    "What's with the hat?" A cautionary tale...

    Personally, my issue would have been wearing the hat inside. Hat hair is something that happens when you wear hats, wearing them inside is bad etiquette. Just my 2cents.

    What pens are we carrying today?

    My response to this would be because they want to and they can. If that's not for you great, but if it make them happy and they can afford it, the. They should do so because it makes them happy. Do all these people on this forum really need more than one hat, after all you can only wear one...

    What pens are we carrying today?

    I have had a cross in my pocket since I was in 8th grade so that might be why. I can't remember the style of cross fountain I used to have, but I do remember it wasn't very smooth, is the ATX better?

    What pens are we carrying today?
