I don't expect you to wear a tie, sw, for you are a drunken Irish peasant and such a garment could easily become entangled in the mechanism of your tractor, but these days I note that supposedly decent, honourable people are dressing for work as if they are prepared for bed; it is deeply distressing for those of us who retain some standards.

Since when did those little girly socks which stop at the rim of the shoe become legal for men to wear? Blokes'll be wearing dresses next.
