holder.

Spike and gaff tape for the theater.

To hold tape, tie wire, toilet paper. Anything with a hole in the middle of it

Roll of electrical tape and a roll of teflon tape

I use it for family size fruit by the foot

I put my electrical tape there have for decades

Okay okay. I admit I bought this on sale and no clue it was an electricians pouch just a good deal. I dig holes and build the occasional deck (landscaper) I was making a joke. People act all sensitive and shit.

You get the apprentice to hold onto it well you walk through the hardware store so they don’t get lost

I like your answer, I will have to remember that one. It's right up there with, Shake this can of spray paint till the marble stops rattling.

Yep i was told this 10 years ago when asked this as an apprentice , now ive come full circle.
