    Man, I can't stand it when I'm wearing a collared shirt and my neck is getting cinched by the collar. It's a fuckin' muffin top for your neck. Awful.

    You know the collar comes in sizes, right?

    I do, but I'm a fat fuck, and have gone through periods of rapid gain and loss. Plus...I'm cheap. Mine generally don't have that issue if I have the size/weight match correct. The concept and effect though still stand.

    Seconded. I’ve never used the top button in my life. I usually associate it with church-goers or jail-goers. So uncomfortable, too. The tie does the rest.

    The bulging neck muffin top is an issue worth investing in.

    If you're wearing a tie, the top button should be fastened, IMO - it looks silly otherwise. Buy shirts with the right collar size and the button should be no tighter than the tie.

    Are you guys buying your dress shirts in S/M/L or what?

    I hate ties, though. I'm glad a sport coat and no tie seems to be acceptable now in most business situations.

    Agreed. I hadn't thought about a tie. A lot of the younger generation wear shirts without a tie but still buttoned all the way up.

    Can't remember the last time I wore a tie.

    Do y’all not go to weddings or funerals? You would be judged out of the room not wearing a tie at those here.

    Not at oktoberfest, but drinking beer overlooking the marina in Cabo has to count for something, no?

    I wore shorts and a t-shirt to my own wedding. I’m sure as fuck not going to wear one to someone else’s.

    If you ever have the opportunity to try peach twizzlers, don't.

    I had to wear a tie to school one day a week, every week, from 6-12th grade. I swore I would never wear a tie again. Unfortunately, in undergrad, the professor who taught all of my public speaking classes (which was my major) required men to wear a tie during all of their speeches. My way of protesting was to find the most absurd ties I could find. Technically within the rules and I couldn't lose points for it. Pretty sure I still have the one depicting karma sutra positions.

    For our wedding, I refused to wear a tie and pissed off a lot of people in the process (not my wife though). Fuck them. I officiated my brother in law's wedding and they insisted I wear a tie. We settled on a bow tie. Clip on. With polka dots.

    Fuck ties.

    Haven't worn a tie since I was a kid working in a hardware store (mixing paint ffs with a tie). Even if I did wear a tie, no one would be able to see it under my beard.
    I'm of the firm opinion that a turd is still a turd no matter how much cloth you drape around it.

    I don't mind wearing a tie. I think suits and ties look sharp. Doesn't seem to bother James Bond, Tony Stark, Thomas Crown, Barney Stinson, Sterling Archer . . .

    I'm neutral on ties. Great ties look great, bad ties look bad. They can really "tie" together a look (hurr hurr).

    I don't mind dressing up and wearing a tie but I had a job about 15 years ago where I had to wear a tie and it gets real old, real fast IMO
