Humanity has a lot of important unanswered questions. For example, are we alone in the universe? What comes after death? Is it possible to travel faster than the speed of light? But all these discussions will have to wait because there's one that is much more important: When giraffes go to work, do they put the tie at the top or bottom of their necks?

The question was posted on Twitter by comedian Jeremy Hammond, and the internet is divided once again. Post your answer below and don't forget to vote for your favorites!

Half prefers top, half prefers bottom. It’s a tie.

Where the ties are worn depends on social status: boss giraffes wear them on top, middle management in the middle, simple clerks at the bottom.

Those of you who say the left picture looks better is obviously looking at it merely from a human's perspective. You know how that's highly inconsiderate towards giraffes? Because, basically, what you're saying is that if they don't look like us shortnecks they'll look ugly and undesirable as the long-necked creatures that they are!

As they wear camouflage, giraffes probably do not wear a tie at all, as it does not combine nicely.

Depends. If their in the open, maybe being chased by predators, they'd want the tie high up so nobody could grab on to it. But during lunch grazing the tree tops, they'd put the tie down low so they wouldn't snag on a branch (or drop food on it). So you can often tell whether the giraffe is on a break or working, by where his tie is. Unless you're talking clip on's.

Bottom, the meaning of ties are to cover up the buttons, you can't cover all if you use it on the top of your neck, and you'll look ridiculous and you'll look like you want to hang yourself with it.

Giraffes wear their ties at the collar of their shirts like every other animal. Since a giraffe's shirt would only cover its torso, the tie would go at the bottom of its neck. For those of you who think that a giraffe would go shirtless and just wear a tie, where do you think giraffes work? Chippendales?
