It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I didn't read the hat article... but are men still supposed to take off their hats when talking to women?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I think it's polite to let them see your eyes.

I was out last week with my brother, SiL and nephew. My nephew was arguing that the restaurant we were in (a chain) didn't qualify as a place where you had to take off your hat to eat.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

In college I went with a friend of mine to a bar after a show. He had grey in his hair from the show and was wearing a baseball cap, and they didn't ask him to take it off, they asked him to turn it around backwards. I always thought that was weird.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I haven't encountered many men wearing hats that obscure their eyes.

I've gotten into at least one argument with my father about baseball caps at restaurants. It's surprising to me that it was even an issue, but he has become pretty indulgent of his comforts (he was cold) in his old age. I thought it was unacceptable.

Does this guy ever take his hat off?

Those hat wearers better not go into a bar on a Navy base. When they find out they're going to have to buy a round for everyone in the bar, they'll get to taking it off pretty damn fast.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Had my last session this morning with my analyst before he takes his two-week vacation. Could have gone better.

I thought women could wear hats indoors because they were required to keep their heads covered in church and that confused the issue. You'd typically still put a hat on as you went out and take it off as you came in, seems like. Though I am basing this assertion on vague memories of female behavior in novels and movies that I cannot cite.
