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.

Some things to consider from this “as seen on TV” commercial spectacle:

- The rhyming in the beginning that quickly gets dropped.
- The fact that your hands get caught in a blanket.
- 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.
