Hey man, snuggies are awesome, but you can't really wear it in public (unless you've completely given up on life). What is a man to do?

Well good sir, have I got a product for you. Its the Snazzy Napper!

So its basically a burqa for napping, with z's on it. Goddamn thats ridiculous. What will they think of next!


A lot of times, i have trouble sleeping and just turn the channel to infomercials, and i find myself always tempted. yet the only product i've actually bought is a blue snuggie. Have you bought any products you've seen on the infomercials? Do you have sexual dreams about billy mays? Well with 3 easy payments of $29.99, all your life's problems can be solved!

    Was watching Pitchmen a bit last night. It's not a bad show and I wish I would have gotten a chance to see it before Mays died.

    I've never bought anything off an infomercial

    When my grandma died though I got about 650 little trinkets she got off of QVC. It wasn't even 1/4 her collection

    I think my favorite infomercials are ones about average crap.

    Watching people try to fill up a half hour listing the features of a ladder is just amusing.

    "You can climb on it!"

    "You can climb on it outside!"

    My mother in law got everyone snuggies as a joke for christmas, the main problem with them is that they're basically made of felt and it turns you into a giant walking static shock

    I've heard that Mighty Putty smells absolutely horrible, and, while it works, it's not any better than certain types of epoxy you can get at the hardware store.

    I love this. Those scenes are always my favorite parts of infomercials.


    My friend once bought a juicer from an infomercial. It would cause the lights in the room to dim when he used it.

    The white people aren't Japanese Hunter.

    The end of story isn't that interesting.

    I watched them, the silly Japanese girls got off at my stop.

    I eyed off the two creepy dudes, they didn't get off.
