Game Of Thrones House Sigil Bow Ties: Game of Bows

Posted in: Today's Chili

Ever since Doctor Who made bow ties cool, they have shown up in all kinds of forms. The latest in bow tie fashion are these Game of Thrones house sigil bow ties. I can’t exactly see Eddard Stark (for obvious reasons) or, well, anyone from Westeros wearing one. Still, you can enjoy them.

These neat bow ties are made by Etsy seller 2Marys and come in House Lannister, Baratheon, Stark, Targaryen and Arryn styles. All you have to do is choose your sigil and wear it proudly.

They will cost you just $10(USD), which isn’t too bad at all. Unless you pay the iron price, of course.

Budweiser Releasing Bowtie Shaped Cans: the 11th Doctor Rejoices

Posted in: Today's Chili

For some reason – probably because they are all closet Doctor Who fans – Budweiser has decided to introduce a bow-tie shaped can. Drunks everywhere are suddenly feeling all classy.

The company has been developing the can since 2010 and has made major equipment investments at its can-making facility in Newburgh to make the 16-step process to create the cans better.

But why make a weird shaped can and go through all of the trouble? Well, this new can holds 11.3 ounces of beer, compared with the traditional 12-ounce can. If enough suckers buy this they will probably eventually save millions by offering 0.7 ounces less for the same price. The company says the new can won’t replace the traditional Budweiser can, but I’m sure that if they have enough sales, they would love to sell you fewer ounces of beer.

The new bow tie cans will be available in a special 8-pack nationwide starting May 6.

Wooden Bow Tie Needs No Tying

Posted in: Today's Chili

Bow ties are cool. Doctor Who said so. Therefore you want to wear a bow tie for special occasions, or just to look awesome. The problem is, tying a bow tie (or tying any tie) can be a real pain.

So forget about tying a tie. Use a wooden tie instead. Now you can look just like James Bond, Doctor Who and many unknown hipsters, hassle free. The Two Guys Bow Tie Company makes wooden bow ties in a variety of different woods and patterns. Prices range from $45 to $65(USD).

Look good in wood. And if you ever want to change your look, just get out the sandpaper, put some new stain and varnish on these babies, and maybe engrave your own special design and you have a brand new bow tie.
