Smile and Say Good Morning

A black hat, beard, and long coat is a joke if the wearer doesn't know how to smile and say good morning to a fellow human being.

Unfortunately my husband and I have been on the receiving end of such behavior, but in our case it involved not getting a "Gut Shabbos" tossed our way. Why? Because the black hat or shtreimel was passing a knit kippah or suede kippah, not a black velvet kippah or black hat!
Only problem is that we forgot to laugh at the joke, as Rabbi Lazer Brody calls it.
