Ugly sweater and more...

[Roober]

Well, since this board serves a wide knowledge base for everything, figured I would get a feel from the other guys here...

I have never been one to enjoy drawing attention to myself. I don't really like wearing elaborate Halloween costumes, don't really wear outrageous jewelry or anything, and most recently, I didn't participate in the ugly Christmas sweater thing at work.

Just curious...
1. what you guys do for these type of events?
2. Does it come across as uptight?
3. I suppose women could see this as not being a "fun guy"? (not like it matters at work though)

I don't know what it is, but it is just not in my comfort zone

I agree that it's a bit over the top and not always my cup of tea either. The xennial-millenial generation seem to be a bit obsessive about dressing up.

The secret is not to take it too seriously. I tend to just get on with it and treat it as just part of the social. It ain't really a thing.

I have done the ugly Chrismtas sweater parties. Lots of drinking and fun. The sweaters were quite itchy and uncomfortable though lol.

Its like anything else....what you make of it.
