Im sorry, that was a terrible thing to say.

Well... they certainly ARE fashionable! But there are other types hats / rags out there that might serve the purpose with more humility... For instance, how about a big lettuce leaf?

No, I am imagining (in my mind) that the sombrero's are biker caps. Try that.
