Heck yes! I have quite the story behind it, too.
In my freshman and sophomore years of high school, I had built up quite a big reputation as "electro-man". What for? Sticking aluminum foil in power outlets. I've probably done that at least 3 dozen different times. It had just become the expectation of the class for when the teacher left for something, for me to make a run for the power outlet and do it. Have a few specific stories about those I could share, but not now. But anyway, my school's band does this one thing where everybody gets a prize for something. I got my "Electro-man" prize, and a box of aluminum foil. Afterwards, our jazz band had a performance, and my band director told us all to wear "zany ties", preferably ones that match our personalities. Well, I didn't own any ties, but I had a great idea for a tie that would match my personality. So I made one using cardboard and aluminum foil, probably took an hour to do. I show up, my band director asks me "what is that?" and made me take it off and he brought a few extra ties "in case something like this happened" so I got to wear a friggin bugs bunny tie. Determined to not let my hard work go to waste, I wore the tie to my school the day after, and got quite a few compliments. I think I'll end up wearing it again in like a month for the hell of it.
