I’ve never seen a tie
That had a practical use;
And I never knew why
A man would want to wear a noose.
I’ve never seen a button
That I needed to hide.
A tie is good for nuttin’
But your vanity and pride.
And a tie, wide or narrow
Just invites the folks to watch
The man who needs an arrow
To designate his crotch.
Soldiers used to wear them around their necks to protect the area that would usually be exposed between your helmet and breastplate.
You can throw it over your shoulder while you eat, and if anything drips down on your shirt you got a chance of covering it up w/ the clean tie.
I dunno. I’m just not sure.
PM & Smears,
Thanks for your comments on how wearing ties could be practical. I’m old school, looking at ties that became status symbols. There’s a fine resturaunt near wher I live that lops off any tie entering the store and nails it to the wall. Many folks wear ties into the resturant just to get them nailed! A fop is a fop is a fop.
