| Possibly the world's stupidest invention |

The Slanket might be friend to the sick, cold, or hungover. But it's certainly not friends with the logical, popular, or horny.
This 'revolutionary' product, which will set you back about $45 (USD), is a gigantic polyester (eww) super-fleecy blanket. With sleeves. And, if I'm not mistaken, a hood. You might think it seems like an OK, even clever, idea. But you'd be wrong.
The Slanket has many a flaw:
The massive, wizard-cloak-style sleeves will get in the way and knock cups of tea, remote controls and of all your snacks around. Eventually, the cuffs will be smeared with gunk and you could easily lose the cat somewhere in the ridiculously large sleeves.
The Slanket is made for one. One only. So there can be no canoodle-session with your beloved.
The Slanket is nerdy as fuck. It's maybe the middle-aged, lonely, World of Warcraft champion's best friend. Apart from maybe KillaGreg101 and the webmaster.
The Slanket is available in apricot.
Please feel free to add to the (probably many more) reasons the Slanket is the lamest invention ever.
