I resemble thatI hate this place and I hate you all. This place has caused me to sell cowboy boots just to buy another damn hat.
I've sold guns I swore I'd never sell just to buy another hat... I don't hunt anymore anyway, so.... and so it goes....I hate this place and I hate you all. This place has caused me to sell cowboy boots just to buy another damn hat.

Does anyone know how to get a rust stain out of a fur felt hat? I tried giving it a naptha bath and gently scrubbing the spot while wet in the naptha but it just won't come out.
Depending on how deep the stain goes, you might be able to sand it out using 2000 grit paper.
We're all enablers here. The only time I've seen anyone talk someone else out of buying a hat here is when a new member shows up seeking advice on whether or not a particular hat is worth the ridiculously inflated price the seller is asking. Even then they'll say, "Don't waste your money...", then offer any number of options that will allow that new member to get a better deal on another hat.One or both of you are enablers .
Really? Is that the only method left?
I can go with "direct." Even the most direct of them have taken their time to assist me. A great group of guys indeed. The only problem is that the more I learn the more I want.
I can completely attest to that and I already enjoy this lounge immensely. Y'all are a pleasure to learn from and interact with. I truly thank you for helping a young aspiring college student find his way in this wonderful brimmed world.
I had another thought just now... the market is currently pretty good for you in terms of vintage millinery blocks. 6 3/4 all over the place -- so if you ever get into the hobby of refurbing your ebay finds, you've typically got a lot of product out there to choose from.
You willI'm not sure if that's something I'll ever get into but I'm sure during my time here I'll probably want to get into it as some point.
thanks for clarifying Bob... I've suffered from it for my entire life and am well aware
it's also very annoying the way people throw around things like ... " oh my god I just have to have a strawberry smoothie every week I'm so OCD" ... uh ... no you're not ... you're just a moron who likes smoothies who knows nothing about OCD
those 3 letters have become like the go to claim for anyone who does anything they think is fkn quirky ... don't get me started
live with it and want to smash your head against the wall because you can't get out of the house due to rituals all the while knowing how absolutely ridiculous it is ... then see how much these idiots want to claim owning it
sorry ... sore subject for me .... carry on
I hate this place and I hate you all. This place has caused me to sell cowboy boots just to buy another damn hat.
I'm in recovery...

You will
It must be tough. I often refer to myself as "OCD," but I realize that my idiosyncrasies are nothing compared to the real thing. If you can walk away from it most times, like me, you don't really have it.
OCD is more irritating and exhausting than anything else ... I'm not complaining ... people have real things to complain about ... I don't believe OCD is one of them
it just irks me sometimes how easily it is thrown around ... I'll stop now before I start sounding more ridiculous than I already do
you and I have more things in common than hats my friend ... hahahahahaJust so you know -- I mentioned OCD in the "What hat" thread earlier and I wasn't being flippant. It actually does take me ten to fifteen minutes to convince myself that my house is secure enough to leave for work. Same for convincing myself the house is safe enough for me to go to sleep.
You have never sounded "ridiculous." "Gruff" maybe... never ridiculous..OCD is more irritating and exhausting than anything else ... I'm not complaining ... people have real things to complain about ... I don't believe OCD is one of them
