Ladies and gentlemen, I give you... [More:] a picture of the dorky hat.

Was I wrong? (See here.)

Please direct all commentary to the hat, and not the person in it. Thank you.
You weren't wrong. That is not a hat to seriously wear. It is a hat for te-hes and ha-has.

It's a pretty dorky hat. If only it were 1/3 less tall in the crown. Then it'd be fine.
posted by Stewriffic 20 March | 13:59
Yeah, that's a dorky hat.

Might be handy to save for halloween though.

It's like the mutant spawn of a cowboy hat and a sombrero.

BP has it. That is a SERIOUSLY dorky hat. Good call, pups.
posted by lonefrontranger 20 March | 14:03
Good description, BP.

Yeah, that hat is bad.

Are you kidding me? Any witch in Texas would kill for that. Put it on eBay.

Oh and I love that you printed a sign for the hat.
posted by iconomy 20 March | 14:08
Yep. Dork-ilicious.

Now that's a bad hat.

Not so much a hat as a basket, I'd say. Are you sure it wasn't supposed to be your Easter basket in disguise?
posted by bmarkey 20 March | 14:13
I love that hat. That is truly a hat for the ages. That hat covered vast interstellar distances to bring us news of people just like us from far far away.

Just like us. Except their heads are shaped differently and their fashion sense is also kind of different.

At least it has vents.

It makes me want to hit you with a bat, in the hopes that you'll break open and candy will spill out!

I wish I'd had this line yesterday when we had the whole come-to-jesus hat-wearing discussion.

pie wins the thread. *snerk* now my colleagues are seriously wondering about me over here...
posted by lonefrontranger 20 March | 14:33
Can't you 'accidentally' leave it out in the rain?
posted by essexjan 20 March | 14:42
pie just made me laugh out loud.

And yes, bad hat. Very bad hat.

I know the name for this kind of hat. It's called a Dealbreaker.
posted by Hellbient 20 March | 15:00
It's somewhere between "Canadian Mountie" and "Mexican Sombrero", so I guess it makes perfect geographical sense.

Oh Charlie, let's go to Candy Mountain!

hellbient *also* made me laugh out loud.

The only explanation is that she's wearing it for the perverse joy of its sheer silliness and annoyingness. I think you should carry on making fun of it, and she should carry on wearing it. Perhaps you can make more pictures of the hat in different situations.

I think it's going through puberty right now. Give it some time, and it will turn into a nice summer hat.
posted by Daniel Charms 20 March | 15:56
I'd wear that hat. Which makes it hopelessly dorky.
posted by wendell 20 March | 16:09
Hopefully that hat is on its way to Goodwill, right?
posted by bunnyfire 20 March | 16:09
I love that hat.

I think it is: rootin' and tootin'.

Don't send the hat to Goodwill, send it to me! I always appreciate an opportunity to increase my "dork cred".

In direct violation of the original post:

*TOTALLY BEAUTIFUL WOMAN UNDER THE HAT*

posted by danf 20 March | 16:55
That hat is horrendous. Really. But maybe some fake flowers would redeem it.

*runs away*
posted by deborah 20 March | 16:55
This would be a good hat to invert, fill with soil, and plant something in. Once the seedlings are strong enough, you could even just plant the whole thing in the garden!
posted by jtron 20 March | 16:59
I kinda like it.
posted by jonmc 20 March | 18:35
Wow. Hat, you are some kind of ugly. You know what kind? Yep, the ugly kind.

and high falutin'!

That's not a hat. No one could seriously wear that without being chemically duped.
i wanna see how she wears it.
Will she balance a pancake on her head?
Can we put all kinds of stuff on her head?
posted by ethylene 20 March | 21:56
Please do not be putting things on my girlfriend's head.

This is a problem we're trying to solve, not exacerbate.
posted by mudpuppie 20 March | 22:07
I like the hat too.
posted by Divine_Wino 20 March | 22:16
Can we see it from the side.

I think it's fine. Maybe add a lariat around the brim. Some braided straw...

I like the Gus Stetson.

It's so hard to hide a giggle while reading this thread. Seriously.

But seriously? That's some bad hat, mudpuppie.

There's probably a really simple solution, but.... || Baby Pranks
