Jul 10 2008Tie Napkins: Who Wears A Shirt To Dinner?
I typically eat alfresco, which for some might mean outdoors, but for me means butt-ass naked. I don't care if it's a 7-course dinner or a box of Oreos, I need to be comfortable. Well, for those formal tie-only affairs come these Dress For Dinner Napkins. As you can see, they're napkins with ties printed on them. They come in four tie patterns and a box of twenty will set you back $5.95. Not bad considering the money you'll save on dry cleaning bills. The only problem is, I'm having trouble finding a place to tuck them in. Hold on, I've got it. I'll just make a little incision here below the Adam's apple and...I'm bleeding. Wow, a lot. Like a lot a lot. Great, now my napkin tie is rui....

i wonder if they have a more formal version of this (bow tie for the gent, expensive jewelry for the lady).
Or a less formal version (open-shirt, loose tie for the bloke, large breasts for the woman)

I thought I saw that guy digging through a dumpster yesterday...

This is why I eat naked; I then have no worries about ruining a white shirt. If things get messy, I just take another shower.
Simplicity is nice.

@7 You must get thrown out of restaurants a lot (and by restaurants, I mean fast food places).

I love the paper napkins! When I was growing up, us kids were forced to wear our paper napkins tucked in around our necks during meal times. I remember hating having to wear my napkin like a bib, but the older I get, the more sense it makes. Who wans to walk around with food stains on your clothes. Most guys are slobs and can't get through a meal without something getting on your clothes. Most people could benefit from a two napkin rule wearing one on the lap and the other tucked in the collar for complete protection.
