Recently for our prom night I realised that I didn't know how to tie a bloody tie. 30 minutes on Youtube obviously didn't cut it, so I had to get a friend to do it, 'cause my dad couldn't do it either. The vast majority of my class couldn't do it either, in fact only 2 boys and 1 girl where able to properly tie a tie.
I've been practicing on and off since then (a week or so ago) and know I can finally do it so it looks decent. I can only tie one knot though (double windsor) and it still takes a few tries to get it acceptable, but it makes you feel a little more mature to be able to tie a tie.

Now my question is: how many teamliquidians can tie a tie?

Poll: Can you tie a tie?
(Vote): Of course!
(Vote): Nope, unable to do so..
Trying is the first step towards failure, and hope is the first step towards disappointment!

I've had to wear a tie a few times and I still don't remember how to do it. I forget it everytime I learn it.

Of course! I'm the tie guy for most of my friends.
Half windsor ftw.

yup
i only know 2 different ways though (don't know the names but they're the most common ones i'd imagine)
i learned during frosh week (one of my faculties' symbol is a pink tie)

i know like 10 different ways to wear a scarf which is somewhat related (euro loop ftw)
(\o/)  If you want it, you find a way. Otherwise you find excuses. No exceptions.

Of course!
I only know a few simple variants though, but of course I'm able to do it!

This poll should be restricted to people over 19/20 or something though. No reason to be able to if ur younger

Some school events do actually call for wearing a tie, as for me, I just get someone else to do it.

Nope! For some reason all of my friends know (or claim!) to be able to tie a tie, including my younger sister, mom and dad.

I'm not very fond of ties and I never wear them unless I absolutely have to.

I don't wear them any more but I still remember how to tie them and sometimes I tie my scarves like a tie for fun. Wish I had known how to go to prom though...

No. I own a single tie and I leave it tied. It's completely ruined from this.
