The Snuggie has ruined America

For those that are not aware, the Snuggie and I have a special relationship; sort of in the way that arsonists have a special relationship with the things they light on fire.

Until several years ago, I was a mild-tempered, carefree young man that viewed the world through a lens of happiness, rainbows, and butterflies. I saw unique beauty in everything around me, no matter how small and no matter how simple.

At this point, you're probably tempted to ask for a list of all the hallucinogenic drugs I must have been taking at the time. However, it's important to stress that I wasn't "trippin' balls," as the kids these days say. I was merely a naïve person that had not yet had my innocence turned around backwards, marketed as the new trendy solution to warmth and coziness, and whored out to everyone with a drafty living room and a lack of critical thinking skills.

Ever since I began this personal feud with the Snuggie, I have grown cynical, sarcastic, and at times, downright rambunctious towards the things in this world that I find to be absolutely ridiculous. I can't hold down a job, my personal relationships have suffered, I have nightmares, and I still haven't been able to prove it, but I'm fairly sure there's a small badger living in my backyard that mutters mild obscenities at me when I take out the trash.

All those things notwithstanding, the Snuggie's most inexcusable influence lies in what it has done to the fashion industry. For those who haven't fallen into the trap of thinking that skinny jeans are more of a replacement for dieting than they are a piece of clothing that leaves very little to the imagination, the Snuggie's influence has opened the door for many new methods for clothing oneself. Since the "invention" of the Snuggie, fashion has gotten lazier, frumpier, and fleecier, but to my knowledge, no more flame-retardant. For those of you who have managed to remain oblivious to these concerning trends, I would like to highlight some of the recently introduced pieces of clothing that make me want to set their wearers aflame.
