“The time of reckoning is upon us: the Zombie horde is approaching. You must rise above yourself and become a leader amongst humankind. You must grab your shotgun, your chainsaw, maybe a sandwich, some brains (aka “”Zombie sandwich”"), and stand up to the shambling undead masses. Oh, and you don’t have to do this for real, you can do it on a tabletop as you play Zombie Fluxx – the game where the rules are constantly changing. In the beginning, each player is dealt 3 cards and the only rule is “”Draw 1 card; Play 1 card.”" There are 4 basic card types: Keepers (cards you place in front of you – things required to complete a Goal); Goals (specify the Keepers or conditions needed to win the game); Actions (um…actions to mess with game play); and Rules (new rules that replace, remove, or add to the rules already in play). There are also a horde of Zombie Creeper cards – these will prevent you from winning, unless you change the Rules or the Goal (or kill ‘em). Because that is the fun of Zombie Fluxx – you are constantly messing with the rules while battling your opponents and the undead. And if you’re not careful, you might change them enough to let someone else win. AND, if you are insane, you can play the dreaded “”Ungoal Card.”" If you play this card, everyone instantly loses and the Zombies win. It takes a lot of guts and a lack of brains to play the “”Ungoal Card”" – but then, isn’t that what makes a Zombie a Zombie?”

As the invaders descend from space, all that stands between them and total global domination and subjugation of the entire populace is your tiny little mobile artillery cannon. As they fall, they move through the many layers of the atmosphere. They pick up speed, a wee bit of ionizing radiation, and a fair amount of condensation, particularly through the troposphere. This condensed water collects on the surface of the invasion fleet and beads on the surfaces of their gleaming warships. Sure, you can handle the fleet itself, blasting them out of the sky one by one, but what if they land? What will happen to your fine mahogany tabletop? All that condensation will leave ugly rings on even the finest wooden furniture! Damn you, Invaders! *shakes fist* DAMN YOOOOOU! Fear not, true believers – with a simple barrier made of shellacked wood, you can interrupt the condensation before it drips on your tabletop, forever marring the surface. And, just to thumb your noses at them, those barriers are made to look like those blocky bastards from outer space themselves! A set of 6 handmade wooden coasters, built with tiny wooden blocks of different colors and textures, are all that stands between your expensive furniture and an equally expensive restain. So make the right choice – repel the invaders from space, and say NO to their ugly condensation rings!

“Binary started out as a way for geeks to master the world of computing, but here at ThinkGeek we understand that binary is mostly just another way for us to help you confuse your friends and co-workers. Enter the Jumbo LED Binary Clock. Simply slap this stylistic one foot square clock on the wall or on your favorite flat surface, select BCD or pure binary mode, set the time, and voila! You’ve just created an Instant Confusion Device (ICD) that actually tells the time. Congratulations! For best results do net setup your ICD in your local IT Lab as the chances of confusion will decrease to the point of non-compliance. Now simply wait for the next peon to walk across it’s path and stare in dis-belief as the thick sludge of neurons between his ears fails to grasp any approximation of the truth before his eyes. Then just laugh to yourself and go back to playing Portal. But ThinkGeek, I’m Basically A n00b, How Do I Read It? – Glad you asked. All geeks were n00bs at one point (except maybe Linus, and that guy in the wheelchair). So we’ve created a simple, idiot proof visual guide to reading the clock in BCD mode. Available here. Easy. Pure binary mode is just as easy, but instead of visually we’ll describe how you read it so you can sharpen your basic written comprehension skills. The horizontal bottom row represents the seconds, the 2nd row from the bottom the minutes, and the third from the bottom the hour. Then the six vertical columns are each assigned a value, from left to right, they are: 32, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1. Just sum up the values across the horizontal columns for hours, minutes and seconds – and voila! Instant mad time genius. Of course detailed reading instructions are included with each clock for those of you with ADD. Features/Specs: BCD or “True” binary display options, selectable by switch 12 hour and 24 hour display, selectable by switch 3 brightness levels Wall mountable, or can be used tabletop with included brackets Battery backup of time during power loss (uses 3 ‘AA’ batteries, not included) Dimensions: 12.3″” by 12.3″” and is a slim 1.25″” deep. Available in your choice of crystalline blue or bright red LEDs”

“Miracle Fruits (sometimes called Miracle Berries) have been a secret wonder of the world for centuries. Though they were first documented by a French dude in 1725, they’d been consumed for many generations prior. They were eaten before meals to make the meals taste better. “”How?”" you ask. By making sour and bitter foods taste sweet. “”But how?”" you scream. The truth is, science doesn’t completely know (it has something to do with the protein miraculin that bonds to your taste buds, but the exact cause is still a mystery). But the berries work, and it’s a miracle. Now you know we wouldn’t sell you something without trying it first. So, we did. Limes suddenly tasted like the sweetest, most perfect limeade ever. Oranges (already quite sweet) tasted like they were imported from an Alien world or plucked straight from the Garden of Eden (truly, words can’t describe the life-altering sensations caused by these little tablets). Snozzberries in our wallpaper tasted like . . . ok, they were just boogers (tip to self: don’t lick wallpaper). But seriously, these little things are incredible. You can join the new craze of hosting “”flavor tripping”" parties. Everyone gets a dose of Miracle Berry, and then you taste things. You can even help your diet with Miracle Berry Fruit Tablets – healthy yucky foods will taste like candy and you won’t crave sugar-laden (i.e. fattening) candy anymore. See…it’s a miracle! Please note: Highly acidic foods (like pure lemon juice) will taste wonderful, but will still harm your mouth if you drink too much. Also, if you are outside of the US, please check your local laws before ordering (just to make sure your order doesn’t get stopped at customs).”

“If you’re a regular tabletop gamer, and if you’re here you probably are – you’ve probably had to explain what those “”weird dice”" were to your mundane family and friends. “”This one is for rolling initiative, and this one is -”" “”What’s initiative?”" You roll your eyes and soldier on. After all, someone had to explain it to you, once, right? Over the years, you’ve amassed a great collection of dice – some were really cool looking, some were made of some exotic material, or were in some strange arrangement, but they were always the same set: 4 sided, 6 sided, 8, 10 (sometimes two of ‘em), 12, and 20. Is your set complete? You thought so – until now. Now you can lord it over your other gamer buddies with even more exotic random-number generators! Behold! The Weird Gaming Dice Set! 3 siders! 5 siders! 7s, 14s, 30s and 100 sided dice! Amazing! Of course, your next question is obvious: “”What the hell are these weird dice for?”" Sound like a familiar question? It should.”
