And I associate hoodies with people wanting to keep their heads warm.

See my previous post. I thought the point was not that they had pizza stained t-shirts,
but rather that the Wikipedian who was interviewed
(Kevin) was explicitly dividing his kin into those who wear such stained shorts, and those
who dress in a 'chill' way, which as Mr McBride explains, means 'cool and
hip'.

I don't see what the 'hoodie' bit has to do with it. I associate
'hoodies' with people who want to remain anonymous, possibly to escape the
attention of police, government agents or other responsible members of the enforcement
community charged with keeping the world safe from terrorism or violence. Why would such
people make a meaningful difference to open knowledge within the Wikimedia movement?
I'm puzzled.
