Phantom Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 Guess that depends on your definition of older. I'm 54 so I'm a bit sensitive about that -especially when I see a 20 yr old with his hat on sidewise doing something looney in the left lane while he's talking on the cell phone and driving with his left foot up by the outside rear view mirror. And yes, I wear a ball cap in the winter to help insulate that thin spot that is developing up there. Just can't figure out where all that hair has gone - certaily not to my ears or nose!

It's not about being older and wearing a hat. It has something to do with wearing hats in general. I think they cut off circulation to the old noggin, or something, no matter how young or old you are. But I do think that if you turn the baseball cap backwards (or, for the older segment, if you put a feather in the hatband of your fedora) you suddenly loose about 75 IQ points. I think it works as an antenna for stupidity waves, or something. If you're going bald and want to shield your exposed scalp without looking stupid, may I suggest avoiding hats altogether and using something like, say, aluminum foil? It also shields you from the intruding probes of space aliens. Now, let's talk about octogenarian women who are so tiny as to be invisible inside the car, save for knuckles and lavender hair. How they manage to see over the Powder Blue hood of that 1974 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham is beyond me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
