Reginald is Disney's Mad Hatter from Alice in Wonderland. Created by Bri-Chan and Rain27 for their Alice/Mad Hatter fanfiction on LJ, "When Curiosity Met Insanity (WCMI)." Reginald is known for his extreme attempts to woo Alice, an inexplicable love for tea, and obsession with hats. On Sundays, a group of fangirls will follow him around Disneyland.
Also known as El Sombrero Loco, Psycho, Squishy, Reggie, Grasshopper, Sweet, Badges, or the crazy hat man playing musical chairs at the Coca-Cola Corner.

Oh, look! Bri-Chan and Rain27 updated WCMI! Reggie's such a cutie.
OMG! Did you see Reginald today at musical chairs? His joke was hilarious!
"Mr. Theophilus-"
"The Third!"
"Stop it this instant," demanded Alice, holding back her true feelings for the poor Hatter.
Reginald Theophilus the Third is the greatest madman ever.

Get the Reginald Theophilus the Third mug.*noun*; from Greek, θεός {god} + δίκαιον (justice). Literally, "the justice of God." Specifically, the attempt to explain God's ways to mortals.
The term was used by Gottfried Leibniz for his book {Théodicée} explaining how an omnipotent and benevolent God could allow suffering in the universe. Leibniz took the approach that this was the "best of all possible worlds," meaning that God could not have made this world better in any one respect, without making it worse in others.
In 1759, Voltaire published the novel *Candide* which was essentially a very long satire of Leibniz' views. The character of Dr. Pangloss is based on Leibniz, although it has been argued that Voltaire misrepresented Leibniz' views.
In common usage, the term *theodicy* refers to any defense of a thing based on the claim that whatever that thing does is the best possible. The obvious example is neoclassical economics, which insists that whatever outcome achieved by "the market," it is the best one that could possibly exist. It's a fallacy because it uses circular reasoning, and it is unfalsifiable.

Privileged and successful groups need religion for a very different purpose, namely legitimation. Their members are convinced that they deserve their good fortune and that the poor deserve their misfortune. {Max} Weber calls this the "theodicy of good fortune"...
Anthony Waterman in 2002 put forward the suggestion that Smith could be read as offering a kind of Augustinian theodicy of the market. According to him, Smith's idea could be interpreted as thus: just like God put governments in place to restrain sin, the institution of the market also restrains sin.
