Well, apparently my oven is running hot these days, because by the time I got there, it was evident that I had missed the 'jiggly only in the center' stage by a long shot.

Snuggie derangement syndrome

noun phrase. A blanket-with-sleeves-related mental disorder that can be alleviated with a straitjacket.

Real citation: "After suffering through that annoying Snuggie commercial today for the umpteenth time, I decided to look online to see if anyone had written about it, and sure enough, I came across this column and this one. The monk-like man eating popcorn reminds me of 'Mr. Atoz' from 'Star Trek' (see above photo); and I always wonder what kind of people would possibly go out in public wearing Snuggies! Anyone else suffering from Snuggie Derangement Syndrome?"
