Nice looking jumper. Dark Grey, sort of an over jumper with 3/4 length sleeves. Looks nice on.

But the bastard catches it's sleavep on Every. Bloody. Door. Handle! Maliciously!

I am forever being jerked backwards in comedy fashion when attempting to enter a room and I've had enough.

The jumper is gonna get it!

LTB.

Could potentially kill you too.

My dh swears a jacket was out to get him.

I've attached myself to door handles with belt loops before Confused

Could you just walk around with your arms in the air like you just don't care?

That would solve your problem and make you look uber-cool.

Pass it on...I inherited my friend's bastard jumper! A child threw up on her (she was a TA) though not on the jumper but because It had a raised dark cream 'bobbly" pattern on it she kept looking down and thinking "shit....I missed a bit"!!

Lop off the sleeves. Show it who's boss.

MyCatIsABiggerBastardThanYours · 19/01/2016 18:22

See that's the thing. Most Clothing looks and seems inanimate but really they are sneaky feckers that like to strangle/trip/jerk you as bloody often as they can!

My bootcut work trousers try to kill me every time I walk down stairs.

GoringBit · 19/01/2016 18:22

Cut the arms off and burn them wear it as a body warmer.

RandomMess · 19/01/2016 18:22

Can you take in the sleeves so they are less roomy?

CaptainCrunch · 19/01/2016 18:23

I have a cunting homicidal cardigan with a similar MO.

MyCatIsABiggerBastardThanYours · 19/01/2016 18:24

I'm not convinced walking around with my hands in the air like I just don't care is in fact "cool" Apocalypse

Just saying.

Can you thread elastic through the cuffs so they are less catchy.

MyCatIsABiggerBastardThanYours · 19/01/2016 18:25

Fuckers. The lot of 'em!

Loving the phrase cunting homicidal cardigan ! CaptainCrunch Grin

SaucyJack · 19/01/2016 18:27

Move to an open plan apartment?

No doors. No problem.

Bettercallsaul1 · 19/01/2016 18:27

Cut off the sleeves - that will render it armless.

springscoming · 19/01/2016 18:28

Wind ribbon down each arm in a medieval or ballet shoe stylee?
Bugger to get out of when you're shitfaced though.

CaptainCrunch · 19/01/2016 18:29

I swear it's trying to kill me Rudolph. Gonna set fire to the fucker, that'll learn it Grin

ApocalypseNowt · 19/01/2016 18:29

'tis....

IHaveBrilloHair · 19/01/2016 18:29

Oh, I have a top like that, I have to walk through doors with my arms clung to me in a weird manner and I end up looking like I am t-rexing

Krampus · 19/01/2016 18:30

Throw it out and change the locks. You don't need knitwear that hinders your progress around the house.

MyCatIsABiggerBastardThanYours · 19/01/2016 18:32

Some good suggestions ladies. Thankyou.

As pleasurable as cutting it's arms off would be I can't help thinking it would wait until I wasn't looking at try and choke me on a coat hook.

Its actually the knobs that are the problem Bobbit the lot of 'em thats what I say.

Bettercallsaul1 · 19/01/2016 18:35

If you really think it is trying to top you, OP, I would unravel it - very slowly. No mercy.
