I also can't tie a tie.

That is because it is not an adult skill, how did you make it through your etiquette courses when you were like 12 without being able to tie a tie?

People who know how to dance will tell you to just let go and do it naturally.

People who know how to dance are unaware this is not possible if you don't know to dance.

I'm sure us non-dance knowers could learn to dance by actually getting dance lessons or something and just learning how though.

Do you ever like nod your head to the beat or anything like that when listening to a song you like? It's ok if you don't, but if you ever find yourself doing some kind of movement due to the music you're listening to, dancing is just an extension of that impulse.

Screw wearing ties in general, but you don't need to use an elaborate knot, unless your boss specifically calls out the Simple/Oriental knot as unsuitable and forces you to have a more elaborate knot. In which case, what kind of fresh hell company are you working for?

This is also called the Server knot, because its what 99.9999% of servers tie for jobs that force them to wear ties. The half-windsor knot is one extra step (step #4 in the linked diagram) beyond the Simple/Oriental/Server knot, and its acceptable in every occasion. Its also really funny once you can tell the difference, because you'll see really famous people on TV with the simple knot.

If you tie a half-windsor or larger knot, you can undo the button on your collar and use the tie to keep it in place - assuming you have collar stays and the lapel isn't crazy long. I had to learn all of this the hard way, because my dad was a teamster, and it took 3 years of working retail for a place that didnt accept the server knot to feel comfortable. It was also in California, which is a big :lol: because only peons wear ties there.

I'm mostly a complete adult, but thats only because I compare myself to my :airquote: adult :airquote: parents.

"hnngg all it takes is you know how to read" hey I have to navigate a grocery store and understand what ingredients neededn too

When I say I suck at cooking, it’s not the part where I’m actually cooking, but the logistics of cooking and trying to avoid recipes with 15 ingredients that will go bad/need storage/have to be frozen. My dream cookbook would give you a list of 10 ingredients and like 20 different dishes you can make with it.

Top Cop
At my brother's wedding, we were getting all dressed up, and he confessed he couldn't remember how to tie his tie. He wore one for work for several years; in the past. I half-windsored him up; making fun of him the whole time. He's my brother so I'm allowed to laugh at him in his moment of need.

I tried to run away. To take the easy way out. I'll live through the suffering. When I die, I want to feel like I did my best.
i tied up like 10 ties when i was in high school and have just picked out one of those off the hanger for the past 15 years if needed. Probably could not do the adult thing now, but forethought saved me from caring I guess.

Oh yeah this ones a fun learning curve.
Best thing you can do is find your nearest solicitor if you don't know one personally. Tell them that your doing that and they'll handle the rest/tell what to do next.

Mostly its signing things, getting things witnesses and contacting a funeral home to make funeral/burial arrangements. It can also be pricey so its an added level of suckiness.
