I actually kind of like that, Holdfast.

I will now sit here and quietly contemplate the life decisions that have led me to this point.

How do you think I feel, then?

I not only forked over money in exchange for it; I actually intend wearing it in the summer!

I feel bad, 'cos I kind of like the tie too. I think it would look nice in summer, but I doubt I'd have the testicles to wear it

I'd wear it, too. With these shoes, which were described as terrible.

And linen pants and a light blue shirt? God, you'll look ridiculous, should be great.

There is something truly wonderful about walking out of the door in a completely tacky pastiche of an outfit. It's... liberating!

Light blue linen pants, actually. What color should the shirt be?

Ugliest tie? Someone needs to buy and post a pic of a Glennie. Game over.

By God man, you're right! I'm thinking very pale yellow or orange?

I don't mind it, I'd buy it if the chance arose.

So bad, I couldn't resist getting it. Will be wonderfully tacky in summer with a blue shirt and a cream suit.

Anyone got a worse one? I doubt it, but prove me wrong!

Oh you mean the surfer tie. I thought you meant the awful green one in your avatar!

Since FNB has not weighed in yet, might I suggest a more modern twist? Something more, as we say, hip?

At least the tie can be tied in a way & the jacket buttoned to conceal the surfer dude if need be. Those shoes were just horrible.
