I don't need to see your cites, this is not a court case. :facepalm:

I disagree w/ your brown tie on dark suit suggestion. Regardless of your posts' contents, obviously your delivery leaves A LOT to be desired.
Go back and read my edited post, I softened it up for you

I'm not superior, I just know more about this particular topic.

Mostly through trial and error, unfortunately. I wasted a lot of money on shitty suits, shoes, ties, etc. I have an embarrassing list of mistakes, actually - $250 on Bostonians, $200 on Johnston and Murphys, $900 on a Hugo Boss suit, $500 on Joseph A Banks, hundreds of dollars on Brooks Brothers non slim fit shirts, my first suit being a black suit which I quickly learned was barely ever appropriate to wear, etc, etc.

I'd rather the OP didn't make the same mistakes - which he will if he listens to most posters here. It's pretty funny that you're even disputing this - just step outside in any city and take a quick look around. Most people don't have well fitting suits.
