I personally consider "The Snuggie" a perfect example of how our world has willingly ceased to evolve. I think it is how we tell the inventors of the clapper "Oh snap, we're even lazier than you." I like blankets and books. Maybe I'm some kind of alpha male in this situation but I have some enjoyed some two on one action on more than one occasion. But no one ever talks about the other side of "The Snuggie".
Yes, a blankets covers you to keep you warm. But what else do people want to cover? Maybe their shame? I mean come on people, we were teenagers once. If you walk in on a teenage boy watching a late night cinemax flick under a cover, there is still a benefit of the doubt (Mainly for those who do not want to know that their sibling masturbates). But if you walked in on a teenage boy with no hands showing in a "Snuggie", there would be no comfortable level of doubt. The word 'busted' could be used in so many ways here.
But do you know who should buy a "Snuggie"? The parents of a teenage girl who has her new boyfriend over to watch a movie. They think they're so smart. I only say that because i thought i was so smart oh so long ago. Still, could you imagine being a father and having some punk kid laying on your couch with your daughter. You know she complains because you keep the thermostat on 73 to keep everyone almost comfortable to save on the electric bill, yet she still insist on having a blanket despite the additional warmth of that little pervert laying by her. How cool would it be to say "Why not use the Snuggie, so when i give you that 'Are you having a great time look', all four of your hands will be able to give me a silent thumbs up so we don't interrupt the movie."
But until the day i have a teenage daughter, I will frown on anyone that is too lazy to reach outside of a blanket to grab something. I have been lazy on occasion, but never that lazy.
