I'm crazy and I know it, I write about what's happening in my head and my environment.
It might be very ugly, but with the way the winter is progressing this thing gets more and more attractive... (To keep myself warm, esthetically it's still ugly.) It seemed to be called the "Snuggie 2.0". I wonder how you put one on... Does it come with matching socks?
When I first saw this picture I thought it was a complete joke, but there is such a thing as a Snuggie, see: getsnuggie.com
There are a lot of parodies and jokes about the snuggie, including the snuggie sutra... (thesnuggiesutra.com)
But most important, the people over at gizmondo did a comparison test: Ultimate Battle: The Snuggie vs. Slanket vs. Freedom Blanket vs. Blankoat (2009-03-30)
"Unless, you've just awoken from an eight-month coma (...)" I didn't, but I suppose this kind of stuff doesn't get marketed here. For me a new world of keeping warm opened up... :)
It seems that the "Freedom Blanket" no longer exists, or at least its site... (According to Gizmondo they were the first to sell these things.) But you can always go for the Slanket... I'd like to have one, but the European site seems more dead than alive. Less colours listed, none available and lots of errors across the site (not to mention the expired security certificate)... These things would also be ideal to keep in the car, for when your heater or car breaks down and have to wait for some rescue... It's probably much more comfortable than the tiny blanket I have for emergencies... I guess I'll have to D-I-Y one. XD
