I own a pith helmet.

Not for any particular reason, although I did wear it for Halloween once. That was just an excuse to acquire the pith helmet, I admit. I just wanted a pith helmet. Halloween aside, events where I dare actually wear it have been depressingly rare. I do wish hats in general would come back into style, besides the distressingly popular baseball cap. I do not expect to live long enough for hats to come back, alas.

So I own a pith helmet, just to own a pith helmet.

I told you I was mad.
