Bow ties are the essence of cool, collected, and creative. There is no reason to keep up the stereotypes of bow ties being only for nerds or tuxedo's (although nerds are awesome and tuxedos are arguably as sharp as a man can dress). Let's look at a few of the reasons to bring back bow ties in both business settings and our every day lives. It is almost the "Roaring Twenties" again, y'all!

1. Check out men's style!

It's almost the roaring twenties again ya'll! Let's get Great Gatsby glamorous. Bow ties are moving more and more towards a huge variety of styles, materials and textures. Just check out this next one...

2. Make people happy

Men can be dogs, but even dogs look cute in bow ties!

3. Permeate confidence

Chicks dig dudes with dogs and bow ties.

4. Be tenacious and gracious

Knowing how to tie a bow tie well show other people in the room what kinda person you are: smart, patient, clean, and efficient!

5. Elevate simplicity

A bow tie can take a simple outfit and turn it GQ in a heart beat. Who doesn't want a little GQ in their day to day?

6. Add 10 points to your I.Q.

There is nothing more intellectually sexy than a well worn bow tie. They are the choice of industry leaders and world changers throughout history! Check out Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein, and even Bill Nye.

7. Embrace ambition

Bow ties have long been held as a sign of wealth and class. Embrace your desire to change the world!

8. Create a signature

Every good business person can agree on one thing: signatures sell. For Apple products, it's the packaging and operating system, for Toyota it's dependability, for McDonald's it's the Big Mac! Make yourself stand out, be unique, and most of all, memorable!

9. Rock the end of day look!

A loosened bow tie suggests a night of scotch on the rocks and swooning.

10. And tell me you don't want to look like Dicaprio!

Leo is the pinnacle of the modern man in a bow tie. Cheers to a revival of the gentleperson!

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
