A holy conversation where I inquire about the midwestern vernacular of Mrs. Julie Cross...
|
But I have a burning question that can't
wait...
me: What is a stocking cap? And why would Alex be wearing one?
Julie Cross: you don't know what a stocking cap is?
11:00 AM me: Is it something you wear during a heist?
Julie Cross: that would be panty hose...not that i'm an expert or anything...
11:02 AM me: Is this a midwestern vernacular that I'm not party to?
Julie Cross: apparently so...although I bought a stocking cap in NYC last
January, but maybe they didn't call it that?
11:03 AM what do you call the hats that you wear in the
winter and sometimes they have a sports team logo or something?
me: So we are talking about a beanie or a wool cap
11:05 AM Julie Cross: a beanie is the hat that looks like Yamaka but has a spinny
thing on top
I guess wool cap could work
me: Hahahaha I didn't know that those hats with the spinny things
had a name lol...I would just call them clown caps
11:06 AM Julie Cross: A stocking cap is something Grandma knits for you...people
don't knit in NYC?
11:07 AM although the last one I bought was probably
knitted by children in China...
11:09 AM me: Lol I'm sure people do knit in NYC but I don't know any of
them...I think mine are probably knitted in sweatshops as well as terrible as that
affirmation is...
11:10 AM Julie Cross: now I'm depressed and I'm not even the one in church. so,
thanks. Think I'll go back to writing now.
11:12 AM me: Sorry about that, this chat got dark quick and that has
nothing to do with the fact that the church doesn't have power and is only lit
by candle light...
Later,
M.P.
What about you guys what's the name of the hat you guys wear in the winter months?
GO EAST COAST!!

Hysterical chat! A stocking cap is something I just knitted for my son -- it looks like this: http://www.etsy.com/listing/91312881/legend-of-zelda-skyward-sword-link-hat?ref=cat_list_10
ReplyDeleteAt least, that's what I'd call a stocking hat. Love these chats! Thanks for making me laugh!
So a cone shape is required then? I hadn't really pictured Alex in a cone shaped hat...
DeleteLinks Cap from Zelda is a stocking cap? Who knew?
