No but seriously, how do you get ties to do that?

I don't know what it's called but it's fairly easy once you get the hang of it. You have to loop it on both sides.

I wanted to be Castle on that show, Castle, then I realized it's just a television show called Castle.

He actually did it wrong. There's supposed to be a slight indent in the middle, right below the knot

For a wider tie, that looks like a skinny tie I think the way he did it is fine.

It's called the Windsor knot. Just FYI. Google it and you can find some how-to vids/step-by-step tutorials. Then you can look like the hottest serial killer EVER too.

EDIT: It actually looks more like the half-windsor. oops.

I wanted to be a Power Ranger. Preferably the Green or Black one. The Green one had a flute that could summon dragons and the black one was breakdancing while beating people up. That's hall of fame status.

I actually think its just a really tight windsor. The half windsor is always kinda crooked/uneven up top, but in the picture it looks too even up top to be a half (due to the double loops). Then again, the angle we are looking at it from kinda brings in a little doubt..

I wanted to fly those. I still do. I remember taking a PT outside and saw 2 F15's flying overhead. I had to stop in the middle of my section and just watch.

I can't figure out how to get my ties to not look that, but I'm almost positive I'm not tying a windsor.

edit: I'm apparently tying a "shell knot," because I do that goofy thing where the back/small end of the tie is facing backwards. The knots turn out pretty fine, with a tie with proper material you can get the dimple easily, but the backwards thing is dumb.

Originally mathematician, but that changed when I discovered I could write. I still have dreams of living like a pauper out of LS, saving up a ton of money by the time i'm 30, and taking a year or two vacation to try to write a novel. I'm the kind of guy who has a vague idea of where I want to go and will explore lots of different avenues while waiting for a good opportunity to arise rather than having a goal 10 years in advance, so it might end up being something out of left field.

But probably copyright law, trying to get into pro writing.
