When I was younger, a friend's dad used to run a millinery. We'd sometimes hang out there for half an hour after school and then his dad would take us home by car. I was always amused by that oddly specific sign next to the cash register saying something like "one week return policy, except for black or white hats". Every time I saw that sign my curiosity grew so one day I finally asked his das what was up with that specific exclusion. "Simple" he said. "White hats are for weddings, black hats for funerals. People would return them all the time, the day after the ceremony."
