Edward said:Many years ago, I first learned to tie my own bow tie in preparation for a then-girlfriend's graduation ball. She knew I was doing it and spent many hours the week before rolling her eyes and bitterly criticising me for it to her housemates and friends (as I later discovered). A year later after we split she still saw this as somehow a valid grounds of bitter criticism. Never could figure it out myself. Glad she's gone!
My wife does not like for me wear a bowtie or tweeds when I ride my scooter to work (i conseal my tie in my pocket) and she preferred that I not wear one when I drove my Bright Yellow VW Beetle. Something about it making me look like a Coll. Professor, so now I wear the bowtie and tweeds and drive my 1954 Cadillac, she's still trying to cope with that.
