kristine... don't read this

I'll admit it... I'm a huge fan of the Snuggie. While most of you might disagree, I can only say one thing... YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE MISSING OUT ON! The Snuggie might be one of the most underrated products of my generation. It didn't help that it was promoted on some of the worst infomercials known to man. Had it been promoted correctly, there would 2 or more Snuggies in every household in the country. Here are my thoughts...
1. It is the most versatile blanket on the market
2. It is the warmest blanket of its kind (and by that i mean throw blankets and blankets for watching tv and sitting on the couch)
3. The sleeves offer you the use of your hands and if you like to sleep with your hands behind your head, you can do so while keeping them warm
4. I got the hoodless one, but a sleeve with your arm removed can double as a cap to keep your head warm (see picture)
5. If you sleep during the day in a well lit area, just pull the sleeve over your eyes, but above your nose and it doubles as an eye cover, effectively blocking out the light and allowing you to nap better
6. However... you cannot wear it to football games and stand up and cheer or go dancing or mow your lawn in it (it is like a hospital gown without the tie in the back)
7. If they put a tie in the back, then you could use it for above said uses... in which case, Kristine would be completely embarrassed, because I would probably never take it off
8. The skull and crossbones look is EXTREMELY manly.

OK, I've probably gone on WAY TOO LONG and beat this into the ground. I will continue to wear my Snuggie only at work, out of public view, and cry to myself when people make fun of me for wearing it. Still, probably the best $15.75 I spent all year

Ok first of all...just a little gay, but that's ok. Second, put velcro instead of ties in the back, but DO NOT wear it to the state football game

Deborah still hates my Snuggie, but I have to agree, it is cozy!! Our new puppy really likes mine, and has successfully stolen it from me on a routine basis. All I have to say to the haters is, well, you obviously haven't tried one!!
