When you realize the sun can fucking kill you and, if you’re of light complexion, very well may.
It took about a dozen times of burning my pale shaven head to finally succumb. I wish I had started sooner. I have two presently, one with a fold-away cape (like in the picture) to cover the neck and shoulders, and one with a zip-away mosquito net that covers my whole head.
One of us! One of us! Gooble-gobble, gooble-gobble.
The sun hurts you if you leave your skin exposed to it while doing yard work for 2-4 hours every day after work in June/July
This!
I have one of those round straw hats myself 😅
I have one of the big rice paddy hats that are pointed at the top. But I’m not Asian so it looks kinda silly on me, the legitimately Chinese lady across the road wears the same thing when doing her gardening and I just feel wrong wearing it in front of her lol

These things save my pasty white ass at music festivals. After getting skin cancer this year, I’d wear one with a cape to cover my whole body if I could.
You’re just mad that your hat doesn’t have a cape.
Hey, get a load of old no-cape Veedems over here.
I believe it’s called being born white
I get sunburned when exposed for a few minutes, especially the neck. I also have hair loss and sunburn on the head isn’t as fun as it sounds.
holy fucking shit. Brian’s hat just got him in huge trouble in a meeting. Mr Andrews made Brian take off his hat. He said it was distracting. He said if anyone disagreed, he’d let Brian keep the hat on. Nobody said shit dude. Nobody said shit.
The guy at the store said I was the only one who’s pulling out.
You’ve probably got dice in your pocket but you’re too afraid to show anyone
QUIT FUCKIN WITH EM!
I strive for the confidence of the park ranger, in this, shorts, a nice breathable polo shirt, doubled white socks and sunscreen still visible. All while being the chillest guy you know. It is not in the hat itself, but there is power in your ability to wear it.
My dad wears this when he mows the lawn because he’s had a few melanoma spots removed. So… cancer I guess.
Around 40 when you value practicality over style.
I’m 39. Stop scaring me.
I’m 39 and just bought a pair of those trainers that have the individual toes. I love them and Fuck what everyone else thinks.
Anyway you’re not gonna get younger.
I’m 35 and I have one. It’s great for cutting the grass and other outside stuff. Don’t feel like getting crispy on my ears or bald spot.
or bald spot.
You said the quiet part out loud… Take it back!
Trap? What’s the trap? It looks like the superior product to me.
There already huh?
Idk, but I’m fighting it too. I already got the sunhat, and the neck guard is on the horizon
Give in. Come to the dark side
