Are you a Grand Titan of the KKK? No? Oh, just chilly then!


What does bat-shit-crazy "Da Vinci Code" monk Silas have in common with . . .


Scary KKKish crucifix-bearing parade marchers . . .


who look like the underground orgy-digging "Eyes Wide Shut" club . . .


who closely resemble old school Trekkies . . .


who spawned the Next Generation of desperately-in-need-of-girlfriends Jedi wannabe fanboy guys.

So what do all these people have in common?

A lot . . . with infomercial believing, thermostat-wary, TV-addicted Americans.




Can we just talk about this phenomena? First of all, Snuggies are so damn lowbrow trailerpark UGLY. Second, they are $28 including the shipping, which is a ridiculous price to pay for something this stupid. Third, and scariest of all, over 4 million of these things have been sold.

What is wrong with a bathrobe, the lazy man's classic attire of choice? Do we really need to look like we're channeling a Grand Titan of the Ku Klux Klan? People of America! Get a grip! Who would you rather resemble?
