‘Beam Me Up, Santa’ Ugly Star Trek Christmas Sweater: Live Long and Presents

Posted on by

Just when you thought the perfect Star Trek ugly Christmas sweater already existed (see: this ‘Trek The Halls’ ugly Christmas sweater), Numskull Designs returns with an even gaudier one in the form of this ‘Beam Me Up, Santa’ sweater. I think we can all agree that pun is a stretch, even for a tacky ugly Christmas sweater. The title of this article too.

The officially licensed Star Trek sweater is 100% knitted and available from Just Geek for $36 in sizes 3XS to 4XL. It was inspired by Star Trek: The Original Series, featuring the likenesses of Captain Kirk and Spock on the front, as well as the Enterprise, Santa and his reindeer, as well as some snowflakes, planets, and meteors. I… don’t remember watching that particular episode.

Sure, the sweater doesn’t make a lot of sense and is basically a garish mashup of Star Trek and Christmas themes, but I already ordered four with rush shipping, hoping they get here in time for my family to wear for our annual Christmas card photo.

Star Trek TNG ‘Trek The Halls’ Ugly Christmas Sweaters: Make It Snow

Inspired by the command division’s red uniforms from Star Trek: The Next Generation, Numbskull Designs has created these officially licensed ‘Trek The Halls’ ugly Christmas sweaters. Available from Just Geek for $42, the 100% knitted (not printed!) sweaters are available in sizes 3XS – 4XL for a size that will fit anybody. I can already see myself becoming indignant when this isn’t enough to clinch victory in the ugly Christmas sweater contest at work.

Upon closer review, I do have a hard time considering this an ugly Christmas sweater. I mean, it might actually be the most fashionable sweater I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen a lot of sweaters because I used to work sorting donations at a Goodwill. I’ve… smelled a lot of smells.

Imagine us all standing around a holiday fire in our Trek The Halls sweaters, sipping Saurian Brandy, and regaling our guests with our latest adventures aboard the Enterprise. Sounds like a dream, doesn’t it? That’s because it is a dream. I mean, unless we’re role-playing, in which case I call Data!

Microsoft Releasing Line of Ugly Holiday Sweaters

Posted on by

Microsoft, probably known for always being at the forefront of fashion, is releasing another small series of ugly holiday sweaters to commemorate some of its products of yesteryear. Obviously, these will be my go-to tops for Zoom meetings this winter. My go-to bottoms? Haha – bottoms. What is this, a physical workplace?

Available in MS Paint, Windows 95, and Windows XP varieties, the sweaters are pre-orderable in sizes small – XXXL for $70, with a portion of each sale being donated to Girls Who Code, a non-profit dedicated to closing the gender gap in tech. Unfortunately, the sweaters won’t ship until January 29th, 2021 – just in time to lose your family’s annual ugly holiday sweater contest by over a full month.

Obviously, if Microsoft wanted to make the ugliest holiday sweater they should have made a blue screen of death version. I get light-headed just thinking about a particular blue screen of death I experienced back in 2004. All that work I just did… gone. You know that may have actually been the first time I ever threw a computer tower down the stairs.

Complete Your Holiday Look with These Ugly Sweater Running Shoes

Posted on by

At last, we have something appropriate to wear with our ugly Christmas sweaters. Check out the ‘Ugly Sweater’ colorway of Brooks’ Levitate 2 running shoes. Much like ugly Christmas sweaters, you are either going to love these or hate them. I lean toward the latter.

They come wrapped up in a tacky green and red package, complete with reindeer, Christmas trees, candy-striped laces, and even a couple of little jingle bells. If Santa wore running shoes this would be his choice. But we all know that Santa doesn’t run. Have you seen the size of that belly? He doesn’t exercise at all. He basically bench presses glasses of milk and Christmas cookies all night once a year and then falls into a coma for the rest of the year until elves wake him in November, so he can do the same thing all over once again.

To be honest I find most sneakers to be ugly these days, and these are no more ugly than the rest. These ones just have a Christmas theme. You could probably wear these all year long and no one would give them a second look.

If you must have a pair of these to go with your holiday sweater, you can order them direct from Brooks for $150 in either women’s or men’s sizes.

Cryptocurrency Ugly Sweaters Are Already Worth Double What You Paid for Them

One of the biggest buzzwords in finance and investing these days is “cryptocurrency.” These tiny packets of computer-signed, highly-secure, and highly-elusive data represent value, and are trading at ever more insane rates of exchange due to their rarity. Think of it as a modern-day gold rush, with cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin surging to more than 17 times their value 12 months ago. Of course, their value could drop just as rapidly as they increase, and the process of selling and trading can take days, so it’s a risky game to play with money you can’t afford to lose. That said, these cryptocurrency sweaters shouldn’t have the same type of insane valuation shifts.

The guys at HODLMOON are making a series of ugly holiday sweaters, inspired by well-known cryptocurrencies, and they’re actually pretty awesome. They’re showing off their knit sweaters in Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin designs, as well as some of the lesser-known monetary units like Monero, Neo, and Polymath. Each one features the currency’s logo, along with its financial symbol stitched in like snowflakes.

They’re available in sizes Small through 3XL, and made from 100% acrylic. Best of all, they’re just $59.99 US Dollars each, which is like 0.003509 of a Bitcoin at today’s exchange rate. So how can you afford not to buy one?!?!? It’s a sure thing!

Mario and Zelda Holiday Sweaters: Merry Nintendomas!

Posted on by

Who said ugly sweaters had to be ugly? This year, why not celebrate the holiday season with some of your favorite Nintendo characters? With these festive Mario and Zelda sweaters, you’ll be ready to enter the world of classic 8-bit gaming just by getting dressed in the morning.

The first officially-licensed design features images of Mario jumping over a warp pipe with a piranha plant sticking out of it. Instead of sugar plums, visions of gold coins, 1up mushrooms, and power stars will dance in your head. It’s done up in a festive pale blue, red, and peach color scheme, and will look great paired with a pair of jeans.

The Legend of Zelda sweater features our green-tuniced, pointy-hatted hero Link, as he sets off on a journey to find power, courage, and wisdom in the land of Hyrule. Its decorated with images of a wooden sword, Triforce bits, and some 8-bit snowflakes to put you in the holiday spirit.

Both sweaters are made from 100% acrylic and are machine washable in cold water. They’re available over at ThinkGeek now for $49.99 each.

8 Games of Thrones Ugly Christmas Sweaters

Game of Thrones Ugly Holiday Sweaters

One of the more satisfying things when arriving at a party is making an impressive entrance by wearing something that gets people talking. An ugly Christmas sweater is good, but an ugly Game of Thrones christmas sweater is even better.

Winter Is Coming Ugly Christmas Sweater

This sweater comes in four different colors: Black, red, green and grey, but the depressing story of House Stark and in general anyone that’s “good” in Game of Thrones, makes the black color fitting. Starting at $22.99, ugly face not included.

Ho ho hodor Ugly Christmas Sweater, Game of Thrones

Who is Hodor? Some say he’s the real hero of the saga, and someone whose thoughts are concealed behind his ability to say anything but his own name. He’s a hero. He’s a giant. He’s hodor, and so will you be feeling like it when you wear this sweater. Available for $29.95.

Christmas Sweater, Game Of Thrones

Incest is thrown in our faces when we see Game of Thrones for the first time, and it also caused Jaime to throw Bran off the tower and break his legs. So remember, next time you see a pair of twins making out, don’t tell anyone about it.You can buy it for $29.95

Ugly Christmas Sweater House Targaryen

Coming in black, grey and white, the house Targaryen sweater isn’t that ugly if we’re perfectly honest. But still, the 8-bit like art on it fits the holiday spirit, when you want to feel like a the rightful owner of something only to be robbed of it by someone greedy. Starting at $38.

Tyrion Ugly Christmas Sweater

Maybe the perfect sweater for Christmas, as many people spend the holiday with their family, which they can’t stand (just like Tyrion) and make it through the trials by drinking their pain and agony away, just like Tyrion. You can buy it for $32.

Winter is Coming, Ugly Christmas Sweater

December and January are a perfect time to show you’re a fan of the most popular show on television by walking around with the most famous quote from the show. Even if you haven’t seen a single episode, there’s no way you have been able to avoid the famous saying of House Stars, so why not give in and flaunt it yourself. You can buy it for $29.95.

Game of Thrones Ugly Holiday Sweaters

Being a Game of Thrones fan is about choosing a faction and sticking to it. One great idea is showing up with your friends to a party representing different sides of the same conflict, and see what people react to the most. All three are available here

Let it Snow, Game of Thrones Holidays Ugly Sweater

The weather outside is truly frightful this time of year for those who aren’t too fond of the cold and snow. But if you’re a Game of Thrones fan? It’s an opportunity to have a little play of words with one of the show’s most popular characters, Jon Snow. Buy it for $23.26.
