Exactly. I understand exactly. I just cannot stand slovenliness. Just cannot stand slobs in public.
When I go to wakes and funerals, I wear a suit. Always. Even weddings, my wife says “You’re going to be the only one there wearing a suit!” and I say “Don’t care.”

I attended a memorial service for an old friend who passed away last year. I went with another friend of mine. While most people were dressed decently there, he and I were apparently the only ones wearing customary funeral/memorial garb (black pants and jacket, white shirt, and tie).
