Deciding whether to help .... or NOT !

[bigmtnman]

The young man was really being bothered by the sun in his eyes. He was sitting at a restaurant table facing me. He shifted this way, then that way, squinted, put his hand up to his forehead, but found no relief. He was being blasted by the sunlight coming through a skylight above. Before my brother and I got up to leave, I asked "should we tell him" ? My brother said "no".... and I was relieved. We both knew there was no way it would not be insulting to suggest he turn his hat around.

Sitting at the dinner table with his hat on ?
Shame on him .
That beam of sunlight was probably deliberate ��

It might not have helped anyway.

You're in rare form today.

As soon as you put it on backwards your IQ drops 20 points

I'd have said something!

LOL, saw same thing couple years ago at an outside event, guy had hat on backwards , sun was low so he put his hand up to shield eyes, I laughed at him.

Several years ago I saw a great photo of a young man at a NASCAR race. He was watching the field stream down the straight. He was shielding his eyes from the sun with his hand and had his baseball cap on backwards!

If I was sitting at the dinner table with my hat on when I was a youngster my Dad would've made sure that it woulda hurt just to sit.

When I worked in the schools here, I overheard one kid say to the other, "Hey! If you wear your hat backwards it keeps the sun outta your eyes!" (Different version of the same joke.)

Watching Olympic rowing, the winner had his on correctly, the ones with it backwards struggled

Now that is down right funny. I see younger guys all the time wearing their caps on backwards & wonder about their intelligence. In the military they would suffer their mistakes.

Thank you for that.

My local eatery has hooks under the bar. When I eat at the bar (not acceptable in some cultures) I always hang my hat on a hook.

One day I saw a lady jab her fella in the ribs with her elbow and say, "Now there's a gentleman. He takes his hat off to eat."

I thought, "Hmmm, it's too bad it's so uncommon."

Hate to tell ya but those hooks are for lady's purses. Removing ones hat when sitting down and eating at a table is the polite thing to do. When eating at the bar, you get a pass as you are there to eat alone and stare at yourself in the mirror and, if the mood presents itself DRINK. If I am eating or drinking by myself and someone asks me to take off my hat, that person will be instructed to perform an anatomically impossible act upon his/her self.
