The WTF Snuggie Blanket: Fugly But warm
The WTF Snuggie blanket works!
Sure, it’s ugly as all get-out, and it’s not likely to heat up your sex life. And, yes, it’s basically a backwards robe, but it’s long enough to cover my 6′ tall husband’s legs and feet without being so bulky that shorties like me feel engulfed.
I *heart* my Snuggie blanket with sleeves, and so does VH1. Even more: we *heart* how it’s let us shave heating costs.
But that doesn’t keep us from chuckling at this video.
*never tease someone who is dieting* *never tease someone who is dieting* *never tease...
Ya know… I have one of the ugliest things in creation. It’s a down comforter with zippers and velcro (ick velcro, but anyway…) You can wrap it around you and bolt it together and it becomes the ultimate Saturday morning garment (sans monster slippers, which I STILL don’t own.)
It’s awesome.
So I have absolutely no trouble believing this is just a damn nice thing to have.
Especially since I have more air leaks than wall in my top-floor Brooklyn apartment.

back to coding…
I just started wearing my favourite shabby housecoat backward. It almost works.
I need to get one of these for my husband. He’s wearing thermal underwear underneath sweat suits. I’m wearing a t-shirt and really ugly shorts.
What is amusing is that the roles were reversed 10 years ago.
Our roles reversed, too. When we first got married, I was never warm in the winter. Never, ever, ever. He, on the other hand, slept in the nude on top of the blankets with the fan going even on the chilliest of nights.
Now? He wears flannel pants, socks, slippers, a t-shirt, a sweater and a robe. AND his Snuggie. For the most part, I’m in lightweight knits until it’s time to sit down and watch TV. Then I lurves my Snuggie, if only because it disguises how things kind of “blend” together the instant I sit down.
those Snuggie infomercials draw in my attention like a magnet, though i haven’t gotten the point of actually buying one yet
