It’s National Bow Tie Day! Watch Bill Nye Teach Chris Hardwick to Tie One

It’s National Bow Tie Day! Had I realized this morning I would not have worn a T-shirt and felt like an underdressed slob all day. If you forgot your bow tie, there’s still plenty of time to don one for the last few hours of the day, and if you need a refresher in tying a bow tie let our friend Bill Nye show you by proxy as he shows Chris Hardwick.

This video is over a year old, but we can’t think of a geekier way to celebrate National Bow Tie Day. Alright, maybe there’s one way. Matt Smith “Bow Ties are Cool” GIFs:
