I'm asking because I have this gigantic slang dictionary (Eric Partridge!) that I occasionally pull out for lols, and I support this sort of purchase.

Amanda, i like the kangol better, but i don't know if it would cover your ears. i think you should get a purple hat in any case!
― horseshoe, Wednesday, 7 September 2011 02:56 (thirteen years ago) link
didn't mean to hijack yr "should i buy this" question, la lechera! you would most likely look supercute in that hat fwiw

otm
i think the kangol is the only realistic option if i am being totally honest with myself
no hijack, buy the book if you can do something fun with it

thrilled to see the village hat shop is still around. I bought a fedora from them in high school when I thought I was really into swing music and the roaring 20s!― dayo, Tuesday, September 6, 2011 4:49 PM (1 hour ago) Bookmark Suggest Ban Permalink

for some reason, all 3 people i've mentioned this to have thought that buying it would be the stupidest thing in the entire fucking world
here's what bruce said about it in Applied Cryptography:
The meat of the book is the "Table of Random Digits." It lists them in five-digit groups -- "10097 32533 76520 13586 ..." -- 50 on a line and 50 lines on a page. The table goes on for 400 pages and, except for a particularly racy section on page 283 which reads "69696," makes for a boring read.

bright yellow rain slicker ... i am concerned that 90% PVC / 10% poly will just be way too unbreathable, especially as all my other jackets are waxed cotton or goretex.

i do have a 100% nylon coach jacket that is not too bad with shorts and a shirt.
how can you tell how "sweaty" a synthetic is going to be? does it have to do at all with the variations in the density of the "weave" or is it just choice of material?
― mr peabody (moonship journey to baja), Sunday, 11 September 2011 16:46 (thirteen years ago) link
I have a raincoat like that and it is...not breathable. Good for walking the dogs in the rain, though.
― some lady (La Lechera), Sunday, 11 September 2011 17:09 (thirteen years ago) link
supposedly it has a "breathable lining". maybe i just need to go XL so that there's tons of air circulation. i <3 the color so much.
― mr peabody (moonship journey to baja), Sunday, 11 September 2011 17:19 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah, I would imagine that a raincoat like this made now would be superior to the 80s version that I am still wearing around. Mine is green and has whales on the inside.
― some lady (La Lechera), Sunday, 11 September 2011 17:21 (thirteen years ago) link
i think breathable lining is just a layer of mesh? i've had that before on rain jacket and it did nothing to help the breathability.

i can't look at that rue la la link.
you can't argue with a classic two-button navy jacket, but what's the material? is it about $300?
― mr peabody (moonship journey to baja), Monday, 12 September 2011 14:21 (thirteen years ago) link
single pleat, pin dot medium weight wool
― elmo argonaut, Monday, 12 September 2011 14:25 (thirteen years ago) link
$350, marked down from $895 msrp -- i guess that is more than %50 off duh

No. Gang-style vests not a good look unless you actually have your own, with patches & stuff that you started on when you were 14.
