It's a wide-bottomed bag, so just setting it down makes it look fuller than it is. Add all those little things tucked into front pockets and it looks bulky :(

That is totally the repair kit above the knife. I am stupidly obsessed with being prepared, so if my bike breaks or I get a flat or whatnot, I'm not stranded. Plus, one must be prepared at all times for the zombie apocalypse.
