Mad Hatter

1) A term commonly used by players of games like Call of Duty or Grand Theft Auto to insult players of the F2P Team Fortress 2. It mocks how much of the game and it's economy revolves around hats, and how almost everyone who plays it wastes money and time bartering for the rarest hats. They would use it to insult players of TF2, because TF2 is widely regarded by players of other, more mature FPSs to be "immature" and "all jokes and references". This is because a lot of the game is exactly that: Puns, jokes, and references to other games made by Steam. This would make it seems ridiculous in comparison to other games with more of a story line, and would make anyone who plays it seem like someone with "no taste in games"

2) Another term used by players of the game to describe other players that have a plentiful supply of hats, and many that are rare. This, in contrary to the other definition, would be used as a compliment by those who only have the Gibson to honor those that have everything from the store-bought "Modest Pile of Hat" to the envious "Pyrovision Goggles"

1) Andy: "Hey, you see that Adam guy over there? He's a Mad Hatter."

Drew: "What's that supposed to mean?"

Andy: "It means someone plays that one game, Play Fortress 3 or whatever. You know, the one with jokes and hats?"

Drew: "Oh yeah, that stupid game. I'd rather stick to GTA V, man! #YOLOSWAG360NOSCOPE420BLAZEIT man!"

2) MustacheManC2DaK: Hey, look at that ArisenJesus guy! He's a Mad Hatter! He could trade away fifty Pyrovision goggles and still have too many!"
