Maybe this makes me odd, but can someone explain Quentin Tarantino to me? Why does he always show up at the Oscars looking like a slob? Does it cause him horrible pain and suffering to button the top button of his shirt and tighten the tie all the way up and groom his hair a little? Btw, to Mr Tarantino and other men: you are supposed to where a bow tie with Tux. I hate people that think they are too cold to dress up appropriately for events.

I'm the guy who discovered society now lets us get away with wearing Converse with business suits and who stopped combing his hair entirely about five years ago, so... I for one cannot answer your question.

Also, I think Tarantino is kind of a cool.

People like counter culture and contrarians. I mean, we're literally a country that was built on rebellion. It resonates with us. Screw the bow tie and that top button! Who cares? They are such silly social conventions anyway. Why do we wear dumb superficial pieces of cloth around our necks anyway? When you stop and think about it, it is all rather silly.
