Maybe they need to start making a custom Snuggie with a bulletproof lining. Just sayin'

Snuggies are forever
I know we've already talked about the Snuggie pretty extensively on this site, but I know you've still been dealing with at least one burning question, and jennipedia is here to provide answers. So, is the Snuggie worthy of one of the world's greatest spies? See for yourself...

I can't talk right now, I'm in a war
We've all heard of call of duty, right? Every girl I know who has guy friends, a boyfriend, or a husband has at least one ridiculous story about how far guys will go to play this game. One night, a friend and I came back to her place from an evening out to discover her husband and two friends playing the game projected onto a sheet draped over the entrance to their living room. We had to wait until a break in the action to even move the sheet!
Well, I recently discovered that there might be hope for the ladies when it comes to understanding this obsession with video games. Apparently, the people who created call of duty and the twilight series have decided to collaborate to create a brand new type of video game. Called "Twilight: Modern Warfare 2," this version will appeal to both boys, men, teenaged girls, and middle-aged women, as it features all the action of the original call of duty, as well as shirtless shots of "Moonbeam" (you guessed it, Jacob the werewolf) and "Sparkles" staring moodily off into nowhere (Edward Cullen, whose chest "sparkles in the sun").
While I'm not a huge Twilight fan (and have actually played the actual call of duty), I think the creative forces behind this combo are on to something. Let's just imagine the possibilities. For example, with Madden or any of the other sports games, they could add an option where you could select certain players to play shirtless or have a "level" where you can go into the locker room and "interview" players for points. Or maybe instead of the chubby Mario and Luigi on Super Mario Brothers, you got the JoBros (again, appealing to the Twilight set), Brad and George (Pitt and Clooney, respectively), or Jude Law and Colin First (if, like me, you have a thing for accents). I think I might be onto something...what do you think???

When a regular snuggie is just not good enough
After reading my last post, I bet you're wondering how you can stay warm and look stylish (I'll admit, that's pretty hard in long underwear...). Well, my friends, JCPenney has come up with the solution:
It's called the "snuggLe suit," but we all know what it really is: a SNUGGIE suit! It comes in four colors and is on sale at jcpenney.com for $24.99. The original price is $60, and the real question here is, who would seriously pay $60 for what amounts to a velour pantsuit with a waist tie??? I suppose it is better than the real snuggie, whose biggest flaw is contained in its own description--it's a blanket with sleeves, which means it's open in the back. With the snuggLe suit, there's no risk of accidental ass exposure, that's for sure. I guess the next logical question is when they'll start selling a snuggLe suit for dogs!

Are there waffles in your long underwear?
Since this is my first post, a brief note about what I'll be doing--I'll be answering questions, providing commentary (about my life and the world around me), and--hopefully--entertaining you!
With that in mind, I've gotten my first question, provided on a freaking freezing cold trip into Meijer for car floormats. Because you can't just buy one thing at Meijer, my shopping partner picked up some long underwear (on sale of $6.99!!!) and asked me why long underwear has waffle weave. And, my lovely reader(s), this is how is works: you ask, and I find the answer...
Long johns, also known as long underwear, are two-piece garments worn underneath clothing to provide an extra layer of warmth. The tiny pockets in the waffle design keep your body warm by trapping body heat and holding it against your skin. The waffle weave design actually works so well in keeping you warm that it hasn't really changed that much over the years.
Inspired to go out and buy some long underwear after reading this post? Try here.
I feel warmer already! Well, that's all I have on this cold January night, but I'm here to answer your questions. Remember, nothing's off limits!
PS-In my research for this post, I found a website dedicated to men's panties." It should not be that easy to get "men's panties" when you type in "waffle weave long underwear" as your search terms. I mean, I'm a smartypants, but there are some things even I don't want to know about. Do you hear me, Google?
