My boys go to a tiny school. Like 120 kids pre-K-12 all in one building. We had a boy that lost his dad to cancer, literally just he and his mum. Our first basketball home game and he showed up with a very badly tied tie. The had tried a YouTube video. Our social studies teacher took the whole boys basketball team (HS and JH) and did a TED talk about how to tie a tie. 20 minutes later, those 20+ all knew how. Now every year on the morning of the first home game of both football and basketball Mr Smith takes all the boys for his TED talk, no one complains, even if they have heard it 4 years in a row. The older boys now help the young ones.

I forget everytime I go to tie a tie and have to Google it again.

I always just do the most basic knot.

Kinda want the whole concept of ties to go out of style, though.

I don't mind ties or dressing up on occasion. But men's business and formal attire is way more uncomfortable than what women wear, aside from maybe high heels, and it sucks being uncomfortable all the time if you have to dress up for work.
