Poll: Do the Escapists know how to tie a tie?

[SimuLord]

Yes, learned how when I was 19 and started going to real (read: not McDonald's) job interviews.

I don't have much dexterity so the best I can do is an awkward four-in-hand, but it gets the job done.

...incidentally, this is one of those things that a man should know. Your friendly neighborhood Rated M For Manly poster says so!

 

[Dxz5roxg]

I've got no clue at all. There's only been one or two times when I've even held a tie.

Years in ROTC learned me good in the field of tie tying.

 

[Incredible Bullshitting Man]

Yes, but it usually takes two or three tries for me to get it right because I don't wear one very often.

This applies also to my case. I´m not a fan of those formal dresses so I wear a tie very rarely, but I can still make a half-way decent Windsor knot.

Awwww...That's too bad. I wanted to wear a tie. We could've gone and brought sexy back.

Too bad you Canadians are just too damn sexy for us, so we had to block you. You see, our idea of sexy is padded winter clothing. Now that´s hot. Okay, that was stretching it far, but I got to use a BitF strip. Yay.

 

[Dark Knifer]

My school uniform requires ties in winter, so yes.

This is one of those, "I know, but always forget" kind of things for me.

 

[Uefascal]

Yeah, but we did it the Skinny Way!!

 

[Dr. Pepper Unlimited]

Yes, it's not really that difficult either.

 

[Uefascal]

Yes, it's not really that difficult either.

Anyone else like or put it on the skinny side out?

 

[Uefascal]

I keep trying, but I always fail. I need to master this... because I love collecting ties. Irony!

What type/kind of ties?

 

[scorptatious]

I've only worn a tie once and that was for high school yearbook pictures.

Other than that, no, I haven't worn a tie since and hopefully I won't ever have to learn how to tie one again.

 

[Uefascal]

How did you wear it? Chunky etc or?

 

[Trebort]

I keep trying, but I always fail. I need to master this... because I love collecting ties. Irony!

What type/kind of ties?

I can tie them perfectly now, just so everyone is aware.

I have to wear traditional ties when I'm in court, and totally boring ones. Nothing bright or happy looking. Casually though, I prefer to wear skinny ties, and usually very bright or cheerful.

Oh. unintentional double post due to necro-ing of the thread that I didn't notice. Nice.
