Is the necktie obsolete? Why do we still wear it?

Well if you work in a plant, yea.

Any symbol of money gets the panties wet.

You'd know that if you had any.

I've never understood the point in neck ties. I wear them when I have to, but I'm never happy about it.

Whoever decided back in the day that men should wear a piece of fabric tied around their neck to look formal is the first person I'm kicking in the nuts when time travel becomes a thing.

Do you mean noose that keeps the heat trapped inside of the shirt?

I hate those things

It hides some of men's fatness (when work with a jacket), so far from obsolete.

It's all John fricking Kennedy's fault.

Before JFK, men went to work like this:


After JFK, suits started falling out of favor and what used to be the symbol of class and masculinity became the must have accessory for neckbeards. Ugh.

You talking about fedora's? Because it's believed the automobile killed the fedora.

When people say they would go back and kill Hitler, I always say that I would find the a-hole who invented the tied and strangle him with his first creation.

Try this, wear a Boutonnière every day.

Find a florist on the way to work, buy a single budding flower and pin it to your jacket.

Tie optional, but it's amazing how eye catching and appreciated from both men and women of the office.

I would have laughed if I hadn't seen it work myself. Dude was all of a sudden a God in the office. It really takes your style up a notch. We've never worn one save prom or marriage....wear it at the office and you are a level above.


This is the best pic I can find, which shows that it isn't used enough.
