Whats Happening to me D:

[Wyrd]

I cant stop buying hats. It all started with a purchase of an outback hat, i wanted something durable and cool looking to keep the sun off my face. Then i stumbled across fedora hats, and fell in love with a stylish brown indyesque fedora, and last night i have gone and ordered a bowler hat!

In short i think i am acquiring a love for hats, and vintage ones at that it would seem, i actually dreamt about hats last night ! so i thought why not see if there are like minded people who might help nurture and guide my newfound love, so here i am

Put the mouse down, and slowly back away from ebay.

Welcome to the Lounge, Wyrd! You'll find good information and great company around here.

 

[Mr E Train]

Run like the wind, Wyrd! Get out while you can! There's no hope for us, but maybe you can still escape!

I think that unlike most hobbies, hats are something you can take with you, use in everyday situations, and improve your looks. For example, I like archery and playing video games, but I can't just lug my compound bow or game station all over town. I also like knives and other types of exotic weaponry, like xiphoid retractables, but it wouldn't be smart to carry those around.

A hat is just another piece of clothing, like shoes or a watch or glasses. You can easily incorporate it into you normal routine.

There's also TheFedoraLounge, specifically the "Hats" section, where everyone else has the same problem. Do not worry, you are with friends.

My thoughts exactly, my other hobbies arent really things i can take around with me. for instance i keep tarantulas and snakes haha.

I cant run... the light... its drawing me in..

Quit whining and post some pix of your hats....

And, NO, one cannot have too many hats. :eusa_doh: :eusa_doh: :eusa_doh:

I keep telling my wife that, but she doesn't believe me... and at the moment, I'm not too sure myself. I made the mistake of doing a total of the group Hats in Quicken and it involved waaaayyyy too many digits!

But Wyrd, as Bolt said, welcome to the Obsession!

Cheers,
Tom

I know how you feel! First I started wearing hats, then repairing hats, then rebuilding hats, then making hats!! I have no idea what could be next, but I think I'm beginning to develop a brim just above my ears.:eusa_doh: :eusa_doh: :eusa_doh: :eusa_doh: :eusa_doh:

 

[ScionPI2005]

Wyrd, this is a medical condition that a lot of folks report when first joining the Lounge. There is no known cure yet; but there is hope.

Be forewarned though, The Lounge is not the best support group for BREAKING this addiction...:eusa_doh:

 

[Rick Blaine]

You are among facilitators of afore mentioned behavior, Daniel in the lions' den!

PS- there are NEVER any 7 3/8 or 7 1/2 hats on eBay, never... thought I could save you some time!

Welcome,

Rick
