I think the basic idea of a tie is funny. It's a long wedge-shaped strip of fabric you place around your neck in a noose-like fashion tied in a very specific way.

Doesn’t believing in (a) God constitute a religion (even if it’s not an organised one) in itself?
And how on earth does a nose “shut down”? ![Err](http://forums.macnn.com/images/smilies/bugeye.gif)

How dull. I had visions of you walking into a new friend’s house and your nose suddenly folding and squishing itself in to disappear altogether from your facial features.
