   In the Northern regions, warmth trumps everything.. if it’s fuggly but allows you to survive walking through a whiteout blizzard , then have to spend 20 minutes at the stove getting the ice rings off your wrists and ankles before you can take your boots and parka off, without any real harm… yeah, it has a beauty all it’s own.

   Is it just me or is Basil in panel looking kind of creepy? Take that picture, edit the text to heavy breathing and have him looking over someone sleeping or tied up. lol

   That “hat” is a touque, or variation there-of. Originally created by Canadians, thus the “wrongness”.

   Panel 2, without captions, needs to be a shirt. For the Love of She-Jesus, it needs to be.

   Are you bringing back the MESS puns, Troutman?

   Also, in defense of the emerald city, I have very rarely seen those hats. Except some people wear them “ironically”, which is even worse than just wearing them.

   Flannel, unfortunately, is much more common.

     Okay, just remembered, this is not Seattle area, so you aren’t actually insinuating people in my hometown wear these. Carry on

   A MESS in MESS? Surely you must be joking!

   Too many buttons?

   …Oh, you’re referring to the overall *presence* of the hat. Very good. Carry on.

   Thank you for that last panel. As a recent southern transplant to MN, I’ve noticed that those hats are ubiquitous here too. I won’t say we’ve not given the country our share of sartorial nightmares, but nothing we’ve done is worse than those hats. Not even the mullet.
