A woman comments about my tie in the elevator

[Holstein Bilter]

I was going up the elevator in our building(corporate)
and this older plump lady carrying about 10lbs of see's candy looks
over at me, wearing a charcoal 3button brioni pinstripe 150 w/Ted Baker tie that I tied in a Windsor(not everyday..but just for today).

She stares intently at my knot and says.."That's over the top"

I smiled and walked away, but was thinking(as she holds her lunch worth of 10lb chocolates to gorge away her life)..."Isn't this the pot calling the kettle?"

Regards,

HB

Was it a loud tie?

(Be glad she wasn't sucking on one of those See's chcolate lollipops! She might have spat chocolate-colored spit on your nice suit while condemning you and then REALLY runied your day!)

Maybe she wants to get her hands on you but is pissed that the knot might impede her speed.

Maybe she was referring to your make up that matched the tie

Isn't that often the response Windsors get in WAYWT?

.."That's over the top"

Sounds like she was, as well.
