Oh.

I thought the hat was a Tremors reference.

That would be a pretty vague reference. lol. I think it's meant to be an optical illusion, like the picture above it.

Remember when the repubs lost their shit when they found out that Obama put mustard on his burger? Those people really ought to get a life.

It was Dijon mustard in particular. The Conservatives tried to label him as "stuck up" for requesting his "fancy" mustard.
This is what luxury looks like, apparently.

Yeah, specifically they were aghast that he asked for spicy/dijon mustard and not the *real* American yellow mustard (the worst of all mustards | pro: dirt cheap | con: there's a reason why it's dirt cheap)

Fun facts about mustard:
* originally cultivated in the Indus River Valley
* the romans were the ones who really started experimenting with it as a condiment (hence deviled eggs)
* mustard (along with horseradish, wasabi, and of course, peppers) activates the human capsaicin receptors called TRPV1
* mustard grains are nearly flavorless when intact, but when chewed or ground, release chemicals that evolved to irritate mammals and discourage further predation.  Like many other things, humans LOVE stuff intended to harm us and widely cultivate it for that exact reason.  Come on, mother nature, do your wurst!
* seriously, the chemical reaction for the "mustard bomb" is fascinating - essentially, two compounds are stored separately within the mustard plant and then when chewed or mangled, these compounds interact and BAM!  Flavor explosion!  It's like the plant equivalent of the bombardier beetle.  Mustard plants really really do NOT want to be snacked on!  Too bad!

Btw, try this mouth-watering sandwich: wheat bread with sliced ham, a slice of swiss or muenster cheese, sliced tomato, and whole ground mustard.

I had no idea of 'the mustard incident'. Somebody should tell those people that they sound exactly like Islamist fanatics. Because they are.
