    I care, it's bad etiquette .


    Standards are slipping.


    Some traditions are worth keeping.

    I find track suit bottoms with the arse of them stretched to their knees from constant wearing more offensive. Lighten up op.

    What is a peak Mick cap , like the hats in peaky blinders?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,239 ✭✭✭Jimbob1977


    Is it as bad as the recent female trend..... to rest sunglasses on top of their heads indoors, outdoors, hail, rain or shine?

    Buy a hair band!

    It's something that wouldn't really bother me.
    Now I might not like the hats but they'll be moved onto something else in a few years.

    Could you explain what about it is bad etiquette?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 419 ✭✭mrskinner


    I remember seeing somebody from a well known rock band wearing a hat inside a church at a funeral service.

    Whatever about bad etiquette, that grammar...
    Ugh...

    OP has his work cut out.

    I hate these random rules that somebody just 'decided' gives you class

    "Don't wear your hat indoors"
    "Always offer your seat to a lady"
    "You cannot urinate here, this is a public waiting room"

    For fcuk sake! Stop policing my body you nazis.

    Only sexist pigs do that.

    It really exemplifies the patriarchy and shoves our toxic masulinity in their faces, completely uninvited. It just emphasises their female fragility and fraility, particularly so if pregnant. Preconditioning the foetus to know nothing else.

    Hats really suit some people. I love guys wearing baseball caps or flat caps. It shows they're confident too. I don't get why anyone would be offended by it or by any clothes. There's some guys I only fancy in a hat. Jarvis cocker is one of them. He puts a hat on and I suddenly wanna bang that sexy pencil.

    Well, if a ruffian refuses to remove his headgear if requested, especially in front of a woman-lady, the only recourse is to ask them to step outside, so they shall be educated by way of a manly bout of fisticuffs!
    If he is vanquished and yields to the request, celebratory cognac and cigars in the library are in order, but men only! The gentle women folk might give in to hysterics if confronted with intellectually stimulating conversation.

    How could wearing a baseball cap display confidence?

    Uncouth. Same sort of crowd who'd open an umbrella indoors. Not the way a gentleman behaves.

    My elderly neighbor wears his cap to bed

    There's an elderly gentleman in Dublin who I long ago (mid 90's or thereabouts) nicknamed inspector clouseau (given that I when ai first seen him (in a bookies) he was studying the form with a large magnifying glass.

    Well, he has a fedora and I've seen him maybe a dozen times over the years swan into the cinema just before the film starts and plonk himself down in front of people with not a fcuk given to whether or not he could be blocking someone's view.

    In fact on one occasion (how's it not been more I'll never know) he caused blue holy murder, in the IFI, when asked to take it off. I secretly admire the mad bastard if I'm honest. Always on his own. I imagine he visits a bordello and refuses to take his hat off there too.

    Same with masterbating on an airplane. Ever since 9/11 everyone got so sensitive. Thanks a lot Bin Laden.

    I think hats for men coming back in fashion are great.

    In my idealistic grunge inspired college days, I (briefly) sported a black beret along with my bum fluff goatee and long hair. I tried to look like Che Guevara but probably looked like more like Patty Hearst circa 1974 when she joined the urban terrorist group SLA. :eek::o
