I once had a boyfriend who couldnt write unless he was wearing a n

I once had a boyfriend who couldnt write unless he was wearing a necktie and a dress shirt, which I thought was really weird, because this was a long time ago, and no one I knew ever wore dress shirts, let alone neckties it was like he was a grown-up reenacter or something. – Susan Orlean
