Isn't this the second time this same viedo was posted on slog? Either you are really obsessed with this or forgot because Michael Phelps was sharing with you

"Breaking news: The Snuggie is dead."

Then stop posting about it. Especially the same videos that were posted before.

This makes me want to buy a Snuggie more than ever. Seriously, it is so fucking cold here. Maybe it's mock-worthy in California or subtropical hell pits like Florida, but it's a fine idea for Seattle.

The slanket is pricier, but sooooo much nicer. And more colors!

OK -- @5: It's called flannel. You live in Seattle now, you are required by law to wear it. I hope you catch super herpes.

@7: It's Bartell's. Only a Snuggie wearing, California transplant would call it Bartell. You SHOULD wear a Snuggie. With the arms tied in back. For your own safety.
