As someone who experienced traumatic brain injury from a crash on an empty country road with grassy shoulders, I highly recommend that you wear your helmet whenever you are on your bike. You only have one head.
Get one that fits. They all meet minimum safety standards. Fit is key to effectiveness.

I hate to lecture.....but I'd worry more about your health and safety and less about how "moronic" you look. I'd ditto the suggestion that you go to a bike shop and try on some helmets. Fit and comfort is key. Having ordered a helmet off the internet once only to have it not fit, I'd recommend buying one from a brick and mortar shop rather than online.
Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
