Cherokee Fatal 2 9/28/23

Short sleeve with tie has always been an abomination. Short sleeve with no tie is ok.
Color me educated. I suddenly feel like such a rube.

Just for clarification, at which fashion week was this new NORMAL LAW established? FBW thing?

Sometime before my time, it’s how I was taught. Not that I’m an officer in the fashion police dept or anything. it’s just how it was related to me. :)

Copy. Thx. Thankfully, I no longer have to wear a monkey suite. That said, I kinda liked the monkey suite. Made fashion questions much easier for my wee noggin' to answer.
 
I'm not getting it... Have short sleeved shirts somehow become anathema for pilots now-a-days?

Not for pilots. But in the wider spectrum of the world, it's a weird look. I hate it. But I do it.

If I walked in to sign closing documents and the escrow agent had a short sleeved shirt and a tie I couldn't take "Milton" seriously.

I'm not sure to what sartorial standards ol' John comported himself. But he sure did scribe some damned fine literature. Actually, I think they wore "Cravats" back then, not Ties. 😁

As a new private to a new unit I was destroyed for showing up in short sleeves and a tie. Today, 30 years later, this is normal and accepted. C'est la vie.
 
Presented without further comment.

Have already been corrected once at a convenience store. Made a comment to a guy as I was walking by his truck from my truck, my 89 Dodge W450 to his 2021 Dodge whatever. Said “nice Dodge”. He replied “it’s a Ram, thank you”. Whatever. Sheesh.
It’s not a Mercury, Daffy, it’s a FORD!

Seriously though. Driving through downtown Phoenix you hear this ROOOOGGG, HASAAAAAAARGH, HAAAAAAARG and here comes a Dodge Charger rolling by at 15 mph, 22 year old behind the wheel, IROC Girl in the right seat and a Luke AFB sticker in the windshield.

It’s not a Mazda, it’s a 3.
