They must have just gotten to Lexington, but everyone now thinks they look good in them. You're not Usher. It doesn't look good.

I've wanted one since I saw them in an episode of Workaholics, but they are right when they say it only works if one person in your crew wears one. If everyone wears one it loses its appeal haha.

For my apparel choice I'd have to go with men's peacoats. My sister got me one for X-mas on a great deal from Target and I wear it on certain occasions (i.e. when I'm not dressed in work clothes or look filthy), and it feels like everytime I wear it in public I see a whole bunch of other men wearing theirs too, and we all give each other dirty stares like, "hey brah, why you swagger jackin me brah. Huh? Whatsup? Whatsup whatsup?" lol. Especially in certain places too, like my local Wegmans, and Potomac Mills.

It's hard to look good in a hat, other than a ball cap or a winter knit hat. You pretty much have to be a celebrity, even then it's still a douchey look.

Well you can tell what kind of person they are by what type of hat they're wearing. I only wear hats when it's needed. I.e. if it's so cold outside that my head is cold, and it wasn't a special occasion, I'll rock a beanie. If if I'm going to an early afternoon Redskins game in September and idw the sun in my eyes, I'll wear the safari Redskins hat that I have. I couldn't ever be one of those people that would wear a beanie if it was mid 50's and sunny outside, i.e. the kind of person that would wear one to promote their image instead of using it to as a means to keep warm, etc.

Yeah I don't get the beanie in warm weather thing either. My head gets hot and itchy in about 5 minutes even when it's cold out. That would drive me nuts.

They usually accompany it with a long sleeve undershirt underneath their regular t-shirt (even though it's mid 50's), looking like they stepped right of out of a 1997 N'sync video.

LOL, one of my old coworkers does that. The guy gets constantly made fun of behind his back for wearing it inside offices.

Speaking of which, he includes a picture of himself in his email signatures. I told him that makes him look like a total tool. Not only that, the picture is like 10 years ago, and 30 lbs. ago. Anyone else think that's a douche move?

That image of you and the peacoat is hilarious. I hadn't noticed anyone thinking they're douchey, but now you're going to make me pay extra close attention. :P
