QotD: Clothing

So I'm standing in the men's department, looking at the ugliest tie ever designed. Looks like someone rolled a Pepto-Bismol bomb into the bathroom at the Colorblind Scotch Tartan factory. Wave this thing at blind people and they grip their stomachs; wear it near a kennel and dogs fall over, ears ringing. You'd be more popular if you walked around poking people in the eye with the neck of a broken Tabasco bottle. On the other hand, it was on sale.
