[OldSkoolFrat]That pinch goes from West, to East, from East to West and back again!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah I pinch that way too !!!

 

[Johnnysan]

As my wife will attest, I pinch. lol

 

[Not-Bogart13]

Guilty. But I'm a "Method Pincher". lol The hats I don't care much about (like my old wool crushers) I practically mash. New hats that I bash myself, I usually pinch with a bit of force until I break it in and like the shape. Then I ease up. I pretty much pinch all my other hats gently, and never tight. I almost cup the front of the crown to put it on, and generally use a second hand on the brim when removing it.

I'm a sinner, I know... but it just "feels right".

OK, so this is like WAAAAAAAAYYYYYYY not PC, but do any Men here, not see the parallel?

Further example: I have a, "Jack," that I am figuring out how to work, operating on a wool, "starter," hat right now.

"Figure it out," on a wool hat, before I get the Art F. love of my life? Adjusting the Scala ready to wear, before the Art F.?

Once I figure out the cleaners, the water proofers, the jacks, holders etc. Then and only then am I ready.

Do you get me?

A Pinch of this and a pinch of that.

Sometimes I pinch, it is an unconscious kind of pinch though not premeditated at all.

Occasionally I "Goose" too! (If you use more than two fingers is it a geese?)
[huh]
Best wishes!

but now you look around these days
and it seems theres a HAT PINCHER CRAZE
I'm a Pincher he's a Pincher she's a Pincher we're a Pincher wouldn't you like to be a Pincher too?
I'm a Pincher he's a Pincher she's a Pincher we're a Pincher wouldn't you like to be a Pincher too?
us pinchers are an interesting breed
an original peak is what we need
ask any pincher and they'll say "only a pinched hat wears that way"
I'm a Pincher he's a Pincher she's a Pincher we're a Pincher wouldn't you like to be a Pincher too?

Not exactly Sing Along with Mitch Miller, but it's OK!

I "pinch" very loosely...just enough to hold the hat, and wouldn't dream of really squinching down on it. One finger on top, one finger and thumb on the side dents.

 

[ideaguy]

Pinchin'? naaa....I just grab da lid wid all 6 fingers and sorta smash it
onto my noggin. If it don't look good I hold onto it wit both mitts and
spin aroun until it settles down. Pinchin? not where we come from...

And the point is?

Profoundly, I must plead that I posted prose of prolixity. I purposely promulgated other prosaic posts purloined from the prominent patrons of this polished phorum while pathetically pretending to possess a point. In passing, I promise to present a more proper punctiliousness in the phuture!

Mea culpa, baby!

...(hey, it was all just in phun.)

 

[J.B.]

Oh, and I positively pinch!

Most marvelous.

Philosophers pinch, too.

Pinching, eh?

Here is a picture of David M. Armstrong and J.J. Smart, two of the most famous philosophers of the past 100 years - both of which happen to be Australians.

Since they are from Australia, check out this well pinched Akubra on Armstrong's head...

(Just thought I'd share).

Ouch!

Best,

Matt
