Oh, man. I used to dress exactly like this in college when I couldn't afford actual full on suits and ties. I wish the construction companies I interned for made me wallow in the mud like this. Who doesn't love a well-dressed sloppy nerd?
The audience never questioned why a butler would go to the effort of dressing in perfect white tails in every episode. He just looked the part and never disappointed in looking immaculate in every scene he was in. This is from one of my all-time favorite episodes when the lord of the manor asks him to tend to needs of the spoiled nephew. The amount of messy hijinks the kid put this poor man through was award-winning. Mr. Banker, the butler, had on a brand new white tails outfit in all of his scenes, each one as pin-drop perfect as the last, only to end up in some sort of amazing mucky mess.
I know this image is AI but it could easily be a still from some show from the 80s or 90s. I don't really watch TV these days but I wish more modern sitcoms leaned into the "well-suited businessman gets messy" trope.
First day on the job at the local construction company has me wading through the mud to find the boss's Rolex. I was told to "dress smart" on my first day, so I bought about ten new suits with complete accessories. Little did I know that "dressing smart" meant natty T-shirts, blue jeans, and work boots here.
A stillshot of a messy game show host after he got a little too close to the "Dunk Pasta Sauce Through the Hoop" challenge. He was still in the middle of announcing the rules, standing underneath the hoop, and, well, the aftermath is here for all of us to see.
This was one of my favorite episodes from the 80s when the lawyer dad accidentally gets hypnotized by his children aspiring to become a magician and then proceeds to demonstrate his new line of giant, pie-tin-shaped easy chairs to potential investors at his workplace by deliberately filling one up with chocolate mousse and then plopping himself onto the seat, all with the same glassy-eyed expression on his face. In his brand new white suit, nonetheless! His expression at the end of the episode when he finally snaps out of it with the magic word is priceless.
Right after this shot, a giant vat of cream emptied right above him. After all was said and done, he got up like a champ, shook the talk show host's hands with a smile, and gave a wave the audience to wish them a good night.
The famous blockbuster actor in all the action movies decided to drop by The Tonight Show, starring Johnny Carson. He definitely played up the entire "acting like I'm angry after my beautiful tuxedo gets ruined". What a professional.

I met Marie while working in Syracuse in the late 1980's. I had to drive her around and I mentioned how much fun pieing guys must of been. Her eyes lite up and said she lived piei g her brothers. She took several herself
I've recently become a fan of going out dressed up and shoving a cream pie in my own face in public. I'm really starting to enjoy hitting myself in the face with cream pies in public in front of people.
