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

[Deadlock Radium]

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.

 

[Sleekgiant]

Yes I wore a tie for years when I went to a private school, love the tie, hated the school.

 

[Icecoldcynic]

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

 

[ThaBenMan]

Well, I used to know how to, since I had to wear one for work. No idea if I still do or not, I'd have to try it. And I'm far too lazy atm to go find a tie...

 

[Kaymish]

i can tie a tie since i have to where one with my blouse for work

 

[Marter]

I don't, as I haven't had the need to tie a tie in quite some time.

 

[Flames66]

I can tie a Cravat.

Ties were mandatory up until year 11 at my school I havent tied one of the fuckers since.

 

[fenrizz]

I could never quite get the hang of it, no.

Our secondary school removed ties and blazers for no reason. Really anoying when you go to a posh do and realise you've no idea how to tie a tie. But its no issue now.
I am so wearing a tie every day in the 6th form.

That pretty much about covers it. White-collar workers too, although there's less of them than there are people who have been to school.

 

[DazZ.]

Most English schools make you wear them.
I wore a tie for a few years, suppose I can still do it.

 

[esperandote]

Yes i do, im not sure if if do it right. Here it isnt very commons for a young person to know how t tie a tie.

 

[Yureina]

No, but I probably could figure it out. It's not exactly something I have to wear on a regular basis or anything.

 

[ARatherHandsomeGent]

I'm still at school and they require you to wear a tie, so yes.

 

[Tossth Esalad]

Yup! Full Windsor and all.

 

[Xaryn Mar]

Nope never has, hopefully never will have to.

If I somehow needed to wear a tie I would get someone else to tie it for me.

I think I have worn a tie for a total of 2 times during my 33 years.

 

[The Night Shade]

No i have no idea how to do it

 

[Broady Brio]

Oh thanks. You made me remember that I'd forgot.

 

[Dok Zombie]

Certainly, standard or Windsor knot?
