What I Wore to the Company Picnic

One week ago today, Shopify had its company picnic. We were divided into volleyball teams, each of which had to come up with not just a name, but a theme and costume. My team were “The Hefs”, in tribute to Hugh Hefner. Hence the outfit and pipe. Since I added the cowboy hat and shades and my bathrobe was terry as opposed to silk, I think my “look” came off more like a cross between Dr. Hunter S. Thompson and Dr. “Trapper John” McIntyre from M*A*S*H than everyone’s favourite gentlemen’s magazine publisher.

Still: can I rock a pipe or can I rock a pipe?
