But I do like his hat

     "Now then!" said the stout young man.

    George regarded him with a critical and unfriendly eye. He disliked this fatty degeneration excessively. Looking him up and down, he could find no point about him that gave him the least pleasure, with the single exception of the state of his hat, in the side of which he was rejoiced to perceive there was a large and unshapely dent.

(from A Damsel in Distress, by Sir Pelham Wodehouse)
