Imagine bringing home your date and they take off their jacket just to show off the chest warmer.
Misread this as Elven Ways to tie a Scarf. Now I'm sad Legolas isn't going to gimme drip.
I thought it was 11 ways to tie a tie and thought it must have been a shit post when I saw the fourth one.
I was about to comment this!
We need more fashion advice from mythological races.
Same here!
I like how one of the ways to tie the scarf is "just don't tie it".
That's the one I typically use. Didn't even know (or care) it had an official place in scarf tying culture.
It seems to me that if you are going to include 4-in-hand, a traditional necktie knot, then you should include these: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_85_Ways_to_Tie_a_Tie (at a minimum) and possibly reference this: https://phys.org/news/2014-02-mathematicians-ways.html (177,147 ways). 😀
Thank you for providing the references, I was not aware of these!
No problem! I was once at a place that imposed a mandatory necktie policy. I hate neckties, so I thought I'd at least have fun with it. I wore ties as silly and varied as I could get away with and tied them different every day. That book was a boon.
Did you try the Back To The Future double tie?

A lot of those are just fancy nooses that can be used against you in a fight.
People can grab your hair and clothing in a fight too. It's best to go around naked and fully shaved in case someone decides to attack. Add a coating of oil for extra protection.
That's a great idea unless you're a Brazilian jujitsu fighter, then you want them to grab you so you can do fancy locks and break their fingers.
Apparently the thing I do is called a Parisian knot. Neat.
I didn't check the community name and fully expected one of these to be a noose.
Reverse drape tuck ftw
13C?! If you are wearing a scarf in 13C, you simply like wearing scarves and you should probably give in and get some silk ones for the rest of the year. Because that is not scarf weather, you are just dying for an excuse.
That's a weird way to spell scarf
Where's the Windsor knot?
Weirdly, the largest versions I found have the labels underneath instead of top:
