Remember when Weezer used to be awesome? Remember The Blue Album, and how it may still be the best pop record of the past 20 years and how they’ve never been able to come anywhere near topping it? Well, instead of trying to do so, apparently the band has decided to do this.
I’ve always had a bit of a soft spot for Rivers Cuomo and his ironic uncoolness, but this; this is a bit much.
I recently attended a festival celebration known as The Covered Bridge Festival. Even if you’ve never been to this celebration in particular, you know how these festivals work. Vendors set up shop and deal not only honest home made crafts, but they also peddle various pirated, stolen, or bootlegged goods to unsuspecting attendees.
I have a feeling that’s what is going on here. A shady-looking gentlemen is sitting behind a stand selling the Snuggie 2. I didn’t get any closer than I needed for a decent picture, as I was afraid the guy would talk me into buying six or seven of these, but I’m pretty sure it is the exact same thing as everyone’s favorite backwards bath robe, maybe with a few alterations made. Sorry about the quality, I didn’t take my camera so I had to use my BlackBerry.
The highly anticipated sequel to the blanket that makes you look retarded!
