When you guys say that something flies, you need to determine from what perspective. That shirt and tie combination is very English "City lad". Ive seen a lot bolder on them too and less harmonious. The wonderful thing about research is that when it's accurate it doesn't need to explain itself.

The first link below is the original thread. Although the original poster on this thread stands for nothing, the shirt and tie do. I would appreciate it if the other images stayed where they were. Otherwise, enjoy.

Anyone who considers that combination akin to the seminal one presented on this thread could probably benefit from a refresher course. Allow me:

Capnpyro - I love the 'DO NOT WANT' graphic. What is the story there? I found a couple of others when I Googled it. Where is it from?

Ha, I think it started on somethingawful but I'm not sure, they have a habit of making 'macro' image graphics, where you take the same phrase and repeat it across a bunch of suitable pictures.. that dogs my favorite

I totally had that pegged as a Charles Tyrwhitt look.
