Zia Hates - Puffa Jackets

I can't actually believe that I haven't mentioned these before. I've checked twice through my posts just to make sure, but it's notably absent. Perhaps the sheer level of rage that I have for the ugliness of the Puffa Jacket could not be contained - and I feared for the destruction of my laptop. After all, just looking at them is enough to make me 'Hulk Up' turn green and start smashing the fuck out of everything in sight. Well, maybe not that extreme. But I would like to set fire to them, a little bit.
The problems are so glaringly obvious that I can't see why anyone would think to wear them in the first place. The main excuse that is trawled out is that they are so WARM. So is my Bunny Onesy, but I don't wear it around town, and frankly, I'd feel less of cock wearing that than I would a puffa jacket. And believe me, I look a cock in my Bunny Onesy. That's why it's an INSIDE GARMENT.


Here are my top 5 reasons for hating the Puffa; 

1. They are Unflattering. (Capital U) Why would anyone want to make themselves look like the Michelin Man? He is a tire. A big fat car tire.
2. It's not 1997 anymore. You are not in East 17. Anything that Brian Harvey has ever worn should automatically be written off as a potential purchase. 

3. The shiny ones resemble bin bags, full of air and sadness. 
4. Even the spelling 'Puffa' looks like text-speak. They are therefore assisting with the destruction of the English language. 
5. You look worse than the Stay-Puff Marshmallow Man. At least he looks good to eat. 

There are a plethora of other options. Tailored wool coats and jackets. Faux fur. Layers of fine Merino and cable knit jumpers. Military jackets, blazers and scarfs - I could go on forever. Anything but the Puffa, and bloody polar fleece, but that's another rant all together...
