BGRH investigates: Seasonal Attire

Tom Dunne

Continuing our investigations of the modern man, and given the Season of Goodwill is almost upon us, we now turn our attention to that curious creation that is the Christmas Jumper.

Typically, the preserve of the older gentleman, such as the brethren right here on BGRH, it has come to represent all that is tacky about the festive season, a symbol of ridicule and perhaps an embarrassment to the younger generation.

However, being a person in posession of such jumper, I put it to the masses that these jumpers are in fact a statement of fun, made with a tongue firmly rooted in cheek, worn to induce a cringeworthy feeling in all assembled.

So, what say you - Christmas jumpers - hot or not?

Hot.

Zaph will be sporting one this year. Perhaps even at the BGRH beers that has yet to be organised.

As you are fully aware, I don't do sport, so I'm afraid you'll have to find another victim.

Wii boxing is a sport.

I love how you think you have a say in this.

Lucy Lu will back me up and you know you can't say no to us. :cool:

P.C.

It is great when you get to that place in life when you can do certain things, like:
- clean the wax out of your ears with your car keys
- burp in public
- tell really bad jokes
- wear a stupid jumper

and not care what other people think about you.

Life is good.

Having seen Tom Dunne's jumper, all I can say is they are totally wrong.

I will be buying you a Christmas jumper for Christmas.

And I have to say Tom Dunne's is very stylish.

Who messed with the poll? :eek:
