I hate turtlenecks. I have always hated turtlenecks.
My mother thought that I should wear turtlenecks. Every year, she would buy me a turtleneck.
Every year she would ask me if ever wore the turtleneck she had given me. Every year I would tell her that I hated turtlenecks, and that I would not wear it. That never stopped her from giving me a turtleneck the next year.
She is gone now. Died in 2010 at age 87. One thing that I do not miss is those goddamned turtlenecks.

Do you know how many poor children there are in China that don't have a turtleneck? Or carrots, broccoli and okra.

Its not a bad look but I don't like how turtlenecks feel. I heard a comedian once (I think it was Mitch Hedburg?) note that they feel like a really weak midget is trying to strangle you all day long. They're fairly warm but they make my neck itch and feel constrictive.
