Is a solid black suit appropriate business attire in the US?
No, not generally speaking. A solid black suit is typically considered formalwear. (Weddings, funerals, extremely formal occasions like a charity gala, etc.)
A black suit with pin-stripes or a charcoal gray suit are okay, though.
Feral on
every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.
When I say that I thought you were Winky I didn't mean that I normally think of you as someone who goes around groping people. I just meant that I didn't think you were anyone but winky.

Is there any type of business in which formalwear might be indistinguishable from business attire?
Other than hosting weddings and funerals
Note that I'm only asking this question to prove a point because a friend of mine is sperging about this

Have you guys seriously never encountered/witnessed this guy on the bus/elevator/on campus?
People like that deserve to be kicked in the face.
It's delicious. You have to seriously be trying to be that incredibly creepy.
You realize that unwanted sexual touching is criminal behaviour (we call it sexual assault).
If you're not doing that, you're still being pretty scummy for making these women feel as though they may soon become a victim of sexual assault.
I don't think anyone understands what I was doing here.
You took the joke just a few steps too far.
Puh-lease.
Seriously, though, have you guys ever witnessed these guys who are so fucking creepy it's unbearable? I've been on the bus when someone like this has been talking to some girl nearby. It's not like you can do anything, because they're not doing anything, they're just being so incredibly uncomfortable.

EDIT: Oh wait, is giving someone the forks not a thing in the US?
Nope, it's not.
Hmm, you learn something every day. Urban myth has it that it comes from mocking people by showing that you still have the fingers necessary to draw your bow.

Wiki has a good illustrative example of the power of the vicky:
On April 3, 2009, Scottish football players Barry Ferguson and Allan McGregor were permanently banned from the Scottish national squad for showing the V sign while sitting on the bench during the game against Iceland. Both players had been in their hotel bar drinking alcohol after the Scottish defeat to Holland until around 11 am the next morning, meaning that both of the players breached the SFA discipline code before the incident as well, but the attitude shown by the V sign was considered to be so rude that the SFA decided never to include these players in the national line-up again. Ferguson also lost the captaincy of Rangers as a result of the controversy.
It is sufficiently offensive that it destroyed the international careers of two professional footballers, and also that of their manager.

I've seen it plenty of times. And I'm the one that started the line of joking. But the seven year old sister thing was just really creepy.

Winky.
All walkin' around in public with your heat hangin' out.
the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
I was going to make this joke, but you have been having a rough time lately and I didn't want to hurt you when you were down, hoss.

Perhaps if you modelled formalwear.
Sometimes I forget that this is a sport with a fanbase of middle-aged, upper-middle class white guys. And then I'm forcefully reminded.

awrite
so is there any single player in this too?
I don't get it.
You took the joke just a few steps too far.
I'm just sitting here baffled at the thought that people might think you're serious
or what they're doing if they don't
It's an insulting gesture. Like flipping the bird.
He is making an obscene* gesture, Nerd.
*Note: not actually obscene
EDIT: Oh wait, is giving someone the forks not a thing in the US?
Nope, it's not.
It's occasionally meant to represent a vagina.
Hahaha, people.
Puh-lease.
