Anyone know how to tie a tie?

I need to wear a tie tomorrow and don't know how to tie it. Any help on this crisis would be much appreciated.

Can your sister/mom/dad help?

Also, I get the feeling women are often better tie-tiers than men once people get married so I'd ask your mom first.

I've worn a tie 3 times in my life (a funeral and wedding when I was 2 and a funeral when I was 15) so I can't really help you out. In fact, I'm not sure I know how to clip one on!

Don't we all just the internet?

With these movies you should have no problem to tie your tie!

Aww, Swiss, you beat me to it!

That doesn't seem too hard. He said it's a simple knot though. Might as well get a complex one!

I had no youtube video when i had to learn how to tie such a thing! Feeling old.... I have to wear one on my job from time to time.

I found a drawing that showed the process step by step. I did it after five minutes. So with this videos it really should be no problem.

Thanks! That looks really helpful, but I had my dad tie it for me . But I really need to know how to tie one!

I wear clip on ties

I remember when the basketball team at school had to wear suits... and the guys all went around pulling at each other's ties to make sure no one was wearing a clip-on. Go figure.

Men!

men men men

A friend of mine did that too. He was 100% sure that the other one had one of these clip on ties, so he pulled on that thing like hell.
Well.... you already know what the problem was... it was not a clip on tie....

you make more friends that way!

How'd the interview go? Did they approve of your tie's knot?

It went alright, I guess. I was nervous as hell though!

They didn't comment on my tie's knot...

That's good? Bad? I don't really know. I guess it's better to be nervous than not nervous because you're incredibly drunk (you weren't partially drunk were you?)

That might be a good thing. I'd tend to think most tie-related comments would be like:
"Umm...what the hell is wrong with that tie?"
"Who tied that tie for you?"
"Why does that clip-on tie have such a lousy knot? Did you get it at a dollar store?"

True!
