    Actually headgear like can be a core piece of people's identity and even the government has to respect that. At least here in Czech Republic it does and issues official ID cards with it:

    is there something I'm missing regarding the whole "let's wear spaghetti strainers on our heads" motif? or is he seriously lacking in dignity? or is it, as part of me suspects, an FSM related act of trolling?

    suddenly, it makes a whole lot of sense.

    OK, so I can't read or understand Czech (and I'm leery of translators), but I think I can figure out what happened from here:

    -dude walks into the DMV equivalent in the Czech republic to get an ID,of course wearing a strainer.
    -those guys tell where where to go (not in a good way). Partly because of the stupid headdress, but just as likely as it hides his hair mostly (a hindrance to IDing people).
    -he argues that as FSM is his religion and the strainer is a symbol of it, he should have the right to wear it as a Sikh does his turban or similar. This being to demonstrate the double standards regarding ID laws.
    -eventually, he (at least partly) succeeds, creating the funny mug I see before me.

    I've seen similar stories from the US, though nothing this brazen--in a good/comical way.

    EDIT: @Alcibiade: you are wearing a practical war helmet, which could save your life. the guy is wearing a strainer. you may judge him as you please

    Is it what we call a bad id ?

    I wonder if he ever tried to board a plane with it. At least he can safely walk his outrageous self everywhere inside the schengen area.

    EDIT : I just had a look at my avatar and realised I shouldn't judge him so severely....
