Short sleeved jumpers. Why the dickens?

Discuss. Jumpers are for cold weather; short sleeves are for hot weather. A marriage of the two makes me uncomfortable. It doesn't affect me directly. I didn't accidentally purchase a short sleeved jumper. Why would I do such a thing? I merely became aware of their existence and rightly questioned it.

Also I so very nearly signed up for Nano just now. OH GODS. I might leave it till very much the last minute so I don't have to spend too long feeling committed. Possibly I should make a poll about subject matter. But then random interlopers might steal my subjects. OH GODS. Nothing about Nano makes me easy. Oh gods.

My ear itches like bally bally heck.

ETA. I just read this on Wikipedia and it made me cross:

'Outside of the United States, there is a burgeoning stand-up comedy scene in Canada, the UK, Ireland, and the Netherlands....'

I didn't not know that about American-English burgeoning. But basically the whole 'stand up comedy' article is mis-named - it should be 'American stand up comedy'. It talks about the origins of stand up being 'in various traditions of American entertainment popular in the late 19th century', not really saying owt about European music hall and then ignoring stuff like ENSA and The Windmill. It's wholly about US stand up: that 'burgeoning' thing is the sole reference to other countries.

My ears cease to itch, hurrah, and Nano STILL perturbs me. What to do, what?

Oh, I didn't really realise it was meant to be about stand up in general. Dude. That's quite scary yes. Wankers all of them.
