The flat brimmed baseball hat is said to have originated from Oakland and California.
"The first thing people did when buying a baseball hat in the 90's was bend the brim. Crack and drug dealers would wear glasses and a hat with a straight brim to throw off the stereotypical image" (of a backwards cap or bent baseball cap which was commonly worn in the 1990's)
"I wear these glasses so i can look like a square, but if you see me in a fight with a bear, don't help me nigga, help the bear"
The style generally moved to the gangster rap scene in the mid to late 90's to associate the rappers with drug dealers, wearing clothes straight off the rack (tags included) and being clean cut and fresh.
Post 2005 people without idea of origin wear the hat as the new style, rarely bending the brim in an "on field" cap style, this style is associated with post 1990 born, any social group from club goers to skaters.
Sources: Rapper, Slang inventor and style originator E-40 mentions in a documentary Blueprint of a self made Millionaire, where the style originated.
No gangster rap vidoes before 1994 featured a straight brim hat.

basically the same thing as Cwigger. A usually male adolescent who feels he has the right to boast ignorantly about his hard life, and then runs around acting like a gangster while wearing a bandanna (his flag) and a cheap cowboy hat.
A person who is somehow able to love both Country music and rap/pop music at the same time and still be sane.
"Omg, can you believe that guy! He goes around talking so much crap and then doesn't back it up, then he goes and rocks out to Toby Keith ,, thinkin' he's a badass, what a wigger in a cowboy hat!!"

To let one go when suffering from serious windy-pops. A polite way of admitting your bodies emission, without using foul language.
It is not neccessary to wear a hat to be able to exclaim that you have dropped it.
Can also used by a third person as an accusative
"I must apologise to you all, I dropped my hat as the doors closed."
Or
"Did you drop your hat again?" said Roy
"No", said Dave, through the smoke rising from his smouldering trousers.

(phrase) Sounds innocent enough, but say it with an Irish accent and people might think you've just said "where the fuck's that".
American wearing a fox hat: When I told the folks back home that I was coming to Auchtermuchty, they said, "Wear the fox hat!"

A fake scam startup, even faker than the Theranos Scandle. it's an ed-tech company who claims to teach coding, instead has hoards of fresh pass-out kids who jack around in slack to supress any rising voice or dissent, or write fake reviews every where like linkedin, twitter, facebook and app stores. There CEO is more faker then Elizabeth Holmes of Theranos. Their teachers? Well, they can't even do a "Hello, World".
