Cravats!

Ah yes...the ol' necktie.  What man invented this?  Also, why did it change from this form?  It used to look like a clam, now it looks like a funny tongue.  I don't think that this was on purpose, of course...men love clams!  

There was clearly a point in history where men decided it would be noble to wear a piece of cloth tied around their necks.  I can't explain it, and looking back, I don't think they could either.  

The only thing more depressing is a clip-on tie.  Not only are you wearing a tie, but you don't even know how to tie it.  

Another thing I found interesting about the tie is that no one questions having to wear one to work.  Has anyone ever said, "Why would I wear an elongated piece of silk around my neck?"...I think not, at least for my purposes anyways.

The only necktie that is acceptable is the bow tie.  For some reason it works.  It's just so ridiculous, that it works.  If you have the gaul to wear one, then you look good by default.  

Ties are funny, thanks Rosie.

Goodnight for now.
