Hat

Hat: in the classy days called headgarment or nowadays known as head gear worn to impress and/or distract people from other bodily parts keeping "the folk" or "the plebs" at an agreeable distance. Nowadays a few creative people wear a mixture of assorted hats with wich they are judge& jury (judge and jury is an expression, a book, a restaurant and i'm sure a whole bunch of other things) tax avoider, landowner, and boss of the plaines. Some say a career in the theatre would haven been appropriate for "hats" so we can enjoy and keep an eye on them at the same time, some think the political arena resembles a lot like theatre. To call somebody a "hat" can imply, that you're impressed by a persons acting skills, or as an offensive remark, it depends on the intonation.
