Your bank will likely not let you in if you're wearing a hat or sunglasses.
"No shoes, no shirt, no service" has also been a thing for as long as convenience stores have been around.
Not that far of a stretch to think this will ultimately extend to face paint.
If you want true anonymity, just wear a motorcyle helmet everywhere. We still don't know who The Stig is.
- jeffreyrogers 8y agoSure, but your bank is a private institution, not the government.
- 8note 8y agois there really a big difference? the government has a right to any data the bank collects about you
- ryanmonroe 8y ago> the government has a right to any data the bank collects about you This is not true in the US. Banks certainly have a right to give any information you've given them to the government though.
- StanislavPetrov 8y agoThere is a huge difference - a monopoly on violence and control over public places.
- Pfhreak 8y agoMy bank doesn't operate any prisons?
- kbenson 8y agoI thought we learned who the first Stig was, out of show, and then they replaced him with someone else. I seem to recall reading that here a few years back.
- soundwave106 8y agoA couple of Stigs actually have been revealed per the Wiki on the character -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Stig https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Stig -- Perry McCarthy (black Stig) and Ben Collins (first white Stig). Both were revealed out of show of course. We don't know who the current Stig is and it's entirely possible in my opinion that there have been "stand in Stigs" as well. Obscuring the face with a tinted-shield racing helmet eliminates a big method people tell others apart. You'd have to rely on clues like height / build instead. Makes it easier to swap out drivers for that character.

- nils-m-holm 8y ago>> "No shoes, no shirt" >That's health code, not appearance. There's no such health code. At least the "shoes" part has been thoroughly researched: http://www.barefooters.org/health-codes-and-osha/ http://www.barefooters.org/health-codes-and-osha/
- emodendroket 8y agoBanks frequently have signs saying you can't wear a hat, sunglasses, or masks, for what I think should be obvious reasons
- jdietrich 8y ago>I've never heard of this. There's a rap record label in the UK called "No Hats No Hoods", because of the ubiquity of that sign in certain parts of London. https://nohatsnohoods.bandcamp.com/ https://nohatsnohoods.bandcamp.com/
- mirimir 8y agoOK, but it's not a thing in the US. I pretty much always wear dark glasses and a big floppy hat in the summer, and have never been challenged at my bank. But then, maybe that's because I'm that guy in that hat ;)
