Reminds me of the time I was in elementary school, wearing my ST Enterprise buttons. No, I didn't get punched.

That one in the middle is almost enough to make me start wearing ties in the first place.

I have a Dalek neck tie. Its' like a Trek one but with Cool as well as Geek. Had an aunt bring it over from the home country.

Oh my god, how much do I secretly want the one in the middle?

I received the tie on the left as a gift almost 15 years ago. (I just looked in my closet -- it's got a 1993 copyright date on it.) I've never worn it, even when I was rebelling against a ridiculous sales associate dress code that forced me to wear a tie every day for two years.

Beatles tie? No problem. Halloween skeleton tie? No problem. Superman tie? No problem. Rudolph the Red-Nose Reindeer? No problem? Disembodied Star Trek Heads tie? Nope, too weird for me.

Seriously, I go to Gen Con on a semi-regular basis, and that tie is still too much for me.
