No, social norms are the things people like me voluntarily abide by to keep people like you from killing themselves out of frustration with our otherwise dissimilar choices.
I gotta agree with zig on this one, IMO the only time it's acceptable to wear a hat indoors is if you're by yourself and don't intend to talk to anybody.
Look at me I'm so edgy I wear hats inside.

Who the fuck cares what someone else is doing in the post office that isn't directly effecting anyone else? You don't talk on the phone in line, you don't jerk your dick off when ordering food at the diner, and you don't blow your nose while you are at McDonalds, but who the fuck cares about others apparel? Its not 1948 anymore grandpa.

I don't own a hat.
But if i did, and i forgot to take it off one day, it's a shame that theres people who would assume i was being wilfully disrespectful. just seems like such a horrible starting point for human interaction. why does an interaction have to start with a judgement? Because of the social norm associated with one's appearance?
Such a shame.

You aren't in NJ either, but you can wear a hat if you are jewish or muslim I believe.

I can't wear my hat in the super market? You know it's cold in the frozen foods section.

I'm pretty sure the people at the DMV closest to me are barred out half the time. Everything from the slowed down/slurred speech to the way they move fits perfectly. It would be amusing if the waits weren't so long.

So, you can have a license plate saying you worship a long-dead person or a fictional god, but not that you don't believe in god?

Man, that would have been sweet! You could've gotten a huge rise out of me by pushing my buttons.

You wouldn't get a rise out of me because I am a gentleman. I would simply set a good example and hope you learned from it.

What's truly immature is ignoring widely accepted social norms and choosing to do whatever you want, as if you know everything and everyone else is wrong. I can remember acting like that... when I was 17.

there was a poll done that Dr. Lawrence Krauss often points to in his public speeches that says atheists are less trusted than rapists.
who would you trust more, someone who doesn't believe in your faith, or someone who has been known to forcibly fuck someone
