Latest entry by Mark Cuban on his blog, about why we don’t need suits and why he refuses to wear a suit. I guess if you have as much money and power and awesomeness as he does, you get to make the rules.
Why am I such a suit hater ? I’m not a suit hater, I just could never think of any good reason for any sane person to wear a suit in the first place.
Exactly what purpose does a suit serve ? Why in the world are so many people required to wear a suit to work ? Do the clothes make the man or woman in the western world today ? Does wearing a tie make us work harder or smarter ? Is this a conspiracy by the clothing, fabric or dry cleaning industry to take our money ?
Or are we all just lemmings following a standard we all know makes zero sense, but we follow because we are afraid not to ?

I quite agree with this. I wear a tie everyday and cannot figure out why. I’m far more productive when I’m not choking. Oddly enough, I was going to wiki ties and find the man responsible for them. And then I was going to curse his family.
