How is this news? Most of us figured out Russiagate was a hoax years ago. Why is it so special when Gabbard says it?

Beware, lest your “style” be so sophisticated that no one knows what you are talking about.

Ha. It was a metallic taste “on the food.”

The hat is for protection, not for consumption.

Thanks for trying to help, though.

Possibly the earliest use of the phrase “or I’ll eat my hat”

Thomas Brydges’ Homer Travestie (a satire of Homer) 1797:
For though we tumble down the wall,And fire their rotten boats and all,I’ll eat my hat, if Jove don’t drop us,Or play some queer rogue’s trick to stop us.
