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!

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
