1. Make it a spring piece instead of a winter staple by pairing it with a miniskirt or a bikini—or better yet, just underwear. 

2. Donate it to an actual turtle. Turtles get cold too.

3. Eat it. Turtlenecks have lots of healthy fiber.

4. Sacrifice it to a pagan deity of your choice.

5. Stretch it around your bike for a v Pinterest–y bike cozy.

6. Plant it in the ground to grow a turtleneck tree.

7. Get a tiny turtleneck tattoo on your arm to remember all the great times you had with your turtleneck.

8. Give it to a friend as a present. Now it's her problem.

9. Use it as inspiration for a poem.

10. Take a long hard look at your life—why the fuck would you ever buy a turtleneck?
