Don’t Talk to Strangers

Strange conversation.

Me: (to guy wearing a White Sox fan with hopes of talking about Kevin Youkilis and A.J. Pierzynski) “You’re a White Sox fan?”

Guy: “Huh?”

Me: (regretting dicision to initiate conversation) “You’re a White Sox fan?”

Guy: “No, I just like the colors in the hat.”

Me: (confused) “Oh.”

Guy: “If anything, I’m a Twins fan.”

Some say there are no absolute truths, but Twins fans, absolutely, do NOT wear White Sox caps. That’s just the truth, baby. You wear a White Sox cap, you’re a White Sox fan; and you wear a White Sox cap because you like the colors in the hat, then you need to check into some therapy.

And what’s the deal with ‘the colors in the hat thing’ and what am I missing by not color coordinating my hat choices? Should I be color coordinating my hat choices or should I be content with simply matching my shirts with my slacks and shoes?
