Hmm, country singer... I've got to admit your attire isn't a world apart from that of James Taylor's here:

Sort of... I know, not the same thing.

I've had my share of Indiana Jones comments as well, for that matter. Three days ago in fact, I got two for basically dressing very similarly; leather jacket, brown fedora, white shirt, khakis, etc... They are almost always complimentary though, people like to see me wearing what I do, I suppose, and it probably just so happens to remind them of one of their favorite film characters. I have yet to get the same comment wearing my grey homburg though, that got me a few compliments, but more about my own individual style.

I always get "hey mobster," or "what's up G-Man," or "Hey Capone." Then again I live in Chicago!

Don't get much stranger than that comment....

I've been wearing hats since 2004 and never get any comments, which is actually fine with me. I live in Georgia and my wife and I just spent Saturday through Monday in New York City visiting one of our daughters. We walked the streets, rode the subway, and roamed from 150th street to Soho to Brooklyn. I wore my dark gray Akubra Sydney and got not one comment. Of course, in New York City, I could have been a three armed, orange Martian wearing a beanie and a Superman cape and nobody would have looked twice.

Not only that, but if you had a cup on the ground you could have gotten change from the passersby AND maybe even some government subsidies for your "performance art"!!

While I admit it's not disimilar, I hardly think of him as the archetype of a country singer... Besides the fact that I *LIKE* country music, and I've never heard of him. This is more my view of country singer

LOL. That's for sure.

lolIt would be more strange if he did like relish in movies.

 

[RBH]

When I go to movies... I like relish on my hot dog.

Rather than having another "dumb comments" thread, which would also be 99% Indy/gangster whining, I like the idea of a "strange comments" thread.

Welcome to the non-sequitur hat thread.

You have NEVER heard of James Taylor? He's only been putting out hits since 1969 and he lives in the Chapel Hill area up your way WOW

 

[MarkD]

Doesn't seem so strange to me, I've always relished the movies...

 

[Chinaski]

It seems the thread topic may be changing...we're really in a PICKLE now...

 

[Mobile Vulgus]

Oh, you're just gherkin us around.
