If a tie was tied, but nobody saw it.... would it rain or be sunny in Springville?

Only if the wind was to the NE and baff trout-smacked Roger. Oh, and then it'd be sunny, cause it's WINTER!
 
Try this:

Over, under, through the hole... Nope, wait, start over.

Over, under, through the hole... Nope, that's not it, start over.

Over, under, over, through the hole... Nope, sorry, start over...
 
From link sent by HotChic, the first style - The Perfect Knot - is horrible, the tie wont even tied.
The second style - The Half Windsor - is ok but i dont like it, the knot is not balanced - horrid for me! 🙁 the worst part is, it took me over 7 minutes to try it!

now i'm onto the New Knot, the Shelby right after a 2 minutes break. Dang, hopefully i wont end up wasting an hour for a tie knot 🙁

brb.


 
ok, the Shelby Knot is very nice but still not James Bond nice
Pillage, you mean dead knot when tying a rope or sth eh? Will that work, ok, i'll give that a try too after I try Beau's link.
I'm desperate.

EDit: Ok, the tie is too long it covers my whole groin area, damn it.

It covers the jimmy? Crap. 😀

I was just kidding on the dead knot thingy, you don't wanna do that or your interviewer would kick you out of the office. 😀

my gf is at school ... argh, all these illustrations are driving me crazy. Who wud have thought tying a tie can be this hard?
 
If the tie is too long, you can adjust it. When you put the tie around your neck, vary the lengthof the thin end. To make the tie longer, have a shorter thin end. To make it shorter, have more of the thin end pulled down.

Good luck with James Bond-esqe ties. He's got a professional that does his 😀. I'm happy when the knot looks good and its long enough on the first try 😀

When I saw your nick on the last replies column, I'm almost jumped out of the chair out of excitement, but frankly, after reading your post, it's a dissappointment, why cant you be The James Bond, or the professional that does James Bond tie 🙁

i probably have to settle with either one of the style llaw, right now the Windsor score the highest point.
 
I settled with The Half Windsor Knot. It's still not James Bond style but looks nice, and now I'm onto ironing my shirt, this shouldnt be a problem.

Thanks everyone.
