If you want to keep warm this winter while sporting that timeless Franciscan monk look, then the Snuggie, aka “the blanket with sleeves” is right up your alley.

- This is available in three colors, but everyone in the ad is wearing the burgundy.
- Which of course causes everyone to look like they’re in a cult.
- Especially when outside roasting marshmallows (and preparing to sacrifice a virgin?)
- Even more especially when enjoying the outdoor sporting event.
And to think I’ve lived my entire life to this point with sleeveless blankets.
