Me either!
I don't do those things anymore.
At my first job I was a press photographer. I spent a LOT of time up at the state legislature in Montgomery, AL. The legislature decided they needed to wast more time and passed a rule that anyone on the floor needed to wear a coat and tie, including the press.
The press room all went to thrift stores and bought some of the ugliest sport coats and ties on the planet. We all look like Herb Tarlick from WKRP. We tried hard to make the ties not match the coat.
It was the 1970s so UGLY clothes were in style. The legislature finally changed the rule to exempt the press from a tie but no jeans or t-shirts.
I learned so much of how politics REALLY works. It is disgusting.
