You also have to take off your hat in the presence of a lady.

 

because.

hats belong outside.

it's another example of the decay of civility.

folks are just lazy.

 

sorry...my fault....I lost you.


be so kind as to expound a tad.

 

Now, come on. We are asking the why of it. You can't just say "because I said so." What's the basis for the rule besides "in the good ol' days" that justifies a hat ban indoors?

 

That's fuking ridiculous!

 

You asked us what we thought of taking dogs in establishments. Then you tell anybody who's not opposed to it that it's against the rules. Everyone knows that. I would have thought the discussion would be around why you're for or against it, regardless of what the rules say. Surely you didn't expect everyone to say "I'm against it because the rules say no"?

 

Do you shave your head as often as your face?

If you ask management the question in the right way, maybe you can get them to force everyone to wear face nets too.

 

it's common etiquette.

well, it has been for 100's of years.

recently, all you heathens are marginalizing common decency.

wear your hat.

nobody cares anymore.

but, I, and folks like me, will know who you be.

 

I'm thinking if he goes into work wearing nothing but his head net, face net and banana hammock made out of net, change will occur

 

oh.

yes.
rules are rules
city codes are city codes.

but, it still happens.

we know it's wrong and we still let it happen.

my contention is - do all y'all agree it's not the right thing to do?

it's the erosion of civility.

 

<pondering that>

me? not really. I generally don't give a shit about hats.

I was raised to take my hat off inside.

just like the Military teaches you to remove your cover. my Father was a Drill Sargent.

it's just decent.....umm....at least it used to be.

times change.

 

you folks do a REALLY fine job of discussion.

kudos.

it's rare folks can mix it up without getting lathered up.

 

I don't agree with breaking the rules but I also don't agree that dogs shouldn't be allowed to be part of society. A lot of them behave a lot better than a lot of people.

 

My backyard about an hour south of Red Rocks. Crazy how much difference in accumulation there can be

 

no doubt.

and we agree on dogs being unrivaled companions.

they simply don't belong in food joints.

time and a place stuff.

 

How about a compromise like what they did in the "good ol' days" then? A dog section and a no dog section just like smoking used to be.

 

you tried to exit... but kept getting corralled back in.

 

Come spend some time in our sub zero weather for a week straight. I promise, you'll keep the beanie/toque on when you come inside on occasion too!

 

those are fine

And necessary

caps and proper hats are faux pah

 

Now on to the hat topic @nobodyintexas

It is absolutely ridiculous to claim that hats indoors are a representation of an uncivil society. Even while I served I would wear my hat indoors if I was in civies as an act of rebellion towards the pointlessness of the rule.

You're off your rocker making assumptions about who we be because of a hat and where it is worn. Same lines as assuming a man of color is anything other than a man.

What's next, you're going to tell me my flip flops make me uncivilized.

 

What if I'm having a bad hair day? You'd rather look at that than a hat?

 

When you are follically challenged like my self, hats become part of your wardrobe.
The minute i take my hat off, I smash my head of something and live with the painful reminder for a week or two.
Hat stays on indoors.

 

Flip flops? I don't want to see anyone's nasty feet...

 

Oh, spicy!

 

You made it too easy. I HAD to.





They even make Texas flip flops.
