Graduation is just around the corner for many, and with it, the donning of the traditional cap-and-gown that is the uniform of a soon to be university graduate. But whence did this odd form of dress originate? you might ask. The graduation cap, or mortarboard, is believed to have evolved from the biretta, a hat worn by the Roman Catholic clergy.

Bored Panda has put together this list of funny graduation caps for you, soon to be former students, to help stave off the inevitable malaise that accompanies joining the workforce. Which hat do you find the funniest? Vote on your favourite, or submit your own funny graduation cap pictures! (h/t)

LMAO... unless this is high school graduation, there isn't much "Mom" can do about it. I do admire the non-confrontational way of making the announcement though! --------------------- Kind of like telling your parents you have a fatal illness, then when they are at the height of despair, you say, "I'm just kidding - actually, I'm just pregnant." Then, you best run... FAST!!

Just wait until you get your first job in your chosen field of study... then you'll REALLY know how much they did NOT teach you!!

I do hope that was an intentional spelling "mistake" ("wined" as in drank vs "whined" as in complained). If not, please tell me which college this was, so I can be sure my son never goes there!!
