The Snuggie For MEN

I know.   I’m going to catch a lot of crap about this.  A lot of you LOVE your Snuggie.

But may I ask…when was the last time your HUSBAND said - “Man, I need me a blanket with sleeves…and make it a camouflage one so I don’t lose any cool points for wearing it when my buddies are over to watch football.”

Cricket.  Cricket….Chirp.  Chirp.

That’s what I thought.  Not a single respondent.

But let’s say on the off chance that those of you out there with men that DO love their Snuggie to watch football in somehow have laryngitis, and I simply couldn’t hear you when you spoke up earlier…Can I ask you – has your Manly Man of Men ever taken his precious snuggie fishing?

Because if he hasn’t, I’m really not sure why.  This seems super practical to me…right?

Sorry about the grainy picture of the man fishing in his Snuggie.  Apparently it isn’t as popular as one might think because there are simply no pictures outside of the one on the box of a man actually doing this.  Well either that or the man is simply too embarrassed to post them. 

Umbrella Rain Tube

I have to admit, I’ve looked all over to find this item for sale in the US, and sadly, it just doesn’t seem so.

Nope, this baby is being hoarded by the Japanese. 

Darn those selfish Japanese inventors, merchandisers and retailers…

Hmmm… on second thought – they can have it.

Inflate-a-potty

Who is on Latrine duty?

Aw man?  Really????

Inflate-a-potty.

Ok, I see the idea here, really I do.  I’m a camper.  I like the outdoors.  I’ve even dug my fair share of latrines. Something soft to sit my tush on would be fabulous when out in the wilderness – but I’m not sure I’d go the route of

“inflate like you would a beach ball”

That involves my mouth doesn’t it?

Thinking…thinking…

Yes, yes it does.

I suppose I could technically pass that task off to one of the kids while setting up camp.

*shudder*

I know how kids are.  No thanks.

The Better Marriage Blanket

Because I couldn’t possibly make this up – yet again, here is the word for word information from the website:

Almost everyone knows the silent but deadly effects of flatulence on relationships.  For couples, nothing can spoil the romantic aura more quickly!  It can be funny but it can also be a nuisance.

Yes…why yes I do understand that.

The Better Marriage Blanket is made using the same kind of activated carbon fabric found in Military Chemical Suits.  Chemicals and gasses are absorbed in millions of microscopic pores in each tiny particle of activated carbon.

*snicker*

…

First person to shout “DUTCH OVEN” wins a prize…

For those that don’t know what that is, well then, consider yourself lucky.  Very, very lucky.

Thank you Leanne W for this one, no – I hadn’t seen it, and it’s helped me through the better part of the day while I try to recover from this illness.  Laughter really is the best medicine.

Sink Positive

These days there is a lot of talk about water conservation, being green, and eco-friendly solutions to every day problems.

For instance…how to save on space in an already small bathroom.

How about, Sink Positive?

You see, the sink uses the toilet’s existing water plumbing for hand washing, tooth brushing, late night drinks of water….and the used water drains into the toilet’s tank for flushing of the…well…other stuff.

Here’s the deal.  I don’t care how clean the water supply is coming into the toilet.  I am NOT using it to brush my teeth, or wash my hands.  But that’s just my opinion.

I’ll do my part to conserve water in our household.  Promise.  I’ll stop letting the water run while I brush my teeth…in the conventional sink.
