The whole backwards hat thing doesn't bother me at all. The backwards crooked thing, that's goofy. It doesn't "bother me" so much as I think it just plain looks stupid.
Never really gave it any thought till now.
The pants thing bugs me, and I tell kids to pull their pants up all the time. Once again, it's just stupid. I tell kids to get a haircut all the time, too. Can't stand to see a young man flicking the hair out of his eyes like a girl.
The hair flicking thing, I gotta admit, bothers me.

"Hey, you kids! Get off of my lawn!"

If anyone thinks I am not credible, or not intelligent because of it, that is your right.

Thank you, Tom.

No offense, Dave.

No offense to anyone, but my biggest problem with baseball caps is the straight bill. I just can't stand it. How anyone can wear the bill of their cap completely straight is beyond me, but to each their own. I have to have my bill bent in a U-shape.

Gurkha. It's how they get their special flavors.

I will wear one backwards on the Motorcycle. The wind with take it away if worn correctly.

junkinduck · 04-27-2010, 09:35 PM

Around home most hats advertise tractors, trucks, or seed. In the fall the Ohio State caps will come out. When welding most wear a Kromer of the brightest loudest fabric they can find with a floppy bill and yes it is turned backward. otherwise unless riding something open such as a bike four wheeler or jeep a cap is worn traditonaly with a grease spot where the thumb and finger adjust the cap. gotta love a farming comunity. and the bill is bent and curved by the user for comfort. My everyday at work cap is hard yellow plastic with stickers and safety goggles.

That is just insane.....why aren't you wearing a helmet?!?! And before you think I haven't ridden a bike in summer heat think again. Be safe out there my friend.

Only do that when riding to the corner store or auto parts store. All side streets

cort · 04-27-2010, 09:46 PM

I wear hats all the time and most of those times they are backwards. I only do it because I am so damn cool

I wouldn't walk in to a job interview wearing one but that's the way I like to wear them. If I lose credibility because of it.....Oh well, I might shed a single tear

MajorCaptSilly · 04-27-2010, 09:49 PM

I thought about it. I just don't care. Let's break it down based on my credibility meter:

Baseball Cap = +0
Backwards Baseball Cap = +0
Pants Down to Your Knees = -1 (safety issue)
Iggy Pop T-shirt = +1
Guitar Pick Necklace = +0 unless you're over 40 then -1
Misfits T-Shirt = +2
Ace Frehley Belt Buckle = +1
Cowboy Boots in the City = -1
Short Skirt = +3 on a woman/ -4 on a man
Blazer w/Leather Patches on the Elbows = -2
Blazer w/Leather Patches on the Elbows Worn w/Ramones T-Shirt = +2
Comb Over = -3
BeDazzled Denim Jacket = -3
Keep on Truckin' DayGlo T-Shirt = +4

Now there's a mental picture I didn't need.

any room for -20 for an Ed Hardy shirt?

floydpink · 04-28-2010, 04:30 PM

If I were smarter, I'd wear a helmet, but quite often ride my motorcycle with a ballcap on backwards so I can wear it when I get where I'm going, I can cover my blown out hair.

After re-reading my own post, I am thinking maybe people who wear their hats backwards might not have common sense.

I don't really care if the person is under 20 or so. Past that you should know what the brim is for!! But in the end... I really don't care how you wear your hat!!
