A stripe like this is a bold choice. Being the only stripe on the main part of the tie gives the whole thing a kind of ceremonial appearance.
First 2024 GOP Debate
7 men; 7 red ties.
Rep. Nadler on State of the Union
An impressive chartreuse color here, but what is going on with that knot? Is there such a thing as a triple windsor?
Tom S-TIE-er
You can’t talk about the Democratic debates without talking about Tom Steyer’s tartan tie. He’s wearing it every time he’s in public. I’ve read that he has many ties that all just look very similar, but we may never know the truth.
Workaholics
Workaholics
I have wanted to post this tie ever since I started watching Workaholics (over a year ago!). It’s here. Finally. Blake’s tie. He wears it on the show whenever he is at work without fail. I hope it never fails. Also, you can purchase the tie on Amazon!
1973 Bowie
“This, again, is all Freddie Burretti stuff. ’73-ish. These were my day clothes ha ha ha! My offstage stuff!! I look rather reflective. Kind of, Where are we going? It was madness by then. We were touring frantically. We toured all of 1972. And I had one month off in ’73. I must have been pretty near the edge. This was during our second American tour. I folded up the Spiders in July, 73′. I was very exhausted.” – David Bowie (1993) responds to this photo shown to him by Q Magazine in “David Bowie: This is Your Life” feature.
State of the Union, part two
State of the Union
Any political event will generate a multitude of ties. Last night’s State of the Union Address was no exception with three ties in sight for most of the speech. President Obama’s – typical, classic, tied well. Speaker of the House, John Boehner’s – looked pink which was strange, but upon closer inspection was more of a lavender color. Vice President, Joe Biden’s had a poorly tied knot and he tightened his tie mid-address!
Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist
While watching interviews with Jonathan Katz on YouTube, it occurred to me that my favorite cartoon professional therapist, Dr. Katz, sports a brilliant tie. This very traditional, recurring necktie always looks fantastic in Squigglevision.
“Note to myself: How are you? Who’s your favorite professional therapist? You are, you bad, bad Dr. Katz.”
