the term derives from the arcane, m-s-ch-stic practice of wearing of an incredibly itchy and uncomfortable shirt woven out of human hair, all in the cause of feigning one’s humility and penitence for the benefit of some petty religious rulership.
“yeah, i could’ve been published years earlier, but none of the agents and publishers would allow it until i went through their life-crushing, byzantine gauntlet of -ss-kissing and hairshirting.”
