The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard

[Jerekson]

The pimp thing gets really old really fast.

 

[metropd]

Pimp in the context that they use it in means playboy or a a ladies man. Try not to take it literally and it might help. I agree though I would not want to be called that. Luckily I haven't got a stupid comment regarding my hats in almost 2 years.

 

[Jerekson]

I think taking it literally is hardly the problem...

 

[metropd]

Ahh I get it(I think).....well then some people talk to hear themselves talk, I guess it has alot more to do with them than your(proverbial) hat.

I had a funny comment today. I was wearing my Silver Belly OR with a fedora bash. I had on a plaid shirt and jeans. While fueling up at the truck stop. I burn diesel. I noticed two kids staring at me. They were acting really nervous. Eventually they sped away and promptly hit a telephone pole. Dinged their car a bit. There happened to be a police officer right on the other side of the building. Long story made short. The kids had 'contraband substances' in their vehicle. I over heard them commenting on 'that undercover detective in the black Ford.'

Really cracked me up.

No pun intended.

Fight crime, wear a hat!

That's great, LEUII!

Cowboy Hat

A woman at work looks at my hat and says " That is one screwed up cowboy hat". I was wearing my JPD Raider. [huh]

She might have had a valid point if you were wearing your recently altered black hat. But even then, "screwed up" would need replacing with "awesomised".

That is absolutely hilarious.
Makes you wonder if they were on said 'contraband substances' at the time...

 

[LEUII]

They sure acted like it.

I find the pimp comment generally distasteful, but I especially dislike it when I'm walking around with my girlfriend.

"Are you making advances toward my hat?"

Now that would just be wrong. :eusa_doh:
Hit them with your pimp cane.

If someday I get, "You look like Freddy Krueger", I'll move to Antarctica or something.

I get the occasional pimp comment. I don't take the comment literally. I know it is meant as a compliment. However, I think it's one of those words that has such a negative connotation that it's difficult for me to see it as positive.

It's like those who use the "N" word. The argument I've heard from people who use it is that they are taking ownership of the word, but it's still a disgusting word that people would be better off not using at all.

 

[Dinerman]

I don't know whether to take this as a compliment or what, but it was definitely a comment.

Today I got: "Shoo', that son's old school"

Reply: Wink and say "Yeah, in your dreams". lol

I went up to the Baltimore Comicon for a couple of hours. I wore some vintage clothing including an old Knox fedora, one of my Hollywood jackets and a tie. I was also wearing a pair of (non-vintage) higher waisted trousers.

As I was walking in two guys were off to the side of the building and one asked "Did you see anyone dressed up yet?" The other guy responded "Yea, so far I've seen two Imperial Stormtroopers, one Darth Vader, and a guy in a period outfit." I assumed he was talking about me. Either way, I got a good laugh out of his remark.

 

[Mid-fogey]

Oh, where do...

...I start? I bought my first fedora over 30 years ago and have heard it all. I've heard every gangster/movie/TV/book reference mentioned here.

I hear some strange things, usually very early in the morning at WalMart where I sometimes stop at 6:00 am on the way to work. The other day I had what on I call a "full up." That is: coat and (bow) tie, super shine on the shoes and fedora. A man behind me in the check out line said: "wow, I feel really underdressed."

I said: "Dude it's 6 am in WalMart. How could you possibly feel underdressed? There are 10,000 guys dressed like you for every guy dressed like me."
