The Hat and The Hair: Episode 198

by | Jun 12, 2024 | Hat and Hair | 109 comments

“I will pardon him, I will!” Donald said, red-faced, as he floated in a kiddie-pool of amniotic harvested from some of the classiest pregnant chicks he’d ever tried to impregnate.

“He’s an addict, a junkie fuck,” the hat said. He had sampled the amniotic fluid before Donald had gotten in. Minty garlic, overtones of anise. It reminded him of Uzo. He had shit himself blackout drunk on Ouzo while he was a Greek Fisherman’s hat in the 1930s. The hat shuddered theatrically.

“I will show him the mercy his father denied me,” Donald said grandly, the thick fluid undulating as he gestured. “Abandoned! Hunter has been abandoned!”

“Maybe you can share a cell,” the hair said solemnly, hanging from a golf tournament trophy.

“You’ve been a gloomy fuck since the verdict,” the hat said to him. “Be like Donald. Look at Donald. Does he look worried?”

“You wouldn’t have to be the one that goes with him,” the hair said. “I don’t want to go to prison.” He lifted clumps of hair to count out the reasons, his top concerns. “One, the shampoo will taste all cheap and shitty. Two, if they don’t let him use his Rogaine prescription, I’ll starve to death. Three, I don’t enjoy prison sex as much as you do…”

“That’s such a great album,” the hat interjected.

“What?” the hair asked, fluffing.

“Never mind,” the hat replied.

Donald took a mouthful of amniotic fluid and spat it in a stream straight upward, globs of queasy yellow goo falling around him.

“Second Amendment martyr,” Donald said. “Like my friend, Kyle. I love Kyle. We should find Kyle a job in my next administration.”

“Capitol Policeman?” the hair asked bitterly.

“Director of the FBI?” the hat posed. He lasted a second or so before he started laughing; even the hair barked out a few, and then went into a coughing fit.

“What’s this supposed to be doing for me?” Donald asked. “It’s like snot. I don’t like snot. Green. Snot is green, not like this stuff.”

“That’s just the color it is,” the hair said.

“But what good is it?”

“It tones and firms the skin,” the hair said.

“You don’t want to look like Joe, do you?” the hat asked. “Piss-pants Andes mummy is a terrible look.”

Donald gave him a sour look and then draped a wet washcloth of his eyes.

“Think what Hunter could have been if he had been my son,” Donald said after a minute or so. “He could have been a titan of industry, he could have been a leader of men.”

“You saw the reports. They say he walks around all day in nothing but a jock-strap and has conversions with a giant crack rock,” the hat said.

“Having conversations with inanimate objects?” the hair said deadpan. “Imagine being that crazy.”

“Give me some more amniotic fluid,” the hat said. “It was so bad I sorta want to try it again.”

    Nice. The setting is very Harkonnen.

    • Nephilium

      So who’s going to kick off the Butlerian Jihad?

      (I’m not sure if I should be proud or embarrassed that I spelled that right on the first try).

      • juris imprudent

        Barron as Muad-dib? Hunter as Feyd? Yeah, this could work.

      • rhywun

        Butlerian Jihad

        I always thought that concept was ridiculous but now I’m thinking Frank might have been on to something.

        lol I almost wrote “on something”

      • UnCivilServant

        He was definately on something.

    • Gustave Lytton

      So if this is Dune, then Kyle is Kyle Mcglachlan?

      • Not Adahn

        Kyle MAGAlachlan

      • SugarFree

    “Having conversations with inanimate objects?” the hair said deadpan. “Imagine being that crazy.”

    Inconceivable.

    • Tonio

      The fourth wall has been breached. Heh.

      • juris imprudent

        Dammit, everyone has stolen the comment I wanted to make.

      • Fourscore

        Should be in the non-fiction section.

        Thanks and right before lunch. I’ll wait another hour.

      • ZWAK came for the two-fisted tentacle-fighting, stayed for the crushing existential nihilism.

        I think the fourth wall has been bleached this time.

        Or, is it that dyke who has been breached?

  3. WTF

    Donald said, red-faced, as he floated in a kiddie-pool of amniotic harvested from some of the classiest pregnant chicks he’d ever tried to impregnate.

    Wow, right out of the gate! Not even any warm-up!

  4. Bobarian LMD

    So Trump is Harkonnen and Hunter, rather than Barron is Maud’dib?

    Either way, we’re getting worms.

    • Suthenboy

      “Wither way we are getting worms.”

      I love it.

    • Spudalicious

      Barron is Feyd Rautha. He has bald chicks eating his victims in the dungeons below Mar-a-Lago.

    • ZWAK came for the two-fisted tentacle-fighting, stayed for the crushing existential nihilism.

      The real question is: who is the Beast Rabin?

      • Bobarian LMD

        That’s Frau Doktor Rabban to you.

      • Spudalicious

        Don Jr.?

    “You saw the reports. They say he walks around all day in nothing but a jock-strap and has conversions with a giant crack rock,” the hat said.

    Hat backstory!

  7. Suthenboy

    Dragging over from the dead thread…am I past the time rule?….regarding the tantrums from the globalists about expected petroleum surpluses:

    Cheap, readily available energy gives us prosperity. Prosperity gives individuals options…power over their own lives. Of course the globalists must destroy that. It is where the push for electric cars, the climate change doom, the war on the enlightenment etc. all comes from.

    • trshmnstr

      the war on the enlightenment

      Ehhhh. This postmodern shit us the love child of the enlightenment, nihilism, and animism. It’s not a war against the enlightenment, its the devolution of enlightenment thinking as all of the guardrails have been removed.

      • juris imprudent

        I think of it as a logical consequence. I think that may have been Nietzsche’s take too, if I read him right.

      • slumbrew

        Aristotle was not Belgian, the principle of Buddhism is not “every man for himself”, and the London Underground is not a political movement. Those are all mistakes, Juris. I looked them up.

      • juris imprudent

        Next time I see you, I will dangle you out the window of a high building until you apologize!

      • Bobarian LMD

        Slumbrew gets really hot if you speak russian to him.

      • UnCivilServant

        Spoiler – it will be a ground floor window.

      • slumbrew

        You’re the vulgarian, you fuck!

      • ZWAK came for the two-fisted tentacle-fighting, stayed for the crushing existential nihilism.

        J-J-J-Juris, C-C-C-Coming to Ju-Ju-Judge you!

      • Suthenboy

        Sorry, I dozed off.
        Sounds like grist for endless articles to me.

        *Am using that expression correctly?

    • Fourscore

      Remembering those Sunday drives/picnics after WW2 gas rationing was over. For a little kid what was not to like?

  8. trshmnstr

    “Director of the FBI?” the hat posed. He lasted a second or so before he started laughing; even the hair barked out a few, and then went into a coughing fit.

    I’d pay good money to see this happen.

    • trshmnstr


      “I will pardon him, I will!” Donald said, red-faced, as he floated in a kiddie-pool of amniotic harvested from some of the classiest pregnant chicks he’d ever tried to impregnate.

      I’d pay good money for somebody to use a pickaxe to remove this mental image from my brain

    • Drake

      Just set him loose in DC with a license to kill all the bureaucrats he wants. Issue occasional pardons as needed.

  9. CPRM

    He had shit himself blackout drunk on Ouzo while he was a Greek Fisherman’s hat in the 1930s.

    Must’ve been before he met that talented Austrian painter he partnered with.

    • juris imprudent

      The Hat is too free-spirited to have even impersonated military headgear. Mussolini’s hat – now that would be believable.

      • Evan from Evansville

        I don’t know if a squint is being narrowed or soon a proud man will doff his cap.

        *Squints in internal confusion*

  10. Not Adahn

    “That’s such a great album,”

    No linky?

    In any case, that should have been a Lords of Acid title.

      • Nephilium

        It’s canon now.

        The girlfriend learned the hard way not to ask for authoritative answers on things she wasn’t sure of what the answer would be. Long story short, there was a beer made by a brewer I know that had a story I had attached that it was named after her (“Fram-boyzee” – a raspberry wheat beer). She would get upset every time I told the story because “I didn’t know if it was true.” We were at an event at the brewers current brewery, and he was there, so she made me go through the story, and asked him if it was really named after her.

        His response?

        “There were lots of people who made that mistake, but now it’s yours. I definitely named it after you now.”

      • Timeloose

        “I don’t enjoy prison sex as much as you do”
        “That’s such a great album,”

        I missed the reference, but noticed I was missing something

      • ZWAK came for the two-fisted tentacle-fighting, stayed for the crushing existential nihilism.

        Well, it could have been Pigface doing Suck.

    • robodruid

      Loved the original album.

    • JaimeRoberto (carnitas/spicy salsa)

      I was at the White House last week. Much of it was off limits even though Joe and Dr. Jill were out of town. I suspect Hunter was having a multi-day rager for the start of Pride Month.

        I don’t think JR is a mule for Don Brett. You can’t conceal much volume on a bicycle or under the lycra.

        The lack of white tile makes it look normal to me. For some reason the tile makes it better/worse.

    ‘House of the Dragon’ star Matt Smith corrects interviewer over co-star Emma D’Arcy’s pronouns

    The groveling apology from the reporter is the chef’s kiss at the end of this bit of current-year stupidity.

    • B.P.

      ““Truth Seekers” actor D’Arcy admitted that they felt pressure to “present as a woman” at the beginning of their career to be successful in the industry.”

      Yeah, see, we’re casting for the part of a woman in this production. If you want the job, that’s who you’re going to be.

      ““It wasn’t sustainable, and I stopped pretending,” D’Arcy said in an interview with Them. “And weirdly at that point, I got nominated for best actress for the Golden Globes [thanks to ‘House of the Dragon’], which is like beautifully ironic.””

      Turns out there is a publication called Them.

        She looks angry in every shot. I guess that’s “manly” or something.

    • slumbrew

      I was already planning on continue my streak of not watching that show, no need to bolster that plan.

      • Nephilium

        The girlfriend recently decided to give it a try. I think she made it through the first episode, and that was it.

    • The Other Kevin

      Good on Biden for sticking to his guns. It’s obvious that the reason poor people don’t buy $90k electric cars is because there are no charging stations in the ghetto.

      • Sensei

        Similar to obesity rates and “food deserts”.

      • Nephilium

        But I’ve been hearing that you can get a used Tesla for under $25k now!

      • UnCivilServant

        And then have to pay $50k to replace the dead battery pack?

    • rhywun

      the various regulations seem to serve more as a way to pay off Democratic constituencies—in the form of minority-focused contracting and hiring—at the expense of completing any projects in a timely or cost-effective manner

      No way!

      • Sean

        For compliance with the city of Philly, we had to buy a % of products from minority owned businesses. Their product pricing was always higher than other vendors for the same items.

      • rhywun

        It’s the good kind of racism.

        If you had to buy from them, why would they not charge as much as possible.

      My friend owns a historic house in bucks County (Ben Franklin’s Accountant or some such). He has to keep the interior and exterior historically accurate and can not modify/add on to the structure. He is the right kind of autistic for this kind of stuff and revels in it. After retiring his hobby/job is restoring old woodwork and matching the craftsmanship from the 18-19th century. The man does amazing work, but I think his wife is the saint. He has a Ferrari Testarossa in his garage that he restored from a wreck, various woodworking projects, and a BMW motorcycle from the 1960’s that he must have rebuilt 5 times over.

    He has to keep the interior and exterior historically accurate and can not modify/add on to the structure.

    My parents bought a “historically significant” house in northern New Jersey which had somehow or other escaped being put on the Hysterical Register. It was pretty run down, and they did a ton of work to it. I dread to think what they spent, but it was their money, and that was what they wanted. From the day they bought it people pestered them about getting it designated as an historical treasure. My dad, “That’s the stupidest idea I have ever heard.”

      Your father sounds like a wise man.

    Heaven save me from seeing a man’s name pop up on the patient list of an ob/gyn. *headdesk* The cognitive dissonance is real, yo. I can’t even tell you the name because HIPAA, but it’s ridiculous. Think: Greek mythology.

    • Nephilium

      Maybe she’s there to have her front hole checked for birthing people’s cancer?

      /immediately steps away before he tries to proof read his own sentence.

      • Mojeaux

        This “front hole” business for a cervix. “Front hole” isn’t even anatomically accurate. TF. And never mind this that is also not anatomically accurate for a “non-prostate owner.” No clitoris.

        These people really do hate women.

      • Nephilium

        Mojeaux:

        Since there’s no clitoris, does that mean it was made by the stereotypical dumb male?

      • juris imprudent

        No, they hate themselves and revere the position women now have with 4th wave feminism. Both empowered and victim – all at the same time!

      • Mojeaux

        JI, oh if that were so. It’d be mercenary and grifting, but that’s at least self-aware.

        However, I hang out with TERF Twitter and the shit that these autogynophiles post about women, it’s clear that a) they think they can be better women than women, b) they have a sexual fetish that can get them off both by looking at themselves as women and making other people observe this without the other people’s consent, and c) they would entirely eradicate women if they had their druthers. The amount of hatred and threats of violence they spew toward women is entirely testosterone-driven, which means, ironically, they are not succeeding at actually being women.

        Er, well, I’m not saying they don’t hate themselves. They do. And project that on everyone else.

      • Suthenboy

        Mojeaux: That is a lot of words to say ‘These are some seriously sicko motherfuckers.’

      Narcissus?

      • Mojeaux

        Oooh, good guess! But no, that would mean this individual had some measure of self-awareness. What s/he chose is the exact opposite of self-aware and is either delusional or aspirational.

    • Pine_Tree

      Maybe best-case-scenario is that it’s mother was just an idiot?

    Salon running true to form!

    However, in recent weeks, as the number of bird flu cases have climbed, so have sales of raw milk. This is because numerous Republican public figures have decried what they perceive to be attempts from the government and “Big Milk” to infringe on their right to consume the beverage, regardless of whether it contributes to the human-to-human spread of bird flu. It’s an attitude that closely mimics the party’s approach to the COVID-19 pandemic and the ways in which their members refused to participate in even basic public health and safety measures.

    And just about as useful for stopping transmission too!

    For Republicans, raw milk is the new masking

      Any story about something being “on the rise” without providing solid numbers should be burned, the ashes carefully collected, then fed to a diseased yak who will then shit it out on the author’s desk.

      Wow.

      Those basic public health and safety measures that they now concede were useless? The ones we have known for 100+ years dont work? Those ones?

      • Gustave Lytton

        The persistence of communicable diseases proves handwashing and other supposed sanitation techniques don’t work.

  18. The Late P Brooks

    the ways in which their members refused to participate in even basic public health and safety measures.

    If you told Salon Writer she wouldn’t get pregnant if she hopped around the bed clockwise while wearing a purple nightcap, she’d call you crazy. But it’s just basic sexual hygiene. All the smart people agree.
