    How many people can't tie a tie.

    I'm 32 years old and am just learning how to tie a tie. Am I the only one this like this? I still have to pull up a you tube video to figure this out

      It's like riding a bike. Once you do it, it's easy.

        Make sure it's long enough, and make sure you have a tight knot.

            About 15 years ago when I went to detectives, that was the first thing that I had to learn.

            No more patrol uniform clip-ons.

              Nope, I can't tie one. I'm a blue jean and polo shirt guy.

                Yup don't want the back longer than the front. One thing I did when I was a lazy guy was just leave em tied so when they went back on I only had to tighten em up.

                    I do that. Once I get a good knot and the right length, no sense in recreating all that work.

                        Just get a very large man to yell at you and tell you he's only going to show you once so you better pay attention. If you get it wrong he's going to put his size 13 boot between your back pockets.

                        ...worked for me during basic training.

                          Had a camp I went to in DC my junior year in highschool, and this is what I did for 5 days straight since I couldn't tie one even watching the youtube videos. Just take it on and off with out un tying the stupid things. One of these days I am going to buy one that has a noose print all over it.

                            I can tie them, but lucky I rarely have to wear them. If you never undo it you only have to tie in the first time.

                              Simple fix, tie it up in the closet. Square knot works just fine.. And no I can't tie one.
