    Bitch be trippin' hats

  2. Shawn Handyside on December 5th, 2010 5:40 pm

    And that's how I got my Unusual Sober Stuntsman that lets me poop confetti!

  3. Dr. Furry on December 5th, 2010 5:49 pm

    and that's what trade servers are for, to separate trade fortress from team fortress. EQUALITY THROUGH SEGREGATION

  5. Twilizer on December 5th, 2010 5:53 pm

    Who wants the sober stuntman anymore, everyone knows it's all about the Chieftan's Challenge!

  6. Paulrus-Keaton? on December 5th, 2010 5:54 pm

    Lies. You slept with a hooker clown and got a nasty STD.

  7. Not_anon on December 5th, 2010 6:02 pm

    This is sad because its true. All I do with hats is delete them or give them for something like an uber-saw.

    I just want to play the game, do you have any idea how boring it is to be the only one playing.

    Oh by the way im trading some hats for hats.

  8. YourPalHal on December 5th, 2010 6:11 pm

    It's like crack

  9. bastardsweater on December 5th, 2010 6:11 pm

    as a protest against this hat-mania, I forged all of my hats into scrap metal.
    and threw them away.

  10. SS4FireFox on December 5th, 2010 6:14 pm

    a FLAMING chieftain's challenge.
    your regular one is invalid

  11. Grammar Nazi Ghost on December 5th, 2010 6:27 pm

    Remember when this game was about shooting people?

  12. DM1293 on December 5th, 2010 6:28 pm

    I TRADE HAT 4 PRUSSIAN PICKELHAUBE PLZ

  13. DM1293 on December 5th, 2010 6:29 pm

    Bitch be trippin' OVER hats.

  14. DM1293 on December 5th, 2010 6:30 pm

    TOLERANCE: It involves you GTFO..

  15. spplmj on December 5th, 2010 6:31 pm

    Someone want to explain this comic to me. I'd try to figure it out myself but I'm too busy looking at my awesome hat.

  16. DrRickRollins on December 5th, 2010 6:31 pm

    Engie: Nope.avi!

    Who has a safe and sound?
    I'll trade a vintage bonk helm for one!!!!!!1111!!!!

  17. Grammar Nazi Ghost on December 5th, 2010 6:33 pm

    Now I'm glad that I own TF2 on the 360.

    We don't get stupid hats and updates. We just kill each other we what we have, and it's fun.

  18. Delta M.R.-59 on December 5th, 2010 6:34 pm

    I only have one hat--it's that damn football helmet--that isn't from a promotion and 5 Mann. Co. crates…why, Valve?

  19. DrRickRollins on December 5th, 2010 6:41 pm

    Hats update coming out for consoles just in time for Christmas!

    HA! DLC ofcourse, losers!

  20. LegomancerLv100 on December 5th, 2010 6:42 pm

    Yeah, hatlust has not hit me yet. However, trying-to-kill-more-than-one-person-in-arena-lust has hit me like a Heavy-Arrow to the head.

  21. Ichiinu on December 5th, 2010 6:45 pm

    Specifically, that Clown from LFD2. How could anyone resist the draw of those squeaky shoes?

  22. DM1293 on December 5th, 2010 6:50 pm

    So whenever Nick says Assclown, he's referring to Shawn?

  23. Fai57 on December 5th, 2010 6:55 pm

    I see what you did there.

  24. Mr Plen on December 5th, 2010 6:59 pm

    Nope, you just get a bunch of really really really crappy players who don't know what the hell they're doing.

    That's been my experience on the 360 anyways.

  25. Kam_Fakami on December 5th, 2010 7:02 pm

    I only play Gang Garrison 2. BITCHES. http://ganggarrison.com/

  26. _Twitch_ on December 5th, 2010 7:02 pm

    Dont you mean 'we kill each other WITH what we have' ?

    I just corrected grammar nazi ghost.

    YOU LIE! do not temp us with your filthy subterfuge! *goes and cry's in a corner mumbling about how it's NOT FAIR*

  29. Link4all on December 5th, 2010 7:20 pm

    So you're saying there should be a cap on trading? But that would just add another hat…

  30. DrRickRollins on December 5th, 2010 7:24 pm

    Joey: I like GameBoy, they're comfy to play

  31. TheKingOfGraves on December 5th, 2010 7:32 pm

    This isn't what I had in mind when I heard to win you needed to learn the trade. It seems things have headed in a different direction than shooting to win. Now, you take the helm of a hat dealer and compete to be at the top.

    I think I've got this thing down…

  32. Paulrus-Keaton? on December 5th, 2010 7:46 pm
  33. Zyquux on December 5th, 2010 7:49 pm

    My DS is in the top percentile of all other DS's!

  34. DrRickRollins on December 5th, 2010 7:52 pm

    you must also portage the map, and traverse to the each corner and everywhere in between while dodging "real gamers" bullets to acquire currency (hats, or metal)

  35. DrRickRollins on December 5th, 2010 7:53 pm

    I see what you tried to throw over my head there, Link sir!

  36. BoxeyBrown on December 5th, 2010 7:55 pm

    Games are more and more becoming about achievements, collectables, and ranks…

  37. DustyScoot on December 5th, 2010 8:01 pm

    My only hat is a piss-soaked strip of cloth and I'll be damned if I ever trade my baby away.

    (Although, if anybody wants it…)

  38. KamikazeGible on December 5th, 2010 8:06 pm

    Sorry, I couldn't hear you over the awesomeness of my hat.

  39. KamikazeGible on December 5th, 2010 8:09 pm

    No one says anything about Captain Falcon's hat being in here? I thought I knew you Halolz…

  40. Grammar Nazi Ghost on December 5th, 2010 8:26 pm

    Crappy players is fine with me. It makes it easier to slaughter the entire opposing team with sentries and stickybombs.

  41. Grammar Nazi Ghost on December 5th, 2010 8:27 pm

    …the others must never know of this.

    *shoots _Twitch_ with Luger*

  42. DrRickRollins on December 5th, 2010 8:36 pm

    Xbox Paperclip: It looks like you're trying to shoot Twitch, would you like aim assist on?

    (x) for Yes
    (y) for No

  43. Barry Allen on December 5th, 2010 8:42 pm

    MY HATS ARE THE TOP PERCENTILE OF ALL HATS!! /uncaps

  44. Mr Plen on December 5th, 2010 8:57 pm

    Well, that's fine I guess, but I kind of like a good challenge, and the occasional competent team I can actually strategize with.

  45. Mr Plen on December 5th, 2010 9:00 pm

    And then you realized that Captain Falcon's hat is not only *not* there, but that you have embarrassed yourself thoroughly.

  46. Vabolo on December 5th, 2010 9:03 pm

    Haha, he just got sevred.

    This is why I play Minecraft instead: there are no hats, only creepers.

    AW SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHH-!

  48. Vabolo on December 5th, 2010 9:07 pm

    Locke's Cap: IT MAKES YOU SCREAM ALL THE TIME!

  49. ZegenRuki on December 5th, 2010 9:12 pm

    You have found: Stainless Pot
    You have found: Frying Pan

    Kitchen soldier, go!
    Guy: Can you trade me your Stainless Pot so I can be kitchen soldier?
    Me: Hiss!

  50. HadouKirby on December 5th, 2010 9:32 pm

    OBJECTION! You do not appear to be wearing a hat!

  51. Navy_Pheonix on December 5th, 2010 9:36 pm

    That's because they ARE a hat! *Dramatic Music*

    Besides, Bandanas aren't hats either.

  52. Deep Thought on December 5th, 2010 9:39 pm

    I still don't see it

  53. DM1293 on December 5th, 2010 10:22 pm

    But GG2 is like TF2 if they nerfed it to hell and back.

  54. zeldafan8 on December 5th, 2010 10:28 pm

    That's one reason I love Legend of Zelda. Thiere is only one hat and it is universally loved. And in most cases you automatically have it.

  55. TheTopHatKid on December 5th, 2010 10:29 pm

    Don't fear the creeper.

  56. Fai57 on December 5th, 2010 10:53 pm
  57. Vosur on December 5th, 2010 10:54 pm

    That's because you tripped over it.

  58. Jade Catima on December 5th, 2010 11:01 pm

    Remember when we used to try and kill each other? Man, those were some crazy times.

  59. ZatchZombie on December 5th, 2010 11:40 pm

    Hat trading is ok but personally I prefer….
    *Sunglasses*
    Caps.
    YEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH

    Caps as in control points. Control points are a huge part of TF2. Get it now?

  60. ZatchZombie on December 5th, 2010 11:55 pm

    There's more to games then that?

  61. ZatchZombie on December 5th, 2010 11:59 pm

    If no one gets this I mean caps as in control points. As in a main game mode in TF2. You may go Ohhhhh now.

  62. Frankenstrat247 on December 6th, 2010 12:56 am

    and stubbin their toes on them pickelhaubes

  63. FungiGamer on December 6th, 2010 12:57 am

    This comic is COMPLETELY inaccurate……

    I mean, hats? DROPPING? SURELY YOU JEST!

  64. TsavoLion on December 6th, 2010 1:42 am

    just wait 'til those hat's start playing pokemon O.o

  65. Tadferd on December 6th, 2010 2:38 am

    Except that one time, when the hat was alive. It bossed you around and raped your head.

  66. DM1293 on December 6th, 2010 3:35 am

    Now you're cookin with gas…Wait.

    *KSSSSSSSSSSSH*

    …No, no now you're being cooked with gas….

  67. 3K9 on December 6th, 2010 4:24 am

    Lets not all forget to give Heavy a Duke Nukem hat, is the day the whole TF2 trading system falls to oblivion, NO SURVIVORS

  68. Tael on December 6th, 2010 5:49 am

    …what?

    Were you trying to kill them for their hat?

  69. Tael on December 6th, 2010 5:51 am

    So, theoretically, what would happen if you killed yourself again?

    Grammar Nazi Ghost Zombie?

  70. Tael on December 6th, 2010 5:52 am

    OBJECTION!

    Pumpkin Headwear.

  71. The Real Lanthus on December 6th, 2010 6:35 am

    back in my day we didn't have no fancy smancy Achievements. we had points! what were they good for? nothing! you just sat around all day thinkin' you could get 999,999,999 of them.

  72. Vabolo on December 6th, 2010 10:56 am

    MOAR COWBELL!

  73. Vabolo on December 6th, 2010 10:57 am

    It's not a hat, it's a fruit.

  74. Kam_Fakami on December 6th, 2010 3:27 pm

    Nope the creators of TF2 said it was better.

  75. Alpar on December 6th, 2010 4:21 pm

    Nope..zombie GHOST. Big difference.

  76. Alpar on December 6th, 2010 4:26 pm

    Grammar Nazi Ghost!

    *Bursts into the comment chain*

    As part of the 100+ E-Peen Police, I must do my job and arrest you for murdering an innocent member and doing your job as a Grammar Nazi incorrectly!

  77. Grammar Nazi Ghost on December 6th, 2010 4:53 pm

    YOU'LL NEVER TAKE ME ALIVE…OR DEAD!

    *fires caps-lockschreck at Alpar*

    Mwuhahaha!

    *gets onto motorcycle and escapes*

  79. primedawg9170 on December 6th, 2010 5:52 pm

    Pfft, that's nothing compared to the unusual hats that awesome people wear.

  80. primedawg9170 on December 6th, 2010 5:57 pm

    This is why you don't try and arrest a murderer. They'll just ignore you and shoot you and then piss off on their motorcycles.

    Also shouldn't it be "gets on motorcycles" and not "gets onto motorcycle"?

  81. penguindude42 on December 6th, 2010 6:02 pm

    No, YOU'RE a fruit.

  82. Alpar on December 6th, 2010 6:11 pm

    Curses! You readin this, Nazi?! We'll be back to finish the job!

    Also, I guess it doesn't really matter.

  83. Barry Allen on December 6th, 2010 6:56 pm

    I KNOW I HAVE IT!

  84. Miles Edgeworth on December 6th, 2010 7:32 pm

    OBJECTION!
    There are clearly Hats in this game!
    Take a look at this page: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Helmet#Helmets
    I'd like to bluff your way out of that, Wright.

  85. Xenomorph42Q on December 6th, 2010 8:12 pm

    It's weird. You see a hat on someone else and you're like, "Meh lame." Then you get one yourself and it's like "OH MY GOD THIS IS THE GREATEST HAT EVER"

    I experienced this after crafting a Hard Counter

  86. Twilizer on December 6th, 2010 10:04 pm

    Touche…

  87. lokik21 on December 7th, 2010 9:45 am

    I have never heard of this Team Fortress 2. Perhaps it is as good as Trade Fortress 2 =P

  88. lokik21 on December 7th, 2010 9:49 am

    How embarrassing! The Medic question if their is a point to your life! But he's kinda a jerk and I'm sure their is

  89. lokik21 on December 7th, 2010 9:51 am

    I WILL TRADE YOUR FOR 3 HATS FOR MY ONE VINTAGE PICKELHAUBE.

  90. cAlTh3MAd on December 10th, 2010 5:35 pm

    This comic is a LIE! TF2 never let's you just randomly obtain hats. They make you slave over hours and hours of constantly playing their game to find duplicates and triplicates of weapons that you no longer need (some of which you collect just to find that you have no extras of that item or other class item) so that you must smelt them down twenty-seven different times to smelt the products of your previous smelting down nine times to, again, smelt those down three times so that you can find a random hat.

    Then, to your misfortune, you find that the hat that you have just crafted, is already in your inventory. >.<

  91. coolsnape on March 17th, 2011 5:07 pm

    exacly thats the cycle of having a hat wanna know how long it took me to get 1 HAT 2 years im not kidding

  92. coolsnape on March 17th, 2011 5:09 pm

    i hate how gabe newell makes us spend years AND YEARS OF GAMEPLAY just to get like a billon weapons and try to trade them for more metal then you end up with even less then before then after a few years with this u make a hat and get some dumb hat
