    Ties. Silliest garment ever invented and worn by humans. (for men, anyway)
    if i'm wearing a suit i always wear a tie and will keep the tie on until im taking the suit off (ie wont take the tie off as soon as i leave the office/get to the pub/the church bit is done). it looks so much smarter  
    Not really. A tie on or off in itself makes no difference.
    imo it makes a huge difference 
    I dont wear a tie when driving to a client appt or on the train up to town l......but will out one on before going into the meeting. Unprofessional if not

    I hate the whole suit and no tie look. Either let us go casual or keep it smart - no ties just looks like we're all down the pub post work.

    Yes that's true. But I have never seen anyone in sportswear and trainers looking smart.

    Suits and ties are really a stuffy English thing, used to wear a tie for work for ages until I thought whats the point?  Appearance counts for less these days.  Just have one for Interviews, wedding etc

    Not as much these days, when people wear "Vans" with their suits!
    I think we've covered this before but people putting trainers on for their walk down queen Victoria street from the train gets up my nose. Not as much as those stupid scooters or fold up bikes but it aggravates me all the same 
    Hate seeing city workers in trainers. Mainly women in their smart clothes. Dont have wear high heels but surely they own pair of sensible shoes with a small heel. 


    Maybe they find trainers more comfortable than work shoes? Personally I see why they're doing it and don't see it as a problem personally. Doesn't affect me.

    I do find it irritating to see people getting irritated by stuff that they have no right getting irritated... 

    WORST loop of irritation ever.

    That's the point of this thread Daz - it's just stuff that annoys you. There doesn't have to be a reason, logic or personal effect. It's random shit minor or major...  :)

    One of the lawyers here just came out to moan that they are going to have to take a massive haircut on the deal they are working on.

    when you've been standing on the train and someone seated gets up and pushes past you to get off before you.  So they had a nice comfy seat AND they want to get off before.  I always block them

    I firmly believe men can carry off looking smart, suit or not, or they can't. I reckon it's genetic. 

    I have a mate that didn't own a suit for an event we were both attending. We ribbed him a bit about how he was going to have to buy his first one. He's 50 btw! 

    Anyway, to our great surprise he tells us soon after that, not only has he got himself one, but that he spent £450 on the thing. I think they saw him coming myself but, cos we're nice people, we all complimented him when he gave it its debut at said event. 

    The point is, literally within 20 minutes of arriving his tie's now askew, the top button's undone, his shirt's come untucked at the front and is hanging over the waistband, he's spilt something on his new whistle and he looks like Sir Les Patterson after weekend bender.

    I've seen this so many times over the years with so many men that I think you can either carry off a suit and tie or you can't and tbh there's probably no point trying and being uncomfortable at great expense. 

    Myself? I always look like James Bond going for a job interview of course...

    I am one of these people. I am 6 ft 2 and reasonably well-proportioned. Perfect candidate to look decent in a suit, you'd think. But no matter how much effort I go to, I end up looking like the exploded laundry bag in the old Kia-Ora cinema advert.

    How would they know that you want to get off if you've been standing all the time?

    They should wait till the train stops and let the aisle clear

    Letting myself get 90 pages behind on the takeover thread. Starting to read it again, but not quickly enough and getting 98 pages behind. Wasting best part of two evenings wading through the backlog for very little return. Best thing worth reading about was AUN's wang flasher.

    Still one day it will all be worth it, when the takeover is completed and having read the whole thread takes on the sort of kudos associated with having seen a 7-6 victory over Huddersfield.
