Pasta strainer head garb of doom.

[Dechujoh64]

I don't know if anybody is heard this, but Aaron Williams a fellow Pastafarian (may be here at the forums or not,) was not allowed to wear a pasta strainer for a driver ID photo.

He has already taken his drivers license photo sans pasta strainer and everything has been settled with the motor vehicle commission of New Jersey.

but here are a couple of websites showing the story.

So, I must ask, how long must we be punished for believing in

(p.s. if Mr. Williams (or admin) wants me to remove this then I shall.)
(p.s.s. if the Admins wants me to move this new topic to another place, so be it. I would hope that the admins will move the topic for me, if need be.

on and will look perfect for my driver ID photo as well.

Harrr! heathens and infidels!

DEAR FRIEND,
Welcome to the wonderful world of religion!
These are exciting times in holiness—politicians are crusading, nations are invading, and science1 is fading. With these changes come religious opportunities the likes of which haven't been seen since the Reformation... or at least since the persecuted masses first huddled together and shipped off to that great democratic revival meeting we call the United States of America.
With this in mind, the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster (FSM) invites you to learn a little more about us. We'd like to tell you all about our Heaven, which features a Stripper Factory and a giant Beer Volcano. We'd love to see you dressed in His chosen garb: full Pirate regalia. We want you to enjoy Fridays as His chosen holiday. But first you need to know a little more about us.

Where be the mention of wearing utensils from ye galley?

[TDKs]

My provisional is due for renewal next year - will totally go for it. :D

[The Dark Noodle]

Full pirate regalia can set you back a couple of hundred bucks: a colander costs less than five. Sounds like a winner to me.

We be talking just a head shot here, hardly an expensive look to achieve

[The Dark Noodle]

That facial hair would cost me my marriage.

Ye Wench would make thee walk the plank?

That's probably about ...15 bucks worth? Maybe 20?

Facial hair - free
Bit of cloth (surely thee can find some old rag stowed away) - Next to nothing

[The Dark Noodle]

Ye Wench would make thee walk the plank?

Yes. Next question?

Oh dear!
Well the facial hair is optional.

It has been pointed out to me that I had not been reading the holy text correctly

The Loose Canon
The Book of Penelope
Chapter II
7 But as T.V. hadn't been invented yet Penelope put the Holy Colander on her head and grabbed a handy pair of salad tongs

I have read the Book of Penelope many times, but I think my aversion to wearing uncomfortable galley utensils must have blinded me to that passage. It may also be the case that because as a Vegan I find this passage very important, and have been distracted by it, for it shows that The Holy Meatballs were not originally sourced from bovines.

The Loose Canon
The Book of Penelope
Chapter 3
1Now it came to pass that Penelope had a good beer buzz on.... 2She strode through the land and saw all was good; 3wheat for pasta, hops and barley for beer, beef trees for meatballs, even a cheese well or two. 4The People remained unsatisfied for T.V. STILL hadn't been invented... 5As she strode (well wove actually; she'd had quite a few beers) she thought "it's a good thing automobiles haven't been invented yet. 6I'd be in BIG trouble if I were driving".

I shall now go and flail myself with my salad tongs.

In a few weeks, a renewal of a certain identification of mine will be made. While it isn't a DMV photo, it is still official identification. I have thus prepared my argument for the wearing of a colander in official photos. While wearing daily would be ideal, wearing during official photos is key.

The Loose Canon
The Book of Penelope
Chapter 2
Verse 7
“But as T.V. hadn’t been invented yet Penelope put the Holy Colander on her head and grabbed a handy pair of salad tongs”


And from The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster
As written by the Prophet Bobby Henderson, pasta be upon him,

“the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster invites you to learn a little more about us...His chosen garb: full Pirate regalia.”

In ancient, mediaeval and renaissance times, some pirates would have worn helmets. Since the helmet is basically a piece of headwear composed of a bowl of metal, we hold that colanders are helmets with holes in them. The act of wearing a colander links a kitchen symbol of the divine Flying Spaghetti Monster with the pirates, the original prophets of the Church.

Any official pictures are key to the wearing of a colander (a pirate hat is also acceptable). The reason they are key is that His Noodliness wavers in and out of drunken states. When in a drunken frenzy, He doesn’t have the attention span to watch everything that is happening everywhere. However, on the rare occasion that He is sober (His Noodliness forbid), He looks at the official records upon the earth, examining, especially, the pictures of His followers. I fear the wrath that He may bestow upon us should He catch us in anything less than at least partial pirate regalia.

[Rev. Rowan Redbeard]

Personally, I would go for a pirate hat. With a feather in it. A very large feather.

[Rev. Daniel Scott]

My wearing of the colander is dual-purposed. First, to avoid His drunken wrath (He would surely get drunk after being sober for long enough to realize that I didn't wear pirate regalia in a photo). Second, to spread awareness of the Church. I feel that while wearing a pirate hat is very acceptable under the Loose Canon, it would be passed up as simple humor by onlookers. A colander, on the other noodle, would be more likely to prompt curiosity and questions.

You know I've never really came back to this one. At first I thought I'll just post this and nobody will really give two hoots about it. And for about a week nobody did and so finally after several people have given their thoughts about it.(Even though the story isn't about me unit was about somebody else.) as for me I don't care if you wear a pasta strainer as a hat or not. for me what I have on my state ID is that my hair is blonde while I am a natural dark brown. I have my hair blonde because that is the color of his most noodliest, is it not. I hope this is a good explanation for everybody from my point of view of this issue.
And

May the pasta be with you.
RAmen.

Yeah, well, I have flimsy moral standards, and I think looking cool in a pirate hat is better than getting more questions asked but looking foolish wearing a colander.

I will keep the pirate hat under consideration. I have a few weeks of deliberation.
