Tin Hats...
They are to ward off the microwaves/radiowaves beamed into your head...
In other words, a tinfoil hat is for resisting such attempts...
In FR parlance, conspiracy theories are met with "put on your tinfoil hat" as a way of identifying a truly bizarre theory...
Sheesh. I'm explaining the culture at FR tonight... I need a beer.

I remember seeing a list of FR acronyms, but I see there is a need for a comprehensive guide to FR culture, including inside jokes such as "hugh" for "huge", "series" for "serious", "tinfoil hat", etc. These were new to me too. If you're going to use common Internet misspellings, make sure to use "loose" for "lose", as in "I'm going to loose my mind!" That one drives me crazy, I might really just "loose" my mind.
