    It needs more chaos, randomness, and abstractness. Unmatching colors, different patterns, realistic and unrealistic together, and just more to truly assault the eyes. The one you made is one that you would still wear but no one would disown you for it. That's what we should be going for.

      4 with each being different and wrong in some way, 1 is just random enough to be fun, 2 is not as random but its an even number, 3 is fine since they will make a triangle and subconsciously you will see symmetry even if not oriented correctly it will be whimsical, 5 and up and it starts to get too crowded and will never drop into uncanny valley or go too far and become fun again. For example the Titans from Attack on Titan, they are deep in uncanny valley but because of their execution they are a brilliant art design.

    One thing that the disturbing reindeer face had that the final product didnt was the face element. When uncanny valley goes for the face, its a whole new level of disturbing. The eye divets paired with the smile are what did it for me too, because not only was it in the uncanny valley, but it looked like it was faking its happiness.
    Just another layer of psychological horror to think about for next year.

    the top ugliest was like that because the "hairy" texture was actually in place of hair, and looked greasy. In the version you made, the beard doesn't look nearly as bad as that reindeer. The reindeer also had red eyes and an expression that looked like a serial killer that this one was lacking. Cringy Christmas words would have made it weirder, as well as ornaments. For all the hate you gave the 3d Christmas tree sweater, I don't see any 3d things except for those bows, which aren't that noticeable.

    Still not as bad as that brown reindeer one, that thing was just disturbing... I think more brown and perhaps having the bow be bright yellow and on the collar would be even worse. Also, each snowflake should have one yellow jewel glued on, but so small and almost the same yellow that it would be close to unnoticeable. Last thing: I think part of ugliness is if the sweatter looks uncomfortable to wear, so perhaps use a material that looks like it would itch when you touch it.

    1. Move the bow up just a bit so it’s between the end and the elbow, more irritating
    2. Add a bunch of fake Christmas tree vine wire things around the other arm, but not fully attached, so they float around it.
    3. Add the belly back, but just on the back, and randomly skewed in clumps of rows.

    Santa's feet were the only thing about it that was even that bad. There were at least 3 sweaters on your quiz which were worse. Needed a creepy character whose eyes were open too wide, more 3d objects, the socks should have been different colors, and a gross hairy beard instead of a soft looking one. Also, you can barely tell the snow is yellow because the red in the background is so bright.

    Buttermilk Pancakes
    Ingredients
    2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
    3 tablespoons sugar
    2 teaspoons kosher salt
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    2 ½ cups buttermilk
    8 tablespoons unsalted butter, 1 stick, melted
    2 eggs, whites and yolks seperated
    1 tablespoon unsalted butter, plus more for serving
    blueberry, optional
    chocolate chip, optional
    maple syrup, for serving
    Preparation
    1. In a large bowl, add the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda and whisk to combine.
    2. In a medium bowl or liquid measuring cup, add the buttermilk, melted butter, and egg yolks and whisk to combine.
    3. Add the buttermilk mixture to the dry ingredients and gently fold with a rubber spatula until just combined.
    4. Add the egg whites and fold until just combined. Be sure not to overmix. Some lumps are okay.
    5. Let the batter rest for 15-30 minutes at room temperature.
    6. Add the butter to a cast iron skillet and heat over medium low heat. Once the butter has melted and is bubbling, reduce the heat to medium-low and add ⅓ cup (75 g) of batter to the pan.
    7. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until bubbles start to appear on the surface. If adding any toppings like chocolate chips or blueberries, sprinkle over the pancake. Flip the pancake over and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
    8. Serve the pancakes with butter and maple syrup.
    9. Enjoy.

    Knowing that there was going to be a hair element to the final design, that was the first thing I searched for simply because I hate it. The fact that it ended up being Sherpa fabric made me feel absolutely repulsed; Can't stand that fabric and it's the reason why I only buy off-brand Ooodies due to the official ones being lined with it. Aside from that, those feet are the next worse thing. Well done! 👏🐺

    If you wanna make it worse you gotta have a lot of different colors. Make none of the colors match or compliment each other. Also add more 3D elements in random assortment and make them more bulky. Last suggestion is to make the base of the sweater color abruptly change once or twice. Make the color change uneven I think would add a layer of unsatisfied that you hate to look at

    Things to make it worse- hair on the tops of the feet and on the back of the hands (with a different material). Yellowed/damaged toenails/fingernails. A mismatched hood with reindeer antlers (or any deer antlers, the further off the better). I feel like the singular bow wasn't enough dangly bit, so maybe like those tassels that you see on old cowboy/native american clothes but tinsel? You can also do double *you*, where tiny santa is up top, but it also looks like the bottom of your shirt is riding up and your belly is poking out too. Or even better, make it a tied-off sweater with your actual belly showing.
