Join the fun -- submit your own horrifying sweater here and we'll post it along with comments from our resident knitwits. Just e-mail us a picture.

Alex from Northwestern (go Wildcats!) sends this picture of his friend in Allison Hall (the dorm where the BadSweaterGuy team met). "I actually was on a hunt for a date party costume at Viva Vintage and found it in the $1 bin. After berating the staff for letting a treasure go so cheaply, I then took it home. I wear it to the last day of my least favorite class of every quarter." Thanks Alex, I imagine you're getting as many dates as we did in college.

Still taken from the rejected tapes for "My Super Sweet 16." He may be daddy's little angel, but this picture got him removed from MySpace. Beastly. Be our guest, be our guest, put yourself out of your own misery. One dollar? Sir, that's two dollars too much.

Ryan from Ohio (think he worked at the Marshalls, too?) send these Christmas treats. "I wish I could say we have dressed like that every Christmas, or everyday for that matter, but it was a special event. My cousins and I dug up some truly heinous sweaters out of the attics of our parents to help make a very special retro holiday." Thanks Ryan!

We're sure your parents love you -- but this is pushing it. It's a very special Sharks and Jets Christmas. In the middle, what happens to all those penguins who don't survive the long march. The fur is soft and water resistant.

An anonymous fan from Virginia (wouldn't be Langley, would it? We have ways of making you talk) sent in this gem from a bad sweater party (at least that what he claims. We think these guys were dressed for a Saturday night on the town).

A very Sentox Christmas. On the left, it tries to say: Fruity! Really says: An apple a day keeps the sex away. In the middle, our friend is thinking, perhaps this butch scarf will hide the pain. Dream on. And on the right, tries to say: Nutcracker sweet! Really says: King of the sugar plum fairies.

Rob from Boulder kindly sent two sweaters to our cause -- but was too ashamed to actually wear them. Pussy. Luckily Kevin, sporting his new "enforcer" hairdo, agreed to model the horrors. Mostly because he has no shame left.

Journey to the Center of the Girth. Tries to say: Don't tread on me. Really says: Oh wait, you already have -- twice. (Added bonus: It repels water).

Transformer Optimus Prime fights a God's eye to death. You'd think the dreamcatcher would have caught a nightmare like this. Tries to say: Inuk-chuk! Really says: Imagine the tears he would have shed over this.
