I will say, though, that the part in the commercials where they woman is warm inside her Snuggie but is holding an uncovered baby in her lap is shameful. Good thing they’re selling Snuggies for pets and kids now.

sorry, i hardly know how to behave on any site other than facebook anymore.

It’s really the product (not just the advertising) that is pretty pointless– and i’m not talking about Jenga itself, just the souped up version of Jenga. kinda like how they’re sellling million dollar condos in downtown salt lake and advertising it as the urban living experience. i mean, salt lake– urban? who do they take us for?

funny post. good job.

Nate, I hope you were laughing hard enough to launch into the foghorn.

Nici, thank you, although I would have been more flattered had you written “Contemporary!” instead.

Eliza, you have the old one? Eww.

Lenox, you are one of the few people I know who are contemporary enough to own the Onxy edition, what with your sauna and swingers-style home.

Ang, yeah, I wouldn’t look for the Onyx edition to be appearing at the Centerville Target any time soon. And rightfully so.

Troy, I’ve been chuckling about the bathrobe/snuggie trick all day.

Slade, Christmas was good to you this year, wasn’t it?

Kook, that’s not a bad point.

Anonymous, I’m going to steal your idea for an Onyx Chia Pet. And since you’re anonymous, I think I’m in the clear, legally.

Just livin the dream…

Let’s assume for a moment that our living room really is a frozen tundra and that any flesh exposed while reaching for the remote control or the phone really will be consumed with frostbite. How do they explain the gaping sleeves in these things? Isn’t the freezing air going to gush into that huge opening and put you into hypothermic shock? And how are those gigantic sleeve holes any different than sneaking an arm out of the top of a regular blanket for 4 seconds to change the channel from Matlock to Murder She Wrote?

But the part that really gets me in the Snuggie commercials is the scene where the family is sitting on the bleachers all decked out in their Snuggies. I’ve sat through my share of cold games…know what I wear that keeps me warm and gives my arms the freedom to move around unabated? A coat. And I don’t look like Princess Leah. Or crazy.

I’m sorry if I’ve offended any sucker out there who actually loves their Snuggie or is thinking about getting one. Here’s some steps you can follow that will save you the $24.95 plus shipping and handling:

A) Find your bathrobe
B) Put it on backwards
