Yep, and like many of my (let's say) "clothes skills" (tying a tie, packing a baggage, finding matching outfits for prom, folding my clothes), I've learned it form youtube. I'm not kidding you guys! Although I am kinda lying about the tie thing, that one I've learned form Dexter(still no joke intended).

I learned how to do so from a senior in high school the first time I ever went to a dance. It's weird... he only showed me once, and yet I never forgot. My memory's usually not that quick to catch on to things.

Norwegians dress in suits and ties on a particular day? That sounds like an awesome party.
Yeah, the 17th of May is the date Norway got it's freedom after almost 100 years under Sweden, and 400 years under Denmark before that. And to celebrate that we wear suits and ties, and some wear something called "bunad".

And
Yeah, those are kinda old school, but 90% of men wear a suit and a tie.

Now we've been free for 101 years! :D

Since it's the 17th of May today and that means that Norwegians jump in their suits and tie ties, I started wondering; How many Escapists knows and doesn't know how to tie a tie?

I myself learned it today, thanks to an app on my Nokia Phone. :D
Is the 17th of May the only day of the year during which Norwegians wear suits and ties? If so.. I need to relocate.

As I just edited into one of my posts just a bit further up:

Of course I do, pretty much anyone who's been to a secondary school in England should be able to.

*ahem* In my school we just wear black trousers, black shoes, and a white polo shirt with the school logo on it, so I don't.
