weezer snuggie

If you're a fan of the band Weezer and the laziness empowerment blanket the Snuggie and have been hoping for a way to combine the two, you're in luck.

Weezer fans might have been curious to know why the band was wearing the popular blanket during last Friday's Late Show with David Letterman performance. The band has not only released a new line of the sleeved blanket, but they also have their own legitimate infomercial that tells you how you can buy the band's new CD Raditude and your own "Weezer Snuggie." WARNING: After watching this video, the phrase "Weezer Snuggie" will not leave your brain for at least the next three hours. Viewer discretion is advised.

Just a few years ago the phrase "Weezer Snuggie" would have made no sense at all. Heck, maybe it still doesn't make any sense if you say it a few times. It's like I'm hitting random keys on my keyboard.

The band Weezer has actually made a deal with the people who make the Snuggie and created their own version of the robe blanket. That's Rivers Cuomo in the pic. He looks like a pregnant Bono.

Here's the original commercial for the Snuggie, and here's a review that the Consumerist did.
