        I’m in no way familiar with Oglaf’s story lines, but given the nature of the comic, it’s likely a literal f a gg ot hat, that is, a hat made out of a bundle of sticks (even this etymology is contested, but I have to believe that’s the joke).

          I am familiar with the Oglaf storyline(s) and this character would absolutely wear a hat specifically for a sexual double entendre.

      I don’t think they’ve ever been a real thing. Very creative world building though. I interpret it as part of an environment of excess so ridiculously hedonistic that even sadness drugs would make sense in order to gorge on emotions their jaded minds can’t produce naturally anymore.
