Damn it people, I was wearing fedoras with clothes that don't match at all way before these assshole posers. Hmph. But I do hope he says "Gotta go fast" several times as he runs from the cops. It would make my life complete for the next few days.

I have no idea what's going on in here and have no knowledge of this inside joke.
But it's still really fucking funny.

It feels... so.... good.
This reminds me of a conversation I had with my sister one night, where somehow the topic of fedoras came up and she said "It means you're a brony". I asked her how they go together at all but she couldn't give me an answer. She just repeated her intial statement that "Brony = Fedora."PsychicTaco115 said:Funny, I was thinking it needed an official endorsement from Euphoria MagazineTheYellowCellPhone said:
And I was surprised it wasn't an MLP shirt...
So I'm still at a loss as to how the two are connected. I suspect somehow hipsters are related but I've yet to be given an actual definition of what a hipster is by pretty much anyone. All I know is that "hipters = bad"(apparently) but not why or even what they are. The internet has not helped either, because there doesn't seem to be one definition but a slew of them that seem only tangentially related.
Damn it, people, terms mean things.

As far as I'm aware, Yahtzee is where it started: an attitude of smug self-satisfaction, witty intellect and general smartassery, traits that the 'euphoric' have taken as aspiration and adopted the image of. He almost never wears the hat anymore.Zak757 said:There is nothing wrong with the fedora if you can make it match the rest of your outfit. Exhibit A, Yahtzee.SaneAmongInsane said:Well I'm basically two out of the three. Suppose I can't wear a nice hat now.PsychicTaco115 said:It's not the fedora itself, it's the wearer... It's a stereotype that an overweight, unhygienic atheist wears it to make themselves seem more classy than they actually areSaneAmongInsane said:
Here are some samples
*sigh* this is why we can have nice things, internet.
Also, most "fedoras" worn by europhic anti-thiest heroes are actually trilbies.
They don't hate fedoras as independent objects.Desert Punk said:
They are mocking the whole Euphoric package. I don't see many people making fun of Indiana Jones. They hate the tosspots, not their hat, but it seems like a lot of those tosspots are inseparable from their fedoras.
When did Fedoras go from Hipsters to Euphoric Atheists? I always equated Fedoras with Hipsters... I guess I'm getting behind on my Tropes :/
Those GIFS and images of the Euphoric Atheist Meme are hilarious though XD
Also, that guy that stole from the Churches is a jerk and needs to be arrested.

That's my bad, I misread. Although I will say I have never actually seen anyone actually hate someone just for wearing a hat. Unless it was an SS Officer's cap, or some sort of hat with a speaker that played Ice Ice Baby on a constant loop or something.Desert Punk said:
Eh, you've got a point, it is pretty silly to blame an article of clothing just because some people act like assholes and try to make said piece of clothing their calling card.Desert Punk said:
Hell, even some of these pictures posted so far of euphoric atheists could probably pull the look off if they just put a modicum of effort and awareness into their look and pictures. Even just a few changes would make some of these pictures less cringe-worthy.
1.) At least try to get the lighting and angle right, a lot of these mocked pictures are taken with half-assed lighting, at strange angles, with people trying way too hard to look cool. Look at the old pictures of people in fedoras, they weren't trying to look like deep thinkers staring out a train window or posing on their bed with a nerf gun in the background, fedoras don't automatically make you look cool no matter what, you have to put at least some effort beyond just a hat to pull a look together.
2.) A lot of these pictures are showcases in how not to mix casual and formal wear. A fedora is a dressier hat than a baseball cap or a visor, if you're going to wear one at least throw on a dress shirt and some slacks, even goofy looking people can pull off a fedora if they at least dress for it. Trying to pair a fedora with a shirt with sonic the hedgehog or Rainbow Dash on it is going to look stupid, its like trying to wear a tuxedo jacket and wearing ripped up cargo pants to go with it.
3.) Fedoras come from an age where the style and size of the hat was tailored for the individual, the type of hat you wore was often determined by the size and shape of your head. A lot of these pictures involve hats that are way too small or large for the people wearing them, not to mention that it's almost always the same type of fedora being worn, (the Trilby), there doesn't seem to be any consideration for style, much less getting a hat that fits properly. Fedoras are not baseball caps that you buy with a one size fits all mentality.
I understand that people want to wear nice hats and don't have the money to get one tailored, or at least adjusted, but for the love of god, at least learn what your proper hat size is before you buy something like a fedora.
As far as style goes, you've got freedom to wear what you want, but a person with a rounder and fatter face is going to look a lot better in something like a porkpie hat, compared to the much more angular trilby cut. Hats used to have a language all their own, like flowers, it's really sort of tragic that such a wide variety of clothing that had a lot of thought put behind them, has given way to just buying things off the rack based on guessing what your actual hat size is with no consideration for style or aesthetics.
The fedora itself is a perfectly valid choice of clothing, but there is a small segment of asshole atheists that have attempted to adopt it as a signature of their movement and "enlightenment". Unfortunately, the fedora isn't really worn very often anymore, so they've kind of succeeded in associating themselves with this style of head wear, for good and for ill.
except for the exception of anime (only ever really like Big O and FLCL) thats more or less me to a T. I really can't stand the jackasses over Xbox Live with their homobphobic/sexist comments to the point that I do say "that's not cool, man"Lionsfan said:Nieroshai said:

I would never call myself a "proud atheist", I'm Agonistic-Theist, I just cant stand to listen to people argue a point I would of made 4 years ago.
EDIT: Perhaps I would of masturbated into my fedora once, but it's fucking nice hat, eh?
It's a textbook case of those who fight monsters, becoming monsters themselves. I would comfortably bet my left testicle (I've got a spare!) that the majority of spiteful little people in this thread would be able to give the stereotype that they're trying so hard to disparage a run for it's money in terms of general hideousness of both mind & appearance.Desert Punk said:
Seriously, that guy is an asshat.
That is a very nice image.StormShaun said:lacktheknack said:
Ah good, although I feel like I should have known better since I know many people on this thread.
And they would be better then what my original thoughts said.
Fear is such a bastard at times.
But I had never heard of this before, well good to know. Good to know the difference too. Now I can join in the fun!
The Fedora never deserved this hate!
That is why we must do this!
Well, yea, I mean, we did that from 718 (The Reconquista) to 1285, regardless of if our belief has to do with gods, or lack of belief in something, from genetic superiority, to superior concepts, war is and has always been caused by a firm belief in something someone else does not believe in.Nieroshai said:
So, I'm not disagreeing with you, but there is nothing else that matters to humanity, I am always right, you are always wrong, and until you beat me down, I will continue to believe I am right and you are wrong. Although this can be a terrible thing, it can lead our race and civilizations to do terrible things, if we didn't have it, you, me and ninety percent of the people here would either not be alive, or sitting in fields, hoping our lords don't draft us into service, plague doesn't kill us, or whatever other horrors awaited our ancestors.
We are an ambitious, tenacious race, and we do horrible things, but without that drive we would be nothing.
