Ong's Hat was one of the earliest internet-based secret history conspiracy theories created as a piece of collaborative fiction (aka Incunabula) by four core individuals, although the membership propagating the tale changed over time.
Famous quotes containing the word hat:
“A child who is not rigorously instructed in the matter of table manners is a child whose future is being dealt with cavalierly. A person who makes an admirals hat out of linen napkins is not going to be in wild social demand.”
—Fran Lebowitz (20th century)
