Who the hell are you?! 2.0

I'm not really seeing this ratio to be honest. Not even talking about myself, I know I do unseemly things to various items of clothing, but in general I think this so called universal opinion that wearing a type of hat well, is as rare as shiny chansey cards is a bit over the top. I find fedora's do wonders for people.

It's a numbers game. Numbers are literally my job, and the ratio is STAGGERING in this case. It's not just me and Gatsby saying it (though here on the site, it is)

I randomly just found this by typing "Fedora" into google.

Sure it's biased because it's LOOKING for bad fedora pictures but man is it accurate.

I'm currently sporting an overweight Axl Rose look. Modern day Axl is pretty close actually, it doesn't look good on either of us but I fail to care.

If it's comfortable and you're happy wearing it, go for it. Doesn't matter how you appear to others, unless formal dress is required (funeral, interview, wedding etc).

My choice of clothing when i can afford it would hark back to the ska influenced England days, sure I may look like a royal knobhead to others but I like it.

I'm in loungepants and a Heroes hoodie and will remain in this state until tonight comes and I have to dress 80's for a birthday party in some retro club. God help me I've no options other than to backcomb my beard.

Skin your head, wear 3/4 jeans, braces, a vest and some Dr Martens. You'll be representing the other half of the ska style.

The one I prefer is white shirt, thin tie, suit jacket optional, braces and trousers. Also optional are a pork pie hat or the ill fated fedora. Yes that also sounds like a Jake and Elwood Blues combo because they are very similar.

I debated wearing a Fedora and a raincoat for my costume, but the fedora absolutely looked awful on me. So I risked making the more obvious costume and went with a style instead. I guess this is more in line with cosplay advice than fashion, but you don't need to sacrifice style for accuracy. I'm applying this philosophy as well to my MAGfest costume.

Your personality is much more unattractive than Sam's affinity for hats. Stop being an ass.
