The Snuggie™—that adawable bwanket with sweeves that's basically a hoodless monk's cowl with a trademark—has inspired all sorts of reactions, from snickering to wanting, with its instant-classic commercial. ("Blankets are okay but they can slip and slide. And when you need to reach for something, your hands are trapped inside!") With the Snuggie™, your hands are free to work a remote control, massage your lover's feet, or pound Jäger in public. New York's FIRST Snuggie Pub Crawl is in the works, and already over 50 Snuggie™ enthusiasts have signed up! The date is still T.B.D., but the vision of a mob of pseudo-ironic drunks stumbling around in their creepy Snuggies™ makes the ritual orgy scene in Eyes Wide Shut seem somehow comforting by comparison. And while we don't want to contemplate what a drunken Snuggie™ hook-up would look like, now we can't help ourselves! [Via AntiKris, whose step-mother is sewing her a Snuggie for the occasion.]

Those Mariachi guys piss me off when you enter a mostly silent subway car.

The original product, before the corporate aholes stole it: http://www.theslanket.com/. It was available for years.
I could see the Bloods adopting this as their new gang uniform, but wait, no where to pack a gat.
um in case no one noticed...it's not a slanket or a snuggie...IT'S A FUCKING BACKWARDS ROBE!!!!!
I saw this commercial and at first thought it had to be a joke... almost as good at the remote control for the clapper (because reaching for the remote is sooo different from HITTING THE LIGHT SWITCH).
Snuggie is just another word for FIRE HAZARD.
bravo John. Amazing write up.
There will be lots of tripping and falling on sidewalks.
Who wants to see a bunch of ugly drunks with puke down the front of their Snuggies?
Red...like the blood of Christ...(shivers).
Can't wait to see video on YouTube after this event of police beating all the Snuggies because they believe them to be a terrorist cult.
Snuggies are the new Trucker Hats! Take note, ironic persons!
I really would like to see it called "Slanket Pub Slink"
Does anyone know where you can buy one of these in a store in NYC?, preferably in Midtown. It's a gag bday gift for an obsessed co-worker. Please lemme know.
