Comment from Julie Helms

Excellent

This is well-written, best of the bunch. It's disgusting,too, which ties into 'ugly' in a different way.
I find the sweater on 2nd row down, 4over, especially creepy. It's like she stapled a baby to her chest. And nothing say Merry Christmas like that!

Haha thanks a bunch Julie. AI is really weird and sometimes seems to have a mind of its own when given a prompt. I used all 20 of the images it provided with no eliminations, which made this quite interesting. The bottom row is the most generic (those were the first ones, before I told the AI to start making the models from individual countries with particular things on the sweaters). The only image I unfortunately lost was one with actual elephant ears hanging from the sweater. That was super weird. 🦍

This is a great poem. You used your imagination on this one and I think it's hilarous. It is well organize and flows smoothly from beginning to end.

Well done and good luck in the contest.

I like how you embellished the contest entry with the new technology AI. I like each sweater and each model is beautiful. I wish you the best in the contest. Happy Holidays!

Thank you very much! There are a lot of free image engines that are quite good these days.

Ciao Harambe,

Love the two colours..mustard and brown , the combination is stunning.

I prefer without animals so I would choose across 5 ( Morocco ) down 3.

I don't like high collars cause most are itchy.

I have a phobia for hair even my own.

I get sick when I see a strand on someone's back.

I have always had long hair but NEVER loose.

I never wash my hair in the shower. It just makes me reel the thought of those strands over me.

And in the food , I would throw up.

I know it's just made up stuff but your explanation grossed me out. The item has lost its attraction.

PS I didn't know some people have hairy butts.

You certainly have a vivid imagination.

Thanks, you're the only one so far who has commented on the models! I've always thought those teacup looking collars looked weird and unsightly. And yeah I too have always hated sweaters for their itchiness, and I hate finding long strands of hair. It reminds me of when my mom would make sandwiches and occasionally one of her hairs would end up in it, when that bite if sandwich was halfway down my throat, and I'd have to pull it up. Fun.

Just reading the sandwich episode made my stomach turn upside down.

Once my friends in boarding school learned about my hair phobia, they had fun placing a stand in my food so often.
(sigh)
