Scangers With Stupid Looking Winter Hats?

Ross_Mahon

Most of the stalls on Henry Street are selling them, they come in White/Black or Grey, Really ugly looking things that are resting on the craniums of Scangers about the city like head crabs from Half Life...

What is provoking them to straighten their hair and wear these stupid looking hats? They are even growing their hair now? If you did that a few years ago, You would be called a 'smelly rocker'

I've always associated those hats with Arts students, you know, the ones who always knew where to get their hands on a 5-spot.

Yeah, I've not seem many scummers wearing them. Mainly stoned hippies.

yoyo

N Dubz, its a new "hip hop" band from London, and they wear those type of hats, horrible things, Heres their Myspace

You mean there are non-stupid looking winter hats?

Nalz

Nearly annoys me as much as the snobs on Harcourt st etc who wear scarfs losely around their neck

I used to wear one of them back in 2000 when i lived in the states. I'd come back over here at Christmas sometimes and i'd wear it. Nobody wore them then. I guess i was just ahead of my time.

My name is Mud

I have had my "stupid looking winter hat" for about 9 years now.

It keeps my ears and head warm at the same time.

Your location seems to suggest that you and your hat will fit right in.

flushje

OP you are correct. I've noticed a huge increase in the number of shambowla's wearing these hats.
They used to be cool, as some one said art students would generally wear them. Even the hot posh girl in the AIB add had one.

I'd rather freeze

Berty

I thought you needed an old VW Van or similar to wear one of those. :eek:

They haven't come this far North yet!! Must be just inner city at the mo.

Ross_Mahon

Its something you would see in a country with snow or Canadian teenagers wearing? Just doesn't look right on the scangers noggin, Makes them look like Dumb asses.

ninkynonk

Yeah a few of my mates had them a few years ago, and the scangers at the times would laugh at them for wearing them. At the time the Fasion for them would to have a baseball cap at an angle and have their hair down into a row of points. I used to be laughed at for spiking/ messing up my hair, the the Scangers started doing that too.:mad: then they started to grow mullits! Sure the Clobber on scangers now is mad- they seen to be wearing these hats with multi coloured tracksuit tops which look like something from 1983 and tracksuit bottoms tucked into their Lovely white socks. Its like a uniform they all must wear!

I hate Scangers!

Acacia

As far I can tell, skangers still wear those manky baseball caps that seem to just float over the back of their heads. Those woolly hats are more of hippy thing, no?

seamus

I've seen plenty of "normal" people wearing these, but they instantly make me think that person hasn't showered for a number of days and that they stink.

Also, of the few people in this world I can honestly say I 100% dislike, the vast majority of them have at one time been seen wearing one of these.

i always wear an ear flap hat during winter, i even bought a brand new one (not the cheap ass ones on the stalls in henry st) this year, and then noticed all these little cream crackers wearing them too, wtf? Well hopefulyl if its a trend started by some **** hip hop band it will have died out by next year and i can go back to wearing my hat and only have people confuse me with an arts student (im not) rather than a scally

Monkey61

Stupid N*Dubz.

Every knacker that came into the shop to buy that album over Christmas was also wearing one of those hats at the same time.

omfg you could end up wearing the same clothes as someone who speaks with a flat dublin accent :eek::eek::eek::eek:

SoupyNorman

Although I agree that its a stlye many others had long before our bum fluff lipped friends adopted, it sweeps through their ranks like the fookin plague.

Just like Like these did:

Pink T-Shirts
Tucking Track suit bottoms into socks
and Nike Air Max (a classic)


I hear that the High Skanger of BumFluffton is the only one capable of combining all the above itmes on his person as a lesser squire would implode.

Yeah some of the hardcore scangers try to keep the cap nikey cap going, I knew a girl that wore them hats years ago and she got stick for it off the scangers.

It's for aerodynamics when running if the flare at the bottom is out it slows you down....

You know anyone who wears a tracksuit or nike's spends all their time robbing cars and houses and watching out for new trends in hats...

it's _all_ they're into

Ah sure, some people just slag anyone for the sake of slagging. Time was when the 'skangers' in my town slagged anyone with long hair/ a liking for music with guitars as a 'rockur!'- a few years later, they were listening to Metallica because it had been deemed cool.

There's a few that live across from my estate, Its like jumping into the back to the future car and going back ten years ago, They still wear the white tracksuits, Gelled fringe, Nike runners, Gold Chains and bear the dodgy tash.

They hired one for the Christmas, He was bringing all the old school rave CD's, Its like they don't wont to evolve like the current scangers? They don't want to be teh ghey with the hair and fancy clothes.

That's what I'd call a proper skanger - born and bred. Others are just wannabes

Today I will be mostly wearing a tea-cosy.

Scangers ruin good clothes. See it's like that with Converse, they can look grand with a nice pair of jeans etc... but when you tuck them into a pair of white tracksuit bottoms they look really stupid. Same with these hats, they look amusingly nice on a normal human being, but they would look ugly on the Michelin man. In fact, im gonna buy one of those hats today! Any good hat shops near walkinstown?

AnonoBoy

Jaysus - I used to wear those hats about 14 years ago in the States. I'm ahead of my time obviously!

Zangetsu

I hate these threads... silly silly op...

Xiney

Have one left over from when I lived in Montreal.


Amazing how when faced with -40 temperatures I ceased to give a fcuk what people could possibly have to say about what I was wearing.

stardust_dublin

oh my god, are you serious OP? what a stupid thread. those hats are winter hats, their use is to keep your head and ears warm. they have been around for years. who cares whether they look stupid or not? why do you care about the hats people wear on their heads?

if i wore one i wouldnt give a **** about how stupid people may think it looks on my head, id still wear it!

ReacherCreature

They're bloody stupid looking. Add to the fact that there's skangers wearing them, makes it even more stupid.

I was on a bus with some of the guys from the football team and one of them was pining for one of those hats, which he called a 'loser hat'

I laughed at him! :rolleyes:

Cos your a spa

Yes OP, the hats are stupid. We like them. I think that about covers all we can in this thread.

poshie

But scangers are wearing them. This is what forums were invented for. They have started turning up one of the ear-flaps too, the dirty bastards. Possibly so they can talk on their phones easier about how they'll be 'there in a bleeeeeedin minaaaaaah' as they travel on the bus to visit their chums.

ronnie3585

I would usually associate these hats with the douchebags who return from a week on a hill in Peru saying to anyone who will listen 'yea loike I tooootally found myself when I had to live the third world life style, loike, makes you really appreciate what you have' - Fcuk off.

Now I hear the skangers have stolen the style, curse those handsome devils!

abi2007

any one want one of these hats.. pm me. a mate of mine, that has some is selling them cheap.. he said somethin about them falling off the back of a lorry. Nothin dodgy bout them i swear

They look like something a granny would make, the scangers don't wear them to keep their heads warm, Its about looking 'Massive', It just doesn't look right on them, Next thing they will be wearing Soviet hats.

Gauge

I bought mine in Peru. Right skanger country that is, they were all wearing them!

The Citizen

I agree OP, the hats are like something your granny would put on a tea pot and look absolutely retarded.

Nobody with a brain would wear them. The scumbags do not have brains. We should unite in a total resistence towards the scum enforcing their fashion sense on this city.

They should be burned, just like the scum who wear them.
They should be burned by, The Citizen.

:mad:

Peared

Of course the real question is is it skangers with a k or scangers with a c?

I'm going for k.
