Etsy, you are a gold mine of horrible, horrible creations.
And one of them happens to be the “Smitten Snuggie.” Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy holding hands, and if I knew someone I generally liked in a way that made me want to hold their hand, I certainly would. But I don’t (cue self pity). And even if I did, I wouldn’t, under any circumstances, wear this.
Therefore, I take offense to the fact that some couple, somewhere, would voluntarily parade around me and the rest of the general public displaying double the affection. Like, I know you’re holding each other’s hands under there. I get it. It’s no mystery. You don’t have to signify the fact that you’re holding hands because you have romantic feelings towards each other by outfitting your love-fused paws with a fleece heart. That’s going way, way overboard.
And, you know, conversely, maybe you’re not holding hands under there. Maybe you’ve been kidnapped by some sort of terrorist with a sense of humor (or just a person that really, really hates you) who has connected you to a bomb that lies inside said Smitten Snuggie — a bomb that will detonate if you so much as remove your hand. I would rather that be the case than someone actually paying money for this and personally choosing to wear it. No really. That’s not an exaggeration. (via Refinery29)
Would any of you Lovelies wear this with your man?

what kind of crap?! not a fan…
guest
okay I know this is not the most flattering mitten , but geez. harsh & over reacting much?
guest
I kind of like the idea of it, but it is sooo dumb looking.
guest
nope, he doesn’t like stuff that is cheesy, and this is freaken oozing cheesiness
guest
Hehe, no, thank you. A little too cheesy for me (and my husband.)
guest
I think it’s over the top and corny. I LOVE IT! lol!
I don’t care what people would think. I’d wear it with my significant other for the sheer novelty of it.
guest
this is a great idea
!!
guest
HAHHA
guest
It’s a very cute idea
guest
I hold my boyfriends hands frequently because my hands are always freakishly cold (bad circulation maybe), not because I’m parading around my love.
That mitten though is fantastically ostentatious…looks warm too.
guest
I love it. You sound a little bitter. Umadbro?
guest
Wow, I love sweaty hands.
guest
Oh my god this is awful hahaha
Though if they made something similar that wasn’t heart shaped I’d totally buy it, since my only hand warming devices are fingerless gloves with a mitten flip over, and my boyfriend is always reaching for my hand in the cold. I think they are on to something..
guest
i’d wear it if it wasn’t THAT obvious of a heart shaped. a bit obvious? and not even cute. it’s almost cheesy and corny as hell, i’d be embarassed wearing that! no way would i make the bf wear it lol.
guest
LMAO so embarassing.
