Just My Fug

If there’s anything lamer than a trucker hat, it’s when a celebrity decides to personalize them as a way of showing her "appreciation" for the people who worked with her on a set. Yet such was allegedly the approach Lindsay Lohan took recently. Upon wrapping a project — most likely Just My Luck – Lohan reportedly distributed hats to the crew emblazoned with the sincere and incredibly touching message, "Love, Lindsay."

Such a gift is the film equivalent of "I gave her my heart, she gave me a pen," except in this case, replace "pen" with "crappy hat," and replace "heart" with "false letter detailing her professionalism, last red cent when I signed that gag order, and final shred of sanity." A Love, Lindsay trucker hat is the kind of wearable valentine that sits at the bottom of one’s closet, or hangs jauntily from the handle of the plunger in the corner of your bathroom and occasionally catches drips after a cleaning.

One savvy entrepreneur, mindful that such a gift is both inexpensive and hilarious, duplicated the hats on a Cafepress store. We applaud that person’s incentive, because the more apparent it becomes that Lohan’s gift took no thought and even less effort, the better. Yes, ’tis better to give than to receive, yada yada yada, but come on: If she was going to do this, she should have at least gone the whole nine yards and made t-shirts with her face on them that say, "I don’t know who you are, and I kind of don’t care, but I hope you love me!"
