Yoga Mat Aggression

Let the Mat Wars (and jokes) begin. With six inches wider than a normal mat, I wonder how many people are going to be unyogic (pissed off) as their precious space between yoga mats is being gobbled up by the John Friend Phat Mat. In some studios in the Federal City, there are taped spaces where you are suppose to put your mat so they can cram, ahumm, I mean maximize the available space for as many students as possible. I don’t see this as an issue in your own space or sparsely populated studios but I can already see the stink eyes starting as a someone rolls this out. So why stop at 30 inches?



Some great comments are already rolling in (come on, some of this shit is pretty funny):

"...are you going to be the one who shows up for a packed class with a gigantic mat, bigger than everyone else's? Who wants that reputation?"

"I'm going to take all 5 of my Manduaka Mats and roll them over your mats. And I'm going to swipe your water bottle."

"Size matters!"

But heck with that mat, I'm bringing one of these babies with me to my next class...



360° Round Yoga Mat
1/4 inch thick for that extra cushion
6 feet diameter

Better yet, look for the YogaDawg Double-Wide Yoga Mat tm (at twice the size of the normal mat) ...

Hey, we can start a m2 charge depending on the size of your mat. Maybe you don't pay for classes you just start renting space on the floor lol..

Twice the size means my chances to climb the Kundalini to enlightenment increase exponentially! Besides, it's also a reminder that John F. really cares about me, my heart, my emotional stability, and how I look :) Please don't expose your negative karma by stepping on my space maker and infusing my energy fields with such vitriol and jealousy. always in seva to the dawg, ao!

I was expecting you to spoof the "extra heart" claim. As in: 100 extra hearts were crushed in order to be turned into this here mat".

Best line, by far: "Everything about this mat will lead to the very essence of your heart." Pardon me, I just threw up a little bit when I heard that.

it feels in sync with the supersize mentality that led to Americans getting bigger, thus needing wider mats

note to self: add a pair of scissors to yoga bag.
