I didn’t hate hats until I came to university and realised how stupid they were. Generally speaking they’re quite practically. After all, who do you trust to keep the sun off your head? You could look like a dork and carry around an inconvenient umbrella OR you could be a kool kat and wear a hat:

It seems that everyone in the joint is wearing a Fedora or a Trilby (I didn’t even know the difference until I wrote this thing). I know I lack fashion sense and whether people wear hats or not is nothing really important, but am I the only person who thinks they look stupid? Especially on an overcast day where the clouds are preparing for good drenching, why do you need a hat?
I realised the true craziness of it all when I saw one guy wearing a top hat.
Some argue that a hat is a good way to express yourself and form an identity. My opinion is that if you need a hat to create an identity for yourself then you don’t really deserve an identity. For crying out loud, man! Who wears a damn top hat outside a Victorian fancy dress party?! Are you an amateur magician?! HAS YOUR BUNNY SUFFOCATED YET?!
There’s one more excuse given for hats, something that goes a little like this:
“I wear it because my hair is so messy.”
Right. So you have a hat, but not a brush? Nice to see you earned your place in tertiary education well.

I'm sorry Reo... this is one step too far!
This must be an Aussie thing. I don't see anyone wearing hats here. Like ever. >.>
I didn't notice it much until I went to uni and everyone was wearing them there. On a sunny day at the beach or something you'll see loads of people with 'normal' hats, but normally most people don't.
I wear hats.
