Reddit mentions: The best men costume headwear

Mischief Managed!


The First

Since I don't drink, my experience with wine is limited, but as a mother I have quite a lot of experience with small creatures who like to whine. We all know the only way to keep these little creatures (otherwise known as children) from excessive whining is to keep them distracted and entertained.


The Second

How is it that muggles can keep their homes clean without magic or house elves? I can't even think about the hard work it must take to keep a tidy home without magic, using nothing but a basic broom! And did you know they only use brooms for cleaning? Imagine! If I couldn't lift off the ground on my broom, I don't know what I'd do! How would I travel?! Surely those large metal boxes they put up in the sky can't be safe! How do they stay in the air without magic?! I just don't know how I'd live if I were a muggle.


The Third

Of all the things that people have put on their heads throughout history, only the hat lived on as the one piece of attire universally accepted to protect the tops of heads. There was a short period of time between 1622 and 1624 in which wizards commonly wore ornamental bonsai trees atop their heads, but this fad inevitably led to a large increase in bee stings during the spring and summer months when bees became interested pollinating the head wear. And so, as most fads do, the bonsai look faded out of popularity. Only the hat as remained an actively appropriate way to address the need to cover the top of one's head. There have been many famous hats throughout time, including the bowling bowler that was often seen resting atop the head of the wizard known as Maginny McMulnery, when it was not bowling perfect games. Another was the incredibly well-known Lost Diadem of Ravenclaw, though many argue that the diadem is not qualified as a hat, but rather an item of jewelry. Others argue that it's stylistic qualities make no difference, as it's use is what is important, though most of those who argue are tuned out by others who don't much care about the semantics regarding long-lost treasures that will never be found again. The most famous of all hats, however, is inarguably the Hogwarts Sorting Hat which has sorted students into their Houses at Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry since it's inception.


The Fourth

If you are in need of any book, there is only one place you need look. The Hogwarts Library will always have what you need.... Unless you are looking for information about horcruxes, in which case you should stop asking questions and get back to your studies.


The Fifth

When traveling, it is important to pack smartly. How many things can you fit in your trunk, and will there be room for everything you'll need? Sometimes, it is simply impossible to bring every item on your list in just one trunk, but two or three trunks is just too much to carry when passing through muggle areas where magic use is restricted. That's why some witches and wizards decide to use an Undetectable Extension charm. This charm allows your trunk or bag to extend within, so that you can fit a nearly infinite amount of items in a finite space. This charm leaves items bigger on the inside, allowing for a much easier and hassle-free travel experience.


The Bonus

Any superhero knows that a cape is not a complete disguise. Well, any hero besides superman. If you're going to wear a cape, you've also got to have a mask. It's probably best if the mask has eye holes, though...


Edit!!! Oh, I forgot to say why I will NEED these items! The first is self-explanatory, I'll need to keep the whining to a minimum in order to focus on the work I'm assigned, especially if I take potions. You know Snape is going to assign at least a dozen parchments worth of writing every week. The second is what I'll need to use in order to get across the Atlantic to attend Hogwarts! No matter how much I prefer traveling by broom, I can't risk such a long flight alone. The third is something all students will need, because without the sorting hat it would be impossible to be sorted into our houses! The fourth is, of course, incredibly important. I'm sure I'll be frequenting the Hogwarts Library throughout my time there. The fifth will be the very first thing I use, because without my trunk being bigger on the inside they'll never even let me onto the plane! I'd have way too many bags and trunks without that charm. And of course, as for the bonus, I'll need that mask in order to sleep, because my dorm mates are quite rowdy and I expect them to be using magic well into the evening most nights. Along with the eye mask, I'll also be packing several pairs of ear plugs!

I am also very, very fair skinned. I brought a lot of sunscreen, but it wasn't as necessary as I thought.

• 1. I am mostly under shade structures during the day, and most active in late afternoon/evening and at night. Most people are like this for heat reasons. [I also work bike repair during days and was therefor under shadecover]
     
     
• 2. I wear sleeves. some UV sleeves from Amazon, like these. Sunscreen can make you "sticky" and then you just get dustier. Also, you don't have to worry about your sleeves "wearing off". It's easier to pair a set of sleeves with a t-shirt or top... you can remove them if you want, and they aren't always attached to your outfit if you go inside somewhere.
     
     
• 3. There is so much dust in the air usually, I think it helps block a lot of the sun/UV.
     
     
• 4. I brought a cheap gas station wide-brim hat. I like the fisherman style, woven type. They breath well. I dyed mine with cheap dies so it is rainbow colored. This protects my upper face/neck.
     
     
• 5. I wear a cool facemask/cover most of the day for dust reasons... and this protected my lower face. I found this type of mask on Etsy years ago, and it's awesome. Easy to drink through for a sip, and you can leave it open if you need to for heat without exposing your face to the sun. I wear mine everywhere on Playa.
     
     
• 6. I wore a kilt, so I also brought a bunch of knee-high socks to protect my legs.
     
     Basically, Sunscreen is great, and I recommend you bring some. But layers and coverings should work better. If you grease up with lotion, you just turn into a caked-mess of playa dust. I recommend the spray-on sport kind that instantly dries, although it feels a little like you're wearing a coat of plastic.

Mischief Managed!

So I decided to order my school supplies from a "reputable" magical supply store. I can not believe what happened. So you order by answering riddles and I thought that would ensure that everyone's orders are correct, I guess not....

Riddle the First-Wine or Wine Goblet

Either way, I wonder if this is even considered to be appropriate [drink wear] (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004HZR94O/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=25MSIGOHKX8AU&coliid=I1GX53XQYP0JML&psc=1) in the Great Hall of the RAOA school of magic, merriment and Mischief.

Riddle the Second- Broom

I don't know what they were thinking, I asked for a Firebolt, I will never be able to fly with these. I thought maybe they were just tiny for shipping purposes, but I've tried to use Engorgio to make them bigger, but nothing happens.

Riddle the Third- Hat

I swear I ordered a standard witch's hat. I am not sure how they heard wicker hat.

Riddle the Fourth- Book

They told me that this is one of the most important books of knowledge of our times and I wouldn't be able to pass my muggle studies with out it

Riddle the Fifth- Trunk

I don't even know what to say about this. How am I suppose to get all my supplies/clothes to school in these? I mean sure if I was a guy I am sure they would be pretty comfortable. Note to self, next time use the word Luggage Trunk.

Bonus Riddle- Cape

And last but not least, I just wanted a simple black cape. It's black alright, but unless I am going to be giving haircuts in my common room, I have no idea what to do with this.

That is the last time I order anything from Mundungus Fletcher's Magic Emporium.

Duh! Who doesn't!?

OK, NSFW: Most of it. Haha! Huge thing for Garterbelts and stockings! Seriously! LOVE THEM! Especially this one, this one, or this one. I have to get this for my GF. Looks like fun. Also, the classic school girls outfit is never a bad choice! Special mention for the tail and kitten outfit! HOT!!

Doctor Who: I love the Van Gogh beach towel and throw! Then of course theres the Tee, Tee, Tee, Tee, Tee, Tee, Tee, Tee, Tee, Tee, Long sleve Tee, Hoodie, bath robe, Hat, and scarf.

But my FAVOURITE thing in the list is THIS! I want this so bad! Must try and find it on the UK Amazon!

alright it might not seem like much of the same thing but coming from being a tour guide there is one thing I know.. Paperwork. I had a TON of paperwork as a tour guide and in your job.. you will also... trust me when I say.. even though you won't be on the road you will need THIS

I even conferred with my wife who works in a ton of offices and she agrees :p

as for what I want well honestly Bacon sorta... however if you don't have prime then

I'd look really cool adding this new Top hat to my collection :D

Yes, yes... I'm a guy. "It's not for me... blah blah blah." But if I win I'll do a [Gifted] post with me wearing the item XD This lovely cosplayable hat! Kitten mittens :3

"Home of the original kitten mittens"

Finn from Adventure Time~

He's totally awesome and loves to have fun. I know he's a cartoon character but he's still awesome

Finn hat!

Boom! Roasted

hahahaah I sent this image to my two best friends as what I was ordering to wear to my baby shower and they were trying to be super supportive thinking I was serious and then I sent them this and said I thought this accessory would go well https://www.amazon.com/elope-U8730-T-Rex-Dinosaur-Hat/dp/B001F29HR4/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1474378164&sr=8-2&keywords=dinosaur+hat

I wouldn't buy an expensive costume. If that is mandatory for the wedding party, you can tell him that being in the wedding party simply won't work for you, but you're looking forward to attending as a guest. For a guy, you can easily wear dark slacks, a white shirt with the sleeves rolled up, and a vest- you probably have those things already. If not, thrift store should cost no more than $10 total. Here's a hat and goggles for $8.50. Done. As far as providing drinks AND tipping the bartender, I say you should make it an either/or. And definitely don't feel the need to go crazy overboard with a contribution- a nice six pack or a bottle of wine is fine. Of course, you are absolutely not required to do even this much; these are just a few ideas to limit the continued financial impact on you and still allow you to participate. If you're so annoyed that you don't even want to do that, that's fair too.

Rally/protest/direct-action/civil-disobedience WHERE it happens...

They had a useless TSA protest in NYC, but it was at Union Square in the lower east-side. It really needed to be in LaGuardia or JFK. Conscientious objectors need to appear en masse in the airport terminals.

As of right now, the only regular protests in airports are in Alaska. Aside from that, it's just been a handful of random naked and half-naked folks making a scene at security.

This Thanksgiving, we should bring peaceful, non-violent conscientious objection to airports across the nation. Groups can go in dressed as limo drivers, wearing caps ala Bruno Kirby and stand alongside security, while holding cardboard signs - the way real limo drivers do when picking people up (or at least how they did before cellphones).

These signs, instead of having the names of returning travelers written on them, would have ideas we are looking to have return: FREEDOM, DIGNITY, 4TH AMENDMENT RIGHTS.

Time to lay your body upon the wheels and upon the levers of the machine. Bitching on Facebook and Reddit no longer suffices.

Here's the space suit and helmet lol

I'll be honest I've worn it like 3 different Halloweens 😄

So sorry, dude. Skittles is a great name. My first dog, Gizzy, died in November 2011 while I was away at college. I rescued my new dog, Tali'Zorah, in January of this year, though, so she keeps the sads away. I know those feels, I'm here if you need to talk.

My list doesnt have too many cheap things left due to todays war, so giftcards are always an option. But a silly little gift like this would make the Pokémon master inside of me super giddy and stuff.


RIP Skittles. I bet you were a super cool dog.

I know it's not what you are looking for but I love this hat for gardening. http://www.amazon.com/Jacobson-Hat-Company-Coolie/dp/B001UK7U2A

Bonus is it doesn't touch my skin on my forehead and get all sweaty and oily.

My boyfriend needs this stupid hat because it will convince him to join this subreddit. Also because he's a really great person and I love him dearly!

My favorite quote is from Goblet of Fire!

>"People change in the maze. Oh, find the cup if you can. But be very wary; you could just lose yourselves along the way." - Dumbledore

Imperio! :O I think the sorting hat is the only HP related item I have at the moment, but I'd love anything! Thanks for the contest!

A coolie hat can save the day. The wide brim keeps that blazing festival sun off your face and neck (and maybe a shoulder or two), plus the internal headband support means there's a good flow of air around your dome.

The style stands out in the crowd too. It also draws looks from the neighbors while I'm mowing the lawn.

Here's my idea for Halloween this year: Super Storm Troopers. Star Wars just came out and Super Troopers 2 is this summer. Should be easily recognizable for laughs.
Storm Troopers body:
Costume Or
Onesie

Super Troopers head:
Hat
Sunglasses
Bring Your Own Mustache

Best to play it safe and get some of these as well.

Thanks man I wish I was that talented, I think these are what I picked up: https://www.amazon.com/elope-Costume-Accessory-Adjustable-Headband/dp/B00IOXLFUY/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1538278369&sr=8-3&keywords=rams+horns

There are some pretty cool squid hats on Amazon, too. I'll see if I can find them and link them.

Edit: I think these may be it: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00B5HW6W2/

I need these so that I may frolic in the fields without judgement. You see, when I frolic I get looks like "Why is that person frolicing, that's weird." But if you see someone wearing huge ram horns frolicing in a field, you say "Why is that person wearing ram horns? That's weird" and you forget to judge them for the frolicing!

Thus I shall be free to prance and skip at my leisure.

Can't find the actual hat but I found you one that's even more hilarious looking: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00B5HW6W2/ref=pd_aw_lpo_193_bs_img_1/147-1332002-4404654?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=2KED2G7B3VRF89GK3X6K

You still didn't answer my question about whether the Jets are better than the Leafs.

I know you need help with obvious questions because logic and facts don't apply to you but no you can't, you would probably be better off with this anyway.

Maybe try searching for linen cloak or medieval cloak then modify it if needed? These look promising but I haven’t tried the site before.

https://www.medievalcollectibles.com/product/gora-canvas-cloak/

Helmets are a pain to make which is why they’re pricy. Consider buying something similar then modifying it. Cheap Halloween props are easy to modify and they’ll be a lot at thrift stores this time of year. This one looks promising.

*Not sure why they are calling it "Quidditch Helmet" now???

You definitely need this.And I need something flowily mysterious!

Nope! You get a nice, pretty little letter with my name on it every time I say something. Go look at what I wrote, I added a bit more for your sake, to help you understand the way things work around here. By the way, don't make the assumption that people don't have alt. accounts. This is mine. I could wave my e-weiner about 20 times bigger than yours, but I don't because I'm not a fucking child.

Edit: This is for you

It looks like this hat and a matching green bodysuit

Finn's Hat

A Jake beanie

Literally took two seconds. Just go to Amazon or eBay next time.
