Ok this might be stupid to a lot of you, (ok, probably greater than 99% of you), but I don't really care. It's important to me so I'm posting up about it.
A very nice chap offered to send me a Ryzen cap he got at the latest AMD pre-launch thingy, and I got it the other day and was so excited to open the box and see that glorious Ryzen logo on a hat...and it indeed does look sharp as hell. I like the logo, and it looks damned fine on a hat.
Unfortunately, the hat it's on won't look good on much of anything. It's a mega-trucker snap-back hat that makes me look like Elmer Fudd and my wife won't go out of the house with me wearing it. I know it's a little thing, but it's such an atrociously ugly hat that I just can't get over it. It gives me the first bad vibes about Zen in the last two years, and it honestly worries me. I actually contacted some people over at AMD and asked them to put me in touch with the PR people behind the hat so I can properly educate them on why this was a mistake and how to avoid it in the future.
I really truly can not express my disappointment in words, so I'll let a couple of pictures do the talking and let y'all decide. I can post up more later as I sort of rushed these, but it gives you the idea.
It almost looks decent on Mr. Bigglesworth at least, so that's where it's staying to greet everyone who comes by:
Seriously disappointed with the hat design, it's like the Trump style hat with a Zen logo on it. :s
