I have this belt. It has two metal prongs, which sure looks cool, but it makes it a little difficult to put on and take off. I recently got an even cooler belt with three prongs. And let me tell you...this makes it really difficult to put on or take off quickly. In light of this recent trend of belt makers upping the user unfriendliness of their products...I have made a list of the reasons it is good to have a belt which can be undone quickly.

Reasons Belts Should be Stripper-Quick

1- You're snowboarding on a triple black diamond. Things are going well until you fall, your quick snap boot clips undo and you are sliding quicker and quicker past that sign that flashed past you which said, "Warning: cliff ahead." You deftly unbuckle your belt with one hand and slide it out of the loops. You swing it over a lone tree branch as you plummet over the edge and grab a hold with the other hand. Now you can buckle the belt to a strap on your snowboarding jacket and await the rescue copter.

2- You're in a dark parking lot by yourself and you've just unlocked your brand new Shelby Cobra. No, not a replica...a real one. Out of the darkness three figures appear, and they don't look friendly. As they approach, you yank your belt out of the loops like greased lightning. Before these three thugs have a clue you crack the belt in the air Indiana Jones style, stopping them in their tracks. They decide that getting a Shelby Cobra is not worth aggravating a psycho belt-wielding man. Sure they're wrong...but at least they're gone...and you still have your car.

3- Three words: "Where's the bathroom!?!"

4- You're at the local strip club when the M.C. announces that it's time for the annual "Don't You Wanna be a Stripper Too?" contest? It's your turn and you're getting down to the big bass sound as you fling your shirt into the crowd. So far so good. But then you get to your pants and...what's this...four metal prongs of death await you and your not so deft fingers. You fumble, miss a beat, and it's all over. That guy with the beer belly and comb over was just handed the coveted golden stripper's pole trophy...all because his belt had a measly one prong.

5- Five words: "Your pants catch on fire."

6- If you were narcoleptic and you could move really really fast, then as you were falling to the ground you could swipe out your belt lighting fast and take off your pants and shirt and then if someone saw you laying on the ground sleeping they wouldn't say to their friend, "Hey...why's that guy sleeping with all his clothes on?"

7- Your friend is a heroin addict and is going through major withdrawal.

8- Someone is walking through a big crowd and he or she yells, "HEY! Whoever hands me their belt first gets a million dollars!" You know this one happens all the time. So gosh...this one alone is more than enough reason to get a simple belt.
