Blanketing Australia with Sleeves
The Snuggie continues it’s march towards world domination, taking Australia by storm. (Snuggie fans in Australia can order their Snuggie or Snuggie for kids here – SnuggieAustralia.com) So here’s how the Snuggie phenomenon starts – someone gets a Snuggie. Before you know it, someone wants to share the warmth, and often (for whatever reason) a bottle of alcohol makes an appearance. Here are some recent Snuggie Sightings sent my way from some good Facebook friends from Australia.
Josh shares his Snuggie with Ryan, but keeps the Vodka to himself.
The magic with the Snuggie is that it is one size fits all, and when we say all, we mean, ALL. There’s always room for one more friend to join the Fleecy Frivolity. Always.
Tara joins the Snuggie party in the parking lot.
If you can’t wear the Snuggie, you at least want to get close to it – perhaps feel the fleece, lick some chocolate off your fingers like Barney here…you know, typical Snuggie fun.
Josh, Ryan, Tara and Barney want you to know that the Snuggie is universal...like chocolate. Num num...Blanketing the world...with sleeves.
Snuggie Car Repair
Josh wrote in to share his Snuggie Car Repair:
The Snuggie's Sheer Awesomeness Makes Repairing Vehicles a Snap. Stay warm and cozy while turning wrenches in the Snuggie.
‘So the other day after a long day at the warehouse, I walked out to my truck and it wouldn’t start! Myself and Hunter went to work to find the problem. Since its a chilly 77 degrees in Austin Tx we donned our Snuggies to stay warm. You can’t work on cars in a blanket…your hands are trapped inside! Here are a few pics of the troubleshooting. Of course we fixed it…We’re the ProductionGuys!’
Of course you fixed it. You’re wearing Snuggies. And Flip Flops with Socks go well with Snuggies, always.
This looks like a crime scene photo, or a Snuggie version of the game of 'Clue'
OSHA Still Hearts the Snuggie in the Workplace
Josh and his warehouse friends are back. They liked being named the #1 Snuggie Sighting for Month 1 so much, they decided to throw their Yellow hard hats into the ring and give it another go.
For background’s sake, it may help if you checked out last month’s post aptly entitled ‘OSHA Hearts the Snuggie in the Workplace‘.
It is important to stay warm and cozy while using a torch.
KIDS: Do not try this at home.
You cannot operate a forklift in a blanket...and as a side note, zooming in on this image revealed 'Viva La Chair' written in the top right corner of the marker board. I have no idea what that was about. The warehouse guys also tried to slip in a phallic symbol on the left side of the board, which I have cropped out. I have elected to leave the ForkLiftDeals.com web address unobscured on the side of the forklift, because that sounds like an exciting website.
Here’s a zoom in on the marker board, with the Viva La Chair reference…
Zoomed in on the Marker Board - Viva La Chair - Uhh...Ok...
So, being the ever curious chap that I am, I did a search on “Viva La Chair” and found an obscure Gossip Girl reference. These Warehouse Snuggie Guys don’t strike me as Gossip Girl fans, but you never know.
Let’s see. Where was I?
When operating a drill press, safety always comes first. Be sure to wear your safety goggles and hard hat. It is also a good idea if you keep your blanketed sleeves outside of the rotating reach of said drill. Groovy Rod Carew batting gloves are optional.
Drilling in a Snuggie never gets boring (get it? Boring. He’s drilling holes – as in ‘boring’ holes…oh, never mind. I guess I’ll sit alone in the Pun Zone.)
Performing High Voltage Repairs in a Snuggie. The Forklift comes in handy for those hard to reach spots.
So there you have it, my friends. The Snuggie Warehouse guys are back in action, staying warm and cozy, and keeping safety in mind at all times. I will leave you with one final shot from the warehouse. At first it appears to be your run-of-the-mill guy in a Snuggie pushing a dolly pic. But look closely.
What does the side of that box say?
When Josh emailed these, he ‘apologized’ for their large size, but he knew how I liked to zoom in on things and point stuff out in the background. Hmm…could that have been a little nudge and a hint to me? Well, I fell for it. Let’s take a look-see on that box…well, would you look at that?!
YouTube.com/productionguys - Sneaky link bait. Oh, ok.
You know what to do …
…or maybe you don’t. Click here to check out these guys’ ill-advised and crazy antics on YouTube. And don’t try any of it at home, in a Snuggie or not. These guys are obviously trained professionals. You have been warned (please don’t sue me).
