I have worn a tie on four occasions in the last year. The first was my Army tie. I wore it to Son1's graduation from Test Pilot School. The second was my Grinch tie. I wore it on the last school day before Christmas Break. The third was my Star Wars tie. I wore it to school on May the 4th. Lastly was the tie in the photo. It doesn't have a special name. I wore it to Son2's ceremony, where he received his Ph.D. hood. Only one of the ties has followed orders and returned to the closet. Yes, the Army tie. The others have found various places around the house to loiter as if waiting for someone to put them away. I can understand the Grinch tie being a problem about doing what it is supposed to do. What excuse do the other two have? Have you ever had to deal with clothing articles behaving badly?

Thank you. It is my favorite "normal" tie. Most of my ties have some sort of theme.

I used to have problems with my summer clothes getting smaller over the winter. This time, they got bigger!

I'm trying to get my summer clothes to get bigger before the really hot weather hits.

My clothes like to hang out on top of my dresser. Sometimes I can coax them into the drawers and closet.

I used to have a lot of problems with clothes behaving badly but over the years, they seem to have improved somewhat.

I was much better at keeping my clothes behaving well back in my Army days. I seem to have lost the touch over the years.

I try to get tough with them, but they just lay there and act like they can't hear me.

@DWDavis Ties can be very stubborn.
