This is a completely self-serving topic.
Christmas dinner, etc., is coming up, and so I need to douchebag it up and dress formally.
I can't decide if I should wear a tie or not, given what I'm already wearing.
The pictures linked to were taken quickly, so go ahead and ignore my facial expressions in them.

I have cleverly hidden the "I don't care" option under your browser's Back button.

You clearly want us to take the no tie option, giving us the 'sexy eye' and all that...

If you want the sloppy, "what the hell am I doing here" look definitely no tie. If you want the self-absorbed asshole look, go with a tie. Either way, the 'sexy eye' should help.

I only voted no tie because it takes less time. I'm all for efficient procrastination.

i voted tie to help even out the score a little bit.

i'd go with no tie unless you wanna be really formal, which isnt always a bad thing.


and so it goes, and so it goes, and so will you soon i suppose.

I think the tie looks better. What you really need, however, is a cravat.

How formal do you want to be? If everyone is going to be sitting round a table eating, pick tie
If everyone is sitting round on couches or outside on the lawn, pick no tie.

No tie imo. But then what would I know about dress sense? :P

I'm going to have to vote "no tie". You seem more friendly and casual that way.

Also, no bow tie? :P

Tie.

I was actually stuck on the same question, but decided to go with tie, because there's always the option of taking it off later, but if you show up without one, you could end up being the odd one out with no way out.

topic moved to Discussion, because there's nothing here besides the pictures Tsukatu took that makes it appropriate for the Images forum.

Nevertheless, you can still vote on the poll in the images forum by going here: http://forum.therealn.com/viewtopic.php ... &sk=t&sd=a

From what I recall of your stories of your upbringing, tie.
