Guys who wear bow ties....

[Tommy_Carcetti]

I don't understand the concept of a guy wearing a bow tie who isn't:

a) Also wearing a matching tuxedo
b) A chauffeur or valet parker
c) A member of the Nation of Islam

What possesses someone to wake up and decide, "Hey, I want to wear a bow tie for the hell of it"? What is it that drives a person to want to look like Pee Wee Herman? What is there to be gained from wearing something that makes one expect you also to have a fake flower lapel pin that shoots water?

I just don't understand the concept of a grown man wearing a bow tie except under the aforementioned limited circumstances.

Can someone enlighten me?
