Too Incompetent to Operate a Blanket: Difference between revisions

Might be [[Truth in Television]] for some products and some users. In fact, many of these products were invented specifically for the elderly and disabled, people, who legitimately ''could'' have problems with some of these tasks. The Snuggie, for instance, was originally meant for wheelchair users who often have problems regulating their body temperature - the design allows for the upper body and legs to both be fully covered without a corner getting caught in a wheel and without fabric bunching up in the back (which can cause bedsores). The incompetence factor usually arises when the item is marketed to a general audience and it becomes necessary to convince ''them'' that they can't live without these products. (This is frequently necessary in order to simply be able to provide the product to its actual target audience, who usually number too few to make it profitable to manufacture otherwise.)

** The funny part of ''[[iCarly]]'' making fun of SnuggiesSnuggie blankets is that Nickelodeon advertised the Snuggie.

** Even funnier, there's something like "The Sack" that actually exists,. albeit with a different purpose.A There's"sleeping somethingbag similarliner" that'sis marketed for people who travel frequently and would prefer a protective barrier between them and filthy hotel sheets.
