I'd never heard of this, but am raising my kids considerably more yeshivish than I was raised, so I decided to ask my sons, who attend a regular ashkenazi yeshiva with some chassidish rebbeim, if they'd ever been told this.
My older son said that his rebbe taught them that that's the way loafers in the street hang around, hands in their pockets, and told them that when he was in yeshiva the joke was:
Why did eisav need yaakov to poor the lentil soup down his throat?
Because his hands were in his pocket.
I thought this was hilarious beyond belief.
Not a bashing thread--please share funny ways things have been taught to you or your kids!

"only cats and dogs make waste outside," says the ganenet.
I guess my son is a cat then!

Pretty sure having hand in ones pockets refers to something else. I know of people that sew their husbands pants pockets closed.

I'm aware, but I didn't want to go there in this thread. That's why I made a spin off. Wanted to keep it light instead of another discussion about hands in pockets.

I was listening to a shiur and the Rav said (tongue-in-cheek) that he thinks that it is morally wrong that women’s clothing has no pockets.

Attributed to Rav Chaim Brisker, but quite possibly apocryphal:
Why did Hashem Himself bury Moshe Rabbenu?
Because it was ז אדר and the chevra kadiaha members were all too drunk.

That's why many women steal clothing from the men in their life.
