Don't tie one on
The Brits have finally come up with a good idea.
In an effort to make their hospitals more healthy, they are banning neckties and some other types of clothing. I don't care about the long sleeves and jewelry that they want to ban, but they have a great idea about the neckties. Neckties are the high heels for men. They're stupid. If God had wanted people to wear neckties, he wouldn't have invented Polo shirts. But the Brits note that unlike other clothes people wear, neckties typically don't get washed. This means that pathogens collect on them so that they could infect other people. So don't think of them as fine Italian silk, think of them as germ-filled disease spreaders. Take them off. NOW! Don't ever wear them again. The Brits, which brought us the mini skirts and other great fashion, have spoken. (I don't know for a fact that the Brits brought us mini skirts, but they brought us the Beatles who were chased by young women in mini skirts and that's all the documentation I need) Posted by Steve E.

"Neckties are the high heels for men. They're stupid." Ok, this line bothers me. High heels are not stupid, in fact every women should wear them!!! :) posted by

For certain neckties were invented by someone that hated men.
