@Barney

@Barney Kids love log!

/giphy ostentatious-equivocal-oak

Don’t know why, you just channeled my inner Ren and Stimpy.

@Barney , what your mommie said

@AmazingChicken Thank you for starting up the wayback machine.

What rolls down stairs
alone or in pairs,
rolls over your neighbor’s dog?
What’s great for a snack,
And fits on your back?
It’s log, log, log

It’s log, log,
It’s big, it’s heavy, it’s wood.
It’s log, log, it’s better than bad, it’s good."

Everyone wants a log
You’re gonna love a log
Come on and get your log
Everyone needs a log
Wants a log
Love it log.

@f00l Hahahahahaha! Why?

@f00l Shouldn’t all orange be burnt…?

Purple up here, too.

@awk or 1.33 by 1.67 yards…

@awk The Blanket Dome. Where 1 yard touchdowns happen every game.

@norman8 0 calories per serving! (1700 servings per 12oz container). Not even joking.

@mr_crash_davis I always think it’s weird when people talk about typos that aren’t there at all and never were

@mr_crash_davis Seriously, though… they are worthless for chocking. Hazardous? Maybe, but that depends on what you were chocking.

@djslack I live in an apartment. Garbage day is every day that I throw my garbage into the hallway (down the hall, of course).

@medz
/giphy a real two pack

@medz how is a “real two pack” not forcing you to buy quantity of 2?

@djslack Tupac making the meh face wins for the best /giphy ever posted. We might as well turn that feature off now.

@shawn because it’s qty x 1 two pack. This model would be like buying a dozen eggs, but you have to put each egg in your shopping cart individually. So you’re not buying qty x 1 12-pack, but rather qty x 12 1 egg.

@shawn Url to that giphy (eg one of Tupac making the meh face)?

@medz except now you can finally build your own dozen and buy 6 large eggs and 6 extra large eggs. Can’t believe supermarkets don’t allow that. They probably will once they see our innovation here. You’re welcome.

@shawn I guess… Liquor stores have been doing the “build your own 6-pack” for awhile now. Even though you have to select 6 individual beers, they sell it as a 6-pack and it shows up as 1 item on the receipt. If I were to buy these blankies, I think it would still show as 2 separate items on my meh invoice rather than one 2-pack.

@medz I was in Salt Lake City for work and I couldn’t believe that you have to buy a 6 pack 1 beer at a time, like 6 items on the receipt.

@oldmantick They have pre-made 6-packs here, but the build-your-own option allows you to pick from a variety of imported or otherwise “fancy” beers to create your own sampler.

@melonscoop contains 0% asbestos

@djslack You’re right, I will be dangerously open to fire attacks. I’ll look in to fortifying with my own asbestos.

@melonscoop do asbestos you can

@Odysseus1001 In theory, it would be comparable to sweatshirt material… but it’s here on Meh so it’s probably closer to steel wool.

@Odysseus1001 You just made me realize that. Wondering what the “comparison cost” is being compared to. Maybe ones with asbestos?

@WTFsunshine Actually, I can tell you the comparison cost. It’s being compared with what meetyourrival.com sells these blankets for if you have them personalized. So that’s a very artificial (almost Amazon-level) list price.

@Jamileigh17 I agree with your statement. Some people don’t realize that the legs may not work but they still feel the cold. Ohio’s two seasons are very, very, very cold and too hot with humidity.

@Jamileigh17 or sized for children. If it can’t cover an adult’s toes and shoulders at the same time it is not a real blanket…it is Linus’ blanket…stadium or no stadium.

@WTFsunshine They actually feel it more severely because of the attendant circulatory issues, which go along with immobility.

@sparkyfarad Maybe Lap Robe would have been a better name for them.

lap robe
ˈlap ˌrōb/
nounNORTH AMERICAN
a thick blanket or pelt used for warming the lap and legs while traveling or sitting outdoors.

@PhysAssist I’m unfortunately very familiar with that. I (and three others who are on this site that I know of) are confined to a wheelchair. For some reason, why - I don’t know, I still use the term walk instead of roll. I did it in a forum not to long ago when I realized I typed “walk out to my backyard”. I could have gone back to edit and replace walk with roll but I left it because I can still feel certain things with my legs I just can’t use them.

@WTFsunshine
Hi Sunshine,
People don’t necessarily think about those little differences though- unless they’re made to by circumstances like yours.
No matter, as far as I can see the difference [except practically to you] is meaningless. You could just as well have said “I went out into the backyard…”, and it would be equivalent, but old habits, especially of speech die hard.
Stay well, [and warm],
Thomas
PS: My understanding of the issue came through exposure to patients w/ similar issues.

@PhysAssist Thank you and keep doing what you do. You are rare in your compassion to us “rollers”.

@soxnabox Luftansa has a nice “Royal Blue” with grey trim. Thai airlines has a nice “Royal Purple”…

@soxnabox I can’t remember which Airline gifted us with the Navy ones we have had forever- but our 2 puppers love them- I think because they’re really light and not too warm.

@phendrick Yeah. You set it on fire.

@phendrick Whoa, this is Merica, no metric here. You can’t just do math with units and measurements. An ounce for measuring a liquid is different from an ounce for measuring the weight of most things, which is different from the ounce used to weigh gold, and all of those are different from ounces used to measure cloth.

For measuring cloth, the ounce is a unit of weight per some specific area. Not 100 square feet, that’s the area for measuring shingles. It is also different from standard area used to measure paper, but neither of those matter because paper and shingles are measured with pounds not ounces.

@hamjudo Thanks, I guess I am out of my element with cloth. I found this. Apparently that is 10.5 oz per square yard. If correct, the whole blanket would weigh 10.5 oz x 20/9 = about 23 oz. (somewhat heavier than my sock, after it’s been washed.)

@phendrick The other measurement choice is 10.5 oz per linear yard.

@WTFsunshine Pick your left sock, now pick your right sock.

@dave That would work for me – I have two left feet.

@dave Smartass
/image how to put on socks

@WTFsunshine Perhaps @dave wears his socks this way?

@Kidsandliz Me likie (or is it Me likey?). Either way I like it and you made me laugh.

@RedOak Hmm… My first thought was a boll of cotton. (100% cotton blanket?)

@RedOak It’s a blanket wrapped around the meh face.
ಠ_ಠ

@Thumperchick if you say so, OK.

@RedOak i thought it rather looks like me when i’m drunk & using my phone on the toilet and turn the selfie mode on. (it’s boobs.)

@jerk_nugget if your bewbs are sitting that high and tight you and me gotta meet some time.

@buktseat maybe she’s leaning forward and her boobs are actually hanging low and obscuring her face.

@RiotDemon ding! i wish my boobs were high and tight (well, ok, not that high and tight) but it’s really just what happens when you have big boobs and lean over.

@jerk_nugget I don’t love being proven wrong, but i love the direction this is headed. I cant figure out what’s going on in that pic tho, tbh.

@jerk_nugget yah, boob-kissing was another possibility but I thought, this being Meh, ass kissing was more likely the “artist’s” intent.

@RedOak i’m inclined to agree with you there

@hchavers The ones we ahem, were gifted by an airline are all synthetic- which was really a terrible idea for an airline to come up with.

Travel recommendations say that you should stick to natural fabrics when traveling, so that they don’t melt and burn into your skin in case of fire [a cheerful notion, that].

@mehod Well if that happens then you will have have supply of baby blankets.

@2many2no Sorry, this deal contains 6 unique items and I’m not sure which one you want. Try ordering from the checkout page.

@2many2no Making up your own color choices?

@cinoclav Just want it to match the stadium color.

@2many2no You a Texas fan?

@Barney That degree still pays my bills, and lets me buy way too much stuff here.

@2many2no I’m glad it’s good for something.

@Barney Even after all these years…

Wait, what?

@2many2no Gotcha!

@Furbdog and a speaker dock or knife so there will be a reason to buy

@Kidsandliz We haven’t seen speaker dock Friday in waaaaaaaaaaay too long.

@amandareed yes. I love how they’ve kept them all folded-up at the stadium.
/giphy doing it wrong

@gdibig

@Sansoona my work here is done

Yes, you’ll note that each item you add to the cart is only $7 because you actually only get 1 blanket for each “two-for-tuesday: stadium blankets” item you add to the checkout page. A single blanket costs $7, so you only get 2 blankets.
Never mind the fact that “two-for-tuesday: stadium blankets” is plural in two different ways. Maybe it’s like a double negative…

@cobra54 They should be $5 with free shipping.

@medz The photos might have been confusing but the text was pretty specific. I mean if you bother to read it.

@MrFiskars The average male is about 70" tall. The average male head is about 9.5" tall. When at the stadium to watch a sporting event, you typically don’t want your face covered up by a blanket. That’s why they took off 10" to avoid obstructing your view!

@medz As a 5’10" male, this is for children. Maybe very small adults.

::wraps the 48" side around shoulders::

Oh, neat - my average male arms are each covered to the elbow.

Also, if this is an NFL stadium these are bibs.

@MrFiskars It’s a blanket not a shawl. Blankets are placed over you not wrapped around. It should be oriented in “portrait” mode to best fit your body.

@cf1 the info says they are supposed to be 100% cotton.
