One way you know you're getting old?

Slang passes you by...

In response to a post from me, a young-en told me "You've got too much hat".

Too much hat? I had to mull this over. The subtilities of this generation escape me.

What is too much hat? A room full of hats? A really big hat? WTF is too much hat?

Then one day early this week, I'm waiting to board the metro-link at Union Station.

Up the ramp comes a guy with 3, COUNT em, 3 HATS!. I stared in dis-belief, and fumbled for

my camera phone. Hoping he wouldn't dart off, and leave me with a bigfoot/ufo pic.

He stopped. He took off two hats, apparently to cool his head...I waited, still, and silent.

He looked around, then donned his regal head apparel, preening in all his glory! I got a

We'll see. TBC(3-27 9am)

One of the general rules of Board Nazi-ism, is that their posts are better than yours. This stems from the known fact that they were here first, and automatically are journalisticly superior.

Next thing they know Hartman's spouting wisdom from some unknown poster, and the seething rage across the board is palpable...here is a visual:

That post has been done before, and there were 2 mis-spellings. This board nazi just can't take it anymore!

Well even now the murmurs grow, and the populace tires of board nazi-ism. Soon they will be over thrown and freedom to post and scroll will be excerised by all.

Viva la resistence!
