dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Ah, that explains why they have that look. It's always interesting to see how people manage to turn a thing (fedora) into something new by just modifying it slighty. You don't see hats around as much nowadays anymore too, crazy to think of how common they were before cars took over.

I think at first it was practicality. Everyone wore a fedora all the time, but people in mechanical trades would invert them then cut off the brim so it didn't get caught in machinery. Then kids started imitating the types of hats their dads were wearing.
