    Go in again this time wearing a huge sombrero, or one of those giant nerf cowboy hats, and refuse to take it off. :)

    You can leave your hat on.

    When you are outside a place and by your own assessment of the surroundings and clientele you think "I maybe shouldn't wear a hat in there" - and then you still do - that's rude.

    The owner can make any rule he wants for his place - it's his. I agree he didn't enforce it very well, but be rude and then complain about the rudeness of others is silly.

    Yeah. It's almost as bad as repeatedly getting kicked from a chat room for the same offense and starting a thread to complain about it.

    I try not to let other's behavior influence mine. If someone is rude to you, just keep being nice and friendly. If you are rude back, that isn't going to make them stop being rude. If you are nice, that probably isn't going to stop them from being rude either (most people are just jerks, and there is nothing you can do about it) but at least you haven't sunk to that level.

    Of course, I am not perfect (no really, I swear) and sometimes someone is so aggravating that I come right back at them, but it is not the way I prefer to comport myself.

    No its not, they said maybe i shouldnt wear my hat in there, which shows they were uncertain. They decided to go with wearing it...probably figuring if its not allowed or not wanted someone would POLITELY ask them to remove it. Not the treatment that they recieved.

    This phrase isn't actually true, and is probably the most misused sentence in the entire history of mankind. :)

    In any case, yeah, he shouldn't have been so rude about it and it wouldn't have been a big deal to just ask to remove the hat.

    Not to be rude, but why would you wear a hat into a nice restaurant?

    I'm a longhorn too, and surely we have more collective class than that . . . Or so I thought. ;)

    my mom owns apple cleaners off of mason, some lady came in to pick up her dry cleaning 3 months late, and gave my mom a phone number and name she didnt recognize. she couldnt find the womans clothes... my mom asked if it was dropped off under another name or number?

    the lady screamed at my mom saying, this would never happen if i go to a white dry cleaners (were asian), you people are so stupid. my mom felt awful eventually she found some old clothes that was never picked up and asked "are these yours?" the woman said yes theyre all mine. on the tags were the womans husbands name and number.

    my mom asked her to leave, and to never come back. and to please learn to treat people with respect

    So you're saying it wasn't really Armund's restaurant, and he was just using another name? Interesting...
