Just a few days into a new year, and I fear we're already doomed. Culturally, that is. I saw an ad for this gem the other day: "Forever Lazy, the wearable blanket". Really? The ad boasts that you can now relax without the inconvenience and general aggravations that accompany the use of a traditional blanket. You know, having to cover yourself up, and of course the biggest disadvantage of all--that a regular blanket does not come with footie attachments. Or maybe the biggest problem for you is having to remove the blanket (and yourself from the couch) when "nature calls". Not an issue with "Forever Lazy"! This one-piece delight comes with zippered openings in the front and back so you don't have to bother removing the entire "garment" before using the potty. You probably don't need to bother with having relationships with other people, either, since buying one of these indicates that you have reached the end of your journey on the path to "giving up". Or have you? The makers of "Forever Lazy" insist you'll want to wear your big-kid onesie everywhere--tailgating before the big game, partying with your friends, or just relaxing with your pets (who are the only beings that won't crack up when you put on your wearable blanket).
We wonder why so many people hate us. Could this be it? That they view Americans as lazy, unimaginative, and lacking the type of moral fiber that prevents one from taking such a product seriously? And I thought the "Snuggie" was a disgrace...
P.S. If you still want one of these after my disparaging post, here's the website to get your very own "Forever Lazy": https://www.orderforeverlazy.com/

Oh, but as someone who can't afford to put oil in the furnace this does look comfy! And I like my snuggie. I didn't buy it for myself, but I wear it when I read, and can hold the book without my arms getting cold from being out from under the blanket.
The name, though, is a problem. Nobody wants to be lazy. And don't worry, I do have enough dignity left that I WOULD NEVER WEAR THIS OUT OF THE HOUSE. It's pajamas, people!
Yes, why would you ever want to say I AM LAZY! I really had to laugh at the couple standing on their deck enjoying a drink wearing these...
On the other hand, it is a lot cheaper than Pajamagram's hoodie-footies - but at least that company admits they're pajamas!
