    Hey I saw this on Paperlilies’ blog. You probably don’t know who she is.

    dieAntagonista: I do not. I also don’t know how to do any of the above. Clip-ons have served me well in the past and I’m sure will continue to serve me well in the future.

    AgZed: She’s from England and makes videos on youtube. Never mind.
    I don’t know how to do any of the above either. Being a girl has served me well, too. Haha

    I love how they all end up looking *exactly* the same.

    It’s missing my favorite: The hangman’s noose.

    Not so, all except for the first one look better when done in a normal tie (the type you use with business suits), the first one I only use with ties that aren’t as wide.

    What is the point of ties anyway? I can’t think of a more useless clothing accessory…

    Except, maybe, the bow tie. But then, that’s a tie…

    I am not a big fan of ties. They remind me of leashes.

    I did learn about these different kinds of knots the other day…. so it’s weird that there’s a post dedicated to it. Prior to this past Saturday, I didn’t know there were names for tie knots.

    What is the point of ties anyway? To make up for a lack of cleavage.

    I used to wear one for school. Windsor gives a nicer knobble.

    I know how to do the Windsor and half Windsor. For me, these were the easiest to do facing the tie wearer (kiddies).

    Never worn a tie.

    I use the half windsor when I have to. It’s just a noose around your neck waiting to be yanked.

    I use a Shell Knot.

    I did not know this until now.

    Before I knew it as “The knot I use to tie my tye”.

    Hey, “The knot I use to tie my tie” is the one I used, too. Until I found out it’s a Windsor. All other knots look to small.

    AgZed: Women don’t take men who wear clip-ons seriously.

    Bitches don’t take men who wear clip-ons seriously.

    Fix’t.

    Also, I think the whole point of ties was to hide a man’s shirt buttons. Why? Maybe in their early prototype stages, buttons used to come shooting off at high velocity, so ties were invented as a saftey device. Fucked if I know.

    The original purpose of ties was to catch stains. And women can’t take a man seriously who can’t take himself seriously enough to make himself look good when it’s necessary. Clip-ons look like shit.

    Clip-ons are shit. They are both metaphorically and literally shit. I use the four in hand whenever I have a performance, but the half Windsor is used otherwise.

    Also, ties are fucking awesome. When a woman wears a tie, she is manly, when a small boy, girl or baby of either gender wears a tie, they are manly and when a man wears a tie, he is manlier. Though on men of some statures, the tie may have a debilitating effect to the manliness outcome. An example, a stereotypical nerd should not wear a tie. An opposing situation would be a lumberjack wearing a tie. Nothing manlier.

    The only man manlier than a mane with a tie is a man with a canoe.
