“Professional” | 52.1.b

Because wearing a tie makes you professional…

I cannot imagine the thought process that was swirling around in the idiot’s head who said “you know, that suit looks great, but would what really make you look professional is another piece of clothing tied around your neck hanging down.”  Seriously.  Wearing a tie does not make anyone professional.  In many ways, it reminds me of really bad bathroom spray.  You can use it after someone takes a dump, but it doesnt really cover up the smell.  So what you have is crap AND bad bathroom spray.  Kinda like a tie, if you catch my drift.
