Because it's rainpocalypse here, I'm wearing a black and white checked engineer's cap to A)keep warm and B)minimize the bad hair day.
So far, a half dozen people have walked by my desk and said, "nice hat."
Now I'm feeling silly and paranoid.
Jayne: 'Cause I don't know these folks. Don't much care to. Mal: They're whores. Jayne: I'm in.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

The status is NOT quo.
I wouldn't worry about it. Hats are worn rarely enough in our society that I've found every hat I wear--weird or not--elicits a ton of reactions.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
When did men stop wearing hats? '50s? '60s?
Before then, a man was supposed to take off his hat when talking to a woman, right?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
If I just last month finished paying off my credit card debt, that means I get to buy a MacBook Pro now, right?

Can someone tell me who's bright idea it was to have a frickin' fire drill just as I was about to go to the cafeteria for lunch?!? Oh, well, I used the "stand outside and wait for the all clear" time to get into my car and drive over to McDonald's, instead.

How do subs collide? They have sonar, no?
They also have anti-sonar technology. It seems to have worked brilliantly on both subs. There are only something like 170 nukes out there and the British and French have maybe 10 between them, so it's like when the only two cars on the road in Ohio ran into each other. Embarrassing is the word.

Does he not have school today? Curse our no-holiday-having school division!
President's Day is the beginning of Midwinter Break in Emmett's school district, aka "Ski Week."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am now wondering what it says about where I grew up that we just called it "February vacation."

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Jesse, I think the answer to that is that cowgirls don't ski.
ION, some jerk sideswiped my car last night. Left a big gash along the side and knocked the driver's side mirror right off. Did not leave a note.
