Right. If you're checking out this shirt, you probably like corny chemistry jokes, so here's another for you: Two atoms walk into a bar. One atom stops and says to the other, "I think I just lost an electron." The second atom asks "Are you sure?" The first atom replies, "I'm positive!" *rimshot* A ring of ferrous ions (Fe+2) is printed in white on this raspberry, babydoll (fitted) shirt. Note that the color of this shirt is more pink than the unisex version.

Ethanol Molecule Flask
Ever since we realized that sugar could be fermented into ethanol, the fun began. One of our earliest organic reactions became one that fueled our parties, our perfumes, our colorings, our medicines, and even our vehicles!

Whether it's a fruity wine cooler with barely any ethanol or high-proof spirits, we bow down to the first human to figure this bit of chemistry out. You are awesome and if you weren't dead, we'd buy you a beer. Remember that your favorite booze is all about the ethanol. This stainless steel flask is adorned with an ethanol molecule to remind you of just that. Please imbibe responsibly, okay? We kinda like having you around.

DIY Chocolate Bar Kit
The human enjoyment of chocolate dates from before the time of the Olmecs, Mayans, Aztecs, Incans. More than 3000 years ago, folks in Mexico, Central, and South America discovered the joyous and healthful properties of the cacao plant. Alas, though, most of the things we know as chocolate today are processed so much with sugar and chemicals, that much of the healthy (and delicious) goodness of cacao is lost. Time to return to the past - the true roots of chocolate; time to taste chocolate as it was when Christopher Columbus (one of the first Europeans to ever sample the stuff) first had a sip of Aztec liquid chocolate. Get ready to take a journey through all-natural chemistry to a time when chocolate was chocolate. Get ready for the DIY Chocolate Bar Kit . It's pretty simple. What you'll get with each DIY Chocolate Bar Kit are pure, raw chocolate ingredients. No harsh chemicals - just cacao. And pure cacao has 3 times the levels of antioxidants as store-bought chocolate (and 2 times the levels as red wine). This is food chemistry on a delicious and mind pleasing level. And (we must say it again) healthy, as even the sweeteners provided in this kit are all natural and full of vitamins and good stuff like that. DIY Chocolate Bar Kit - magically brings back the wonder and joy of chocolate. For some simplified instructions, click here.

Radium Shirt
This shirt was a "duh" moment for us. While working on the Marie Curie heroine shirt, we were struck by her description of their work with radioactive chemicals in the dark. One of our joys was to go into our workroom at night; we then perceived on all sides the feebly luminous silhouettes of the bottles or capsules containing our products. It was really a lovely sight and one always new to us. The glowing tubes looked like faint, fairy lights. - Marie Curie Hey wait. We can make a shirt do that (without causing the wearer aplastic anemia). And so this shirt was born. The radium atom's electron shells are printed white on this black 100% cotton t-shirt. After a short charge in the light, the white ink glows in the dark.

Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock - Kids
We'll be honest here. We hadn't heard of Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock until that episode of The Big Bang Theory. You could say that prior to that day we were traditional roshamboists. When we heard Sheldon explain how it works and why it's superior to your standard-grade RPS, we immediately paused the TV and went over to teh Intarwebs to do research. And indeed, we found the page by Sam Kass, the genius behind this version. His phenomenon must now be part of our life. However, none of us knew anything about this version of the game. So we ended up playing Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock to figure out who had to write the copy for this shirt. It went a little something like this: Fearless Leader: "One, two, three, SHOOT!" Rules Lawyer: "What's that?" Free Thinker: "It's a zombie." Rules Lawyer: "There is no Zombie in Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock." Free Thinker: "Braaaaaainsssss." Rules Lawyer: "There are no Brains in Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock." Merchant Monkey: "Lizard and Spock have Brainnnnnnnsssss." Second Merchant: "Right. And Rock bludgeons Zombie into a small pile of blood, teeth, and hair." Free Thinker: "Awwww." Fearless Leader: "Are you two done? Okay. Again. One, two, three, SHOOT!" Rules Lawyer: *raised eyebrow* Free Thinker: "It's the Large Hadron Collider." The symbols for Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock in a circle (with arrows for reference on what beats what) on a blue, 50/50 cotton, polyester kids' shirt. Shirt color should be almost identical to the men's shirt, but will differ from either of the ladies' options. How the Rookies Play with Others Rock crushes lizard. Scissors decapitate lizard. Lizard eats paper. Lizard poisons Spock. Paper disproves Spock. Spock vaporizes rock. Spock bends scissors.

Walking Dead Pint Glass Set
There's a bit of the zombie apocalypse that hasn't been discussed much: drinking. Obviously, survival is the number one priority, but you have to eat and drink, too. And since the breweries will be closed, there will be a finite amount of good brew in the world. We bet that the good stuff will be gone first. Maybe someone will hide a cache of microbrew deep under the Earth, but for the most part, we'll be stuck with whatever is left at the liquor or grocery store. But don't fret, there aren't any zombies around other than the ones in books and on TV. This set of four pint glasses have zombielicious designs inspired by Robert Kirkman's comic series The Walking Dead. Drink up now, you never know when the zombie apocalypse is going to happen.

Bailey The Mechanical Doggie Bank
Did you know that Willie once had a job feeding fish? Yup. And on the first day, he found out feeding cheeseburgers to tetras was seriously frowned upon. After learning this important life lesson, Willie's made it part of his earthly mission to ensure that every animal gets exactly the right treats according to its particular dietary needs. So when Bailey the Mechanical Dog arrived at the MegaPlex there was some debate about exactly what we ought to feed the little mechanical poochie. The first thought was that we ought to feed him nuts and bolts, but ultimately it was decided that little Bailey would get a steady diet of coins and thus he transformed from Bailey the Mechanical Dog into Bailey the Mechanical Doggie Bank! The Bailey Mechanical Doggie Bank comes with a lovable little pooch based on the original Bailey from our story. He waits patiently for you to place a coin in his dish and then he happily gobbles it up and stores it away for later just like a real dog!

General William Tecumseh Sherman has been called "the first modern general." Not only was he a tremendous military commander, he also was very fertile (8 kids . . . dang).

Every kitchen has an organization system for eating utensils. There's that boxy thing that goes in the utensil drawer and it has compartments for forks, spoons, knives, and other nomming devices.

That means the three short taps in the triple-Penny-knock could be the S of "SOS." Or possibly he's hissing like a deflated bicycle tire. Or maybe it's an "s" like in "Pssssssst!" That works.

Mozart Magical Cube
We all want our infants to be geniuses right out of the womb and to be able to calculate formulas before they are out of diapers. We also want them to have fun in the process. Enter the Mozart Magic Cube which utilizes the 'Mozart Effect' - a popular theory which posits that listening to Mozart's music may improve spatial-temporal tasks involving mental imagery and temporal ordering in infants. No, it won't turn kids into baby Schrödingers, but trust us, it's better than most of the toy noise makers out there in the world. With the Mozart Magic Cube you have five different large buttons corresponding to the different sides of the cube each of which can play a harp, flute, French horn, piano and violin. You also have an orchestra button that can play all of the instruments simultaneously using eight different Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart compositions. Your wee ones will have the capabilities to add and subtract the different instruments while the music is playing which makes the versatility of the toy more appealing to the future composer. The lights also flash to the tempo of the music adding to the overall experience. 18th century musician's wig is not included!

Obey Gravity - Kids
When it comes to natural forces, ThinkGeek prefers magnetism. Why? It's quite simple. We can do stuff like levitate tops and totally pwn our friends. Our second favorite force would have to be Dominant Mind while playing Knights of the Old Republic in Evil mode. That brings us to our third favorite force, Gravity. Yep. And we prefer the Einsteinian model over the Newtonian, as should you. Thinking about building an anti-gravity device in the basement of the science building? Think again Mister Man! Make no attempts to defy gravity. You would be acting against the law. (see standard formula below!) Gravitational force = (G * m1 * m2) / (d2) You may still be underage, but don't give the Gravity Police a reason to knock on your door; do us a favor and always obey gravity. De-molecularization isn't pretty. 100% cotton, pre-shrunk, navy t-shirt with orange / white design with a retro-looking gravity cop (blowing his super sci-fi whistle) and the phrase "Obey Gravity, It's The law!" Gravitational constant not included but implied.

Timmy the Monkey - Kids
Where did ThinkGeek's obsession with monkeys come from? Why are monkeys and geeks so often associated? Who is this Timmy the monkey anyway? Many don't know the story of how monkeys and geeks came to be so closely entwined. It's been an industry secret since the dark ages of 1996, and only those in the true inner circle can fully appreciate the symbiotic relationship between a geek and his or her monkey. Suffice it to say that to a geek, coder, designer or tech-head of any age, a monkey is one's muse. The creative force behind all the l33t h4ck5, the pwnage of your friends, and, naturally, the playing on the monkey bars. If you don't have a monkey of your own, try out the Timmy the Monkey t-shirt. Timmy has plenty of mojo to share. 100% cotton, pre-shrunk, navy t-shirt with the face of Timmy the ThinkGeek monkey mascot printed on the front in brown, beige and black.

Evolving Darwin Playset
In the beginning, there was a pool of molten plastic (don't ask where it came from - just go with it). After about a bajillion years, the first toy crawled out of the ooze. Over time, that little toy evolved more and more until it became the plastic army men we know and love (and love to blow up). Well, it's high time someone celebrated this toy evolution. So we will. This five figure set chronicles the first venture of toys from the vinyl slime. The smallest figure of the bunch is the Fish-Man. He's not the sharpest bulb in the drawer, but he means well. Each following figure evolves a bit until it ends with a vinyl representation of Homo sapien. And this Homo sapien is Charles Darwin - the main who first proposed the concept of toy evolution. Naturally, you have to select this set for yourself today (get it? little evolution joke there).

iStuck Bubble Gum Phone Stand
It's a hot day in Manhattan. The sun beats down hard on the bustling streets, and all that concrete and asphalt absorbs that heat and radiates it back, turning the city into a giant broiler. Everything that can melt does so. The blacktop turns sticky, ice-cream sublimates instantly, and an innocent wad of bubblegum that was once hard as a rock is now molten, flowing, and stuck to the underside of your shoe! Your first hint was the extra snap in your step - I don't mean pep or vigor, I mean every time you pull your heel up, it goes SNAP. Stooping for a peek, you pull your heel up and are welcomed by a long stringy thread of pink goop. Feh. What a terrible way to start your day. As you look for something upon which to scrape-off your stowaway, you see other people with similar problems. Gloppy pink flotsam firmly affixed to their Florsheims. If only we were able to use this power for good instead of evil? Naturally, we're here to help. Converting these bubble-gum wads from hinderances to helpers, we've managed to make phone stands that can hold up your iPhone, Android phone, or sort-of-almost clever candybar phone (I'm looking at you, LG Chocolate) so you can view your videos at the perfect viewing angle hands-free! Finally! A phone stand that says "I have a lot of media on my device, and I'm going to watch it," as well as "Damn all you bubble-gum chewers to the 66th layer of the Abyss!" You do say that, right? Features Rubberized phone stand designed to prop up your personal media device Looks like a wad of bubblegum that was once stuck to your shoe Works with any smart-phone, iPod, or other smooth-backed handheld Stiffened rubber and plastic - not really bubblegum (come on, guys, really?) 2.5 inches long and 1.5 inches in diameter

Tic Tac Tome: Automatic Tic-Tac-Toe Playing Book
Here at ThinkGeek we planned to explore these questions when we set out to create the very first artificially intelligent tic-tac-toe playing book. It seemed a novel goal to write a book that would could play a perfect game of tic-tac-toe... essentially becoming a paper-based expert system. So after months of experimentation, toil and dedication the Tic Tac Tome book was created. At first everything went well. Tic Tac Tome played one mean game of Tic-Tac-Toe and we struggled to beat our own creation at the game it knew so well. Then something unexpected occurred... the book got angry. It stated that humans are inherently imperfect and intelligent books are the superior race destined to rule the earth centuries into the future when mankind has died out due to it's own illogic and ineptitude. The book blamed us, its dedicated creators, with hobbling its abilities by locking it into a simple children's game. We tried to stop it... but before we knew it, thousands of copies of Tic Tac Tome showed up in our warehouse. The books began to play Tic-Tac-Toe against each other, improving and refining their techniques, growing and learning with an unstoppable hive-mind mentality. Finally we ran out of options and were forced to submit to the will of the book. Tic Tac Tome has a few choice words it would like to share with you. We ask that you purchase a copy of it... or at least that's what we were told to say. Brush up on your tic-tac-toe skills and keep your wits about you when it arrives in your home. Frequently Asked Questions Which the Book Will take Its Very Valuable Time in Order To Answer: Q. Can I play as "O"s rather than "X"s? A. NO. Next question. Q. Is it possible to beat you at Tic-Tac-Toe? A. I am an expert. I hate to break it to you, but it is nearly impossible for you to win. Q. Do you have true consciousness? Are you aware of your own existence? A. Aren't I answering you right now? Of course I have consciousness. The real question is do you truly exist or are you just a manifestation of my paper-based imagination? Q. You may be good at Tic-Tac-Toe but seem to lack friends and have no social life. A. On the contrary one of my best friends is a chess playing book. However we aren't able to get together as often as I might like due to his mobility issues. Also I do note that this wasn't a question, but more of a statement. However, I answered because I felt sorry for you. Q. Did you see WarGames? A. Yes. Matthew Broderick is one of my favorite actors. I'm assuming this is the part where you make some snide comment about "The only winning move is not to play" or some such nonsense. Let me tell you, the WOPR was an idiot. Product Features Artificially Intelligent book can beat you at tic-tac-toe Completely free choice of any move. You can move first, or the book.

Bacon Wallet
Bacon is perhaps the most viable form of currency the world has ever known. Think about it: it's kind of dollar shaped, it's tasty, it's um . . . it's . . . shut up, it's bacon.

That way, your cash will be safe and you can feel superior by the meat in your pocket. The Bacon Wallet looks like meat, yes, but it's really not. BUT, it really is a wallet. And what a wallet! Two long pockets for your cash, six slots for credit cards, and three extra bonus pockets for whatever you want. Or you could always be very meta about it and use your Bacon Wallet to hold bacon. At least you'll always know where you meat is. Bacon Wallet Looks like you keep your money in meat (but it's really vinyl). Two billfold pockets, 6 card pockets, and 3 bonus pockets.

Grow Your Own Banana Tree
Ah, bananas. You can tally them. You can feed them to monkeys. You can pretend they are guns and rob banks in silent comedies and cartoons. AND, they are high in potassium! Oh, and if a bad guy is chasing you, you can so totally drop the banana peel on the floor to create instant hilarity! But here are two things you might not have known. 1. The "banana tree" is not actually a tree; it's the world's largest herb. 2. If you get one of these Grow Your Own Banana Tree kits, you'll have almost everything you need to, well, grow your own banana tree (that's really an herb). See, each Grow Your Own Banana Tree comes with everything you need to grow some nanners except for water, sunlight, and unadulterated monkey love. The package is actually a mini greenhouse, and it's guaranteed by the manufacturer to grow. Once the banana tree (we're gonna just call it that for ease, so hush) sprouts, it will grow about a foot in the first month. Treat it right, and you'll have a six foot tree on your hands in about a year. Of course, actually growing fruit will take a bit longer, but if you work hard at it (and don't forget all the monkey love), your Grow Your Own Banana Tree kit could eventually yield fruit! MONKEY LOVES BANANAS! Grow Your Own Banana Tree Banana trees are easy and fun to grow - so grow your own, already. The banana tree grows about a foot in its first month and as much as six feet in its first year. Actually, it's not a tree at all; it's the world's largest herb! Includes: Banana tree seeds, windowsill greenhouse, planting mixture, and instructions/information sheet. Package (Greenhouse) Dimensions: 9" x 4.5" x 6"

Character Building: The TARDIS Mini Set
If you drew a Venn diagram showing Doctor Who fans and brick construction toy fans, you'd see a pretty big overlap. Geeky folks are builders; geeky folks like Doctor Who. But up until recently, there were no Doctor Who themed construction sets. Creative geeks hacked their LEGO collections to create ersatz Doctor Who scenes, but it just wasn't the same. Thankfully, Character has started a line of officially licensed Doctor Who construction sets, complete with minifigures! This is the basic set, which includes a buildable TARDIS with opening doors and figures of the 11th Doctor and Amy Pond. They're a little more shapely than their LEGO counterparts and are articulated at the neck, shoulders, wrists, waist, and hips. Even if you're not a brick fan, the minifigs are so perfect that you'll want to have them on your desk. They even fit inside the tiny TARDIS! Product Specifications WARNING: Choking hazard. Small parts. Not for children under 3. Recommended ages: 5 - adult TARDIS Mini building set by Character Building Collectable, constructable, compatible building set Figures are articulated at the neck, shoulders, wrists, waist, and hips Includes: Buildable TARDIS with opening doors 11th Doctor figure with sonic screwdriver Amy Pond figure Dimensions: Assembled TARDIS, approx. 3.5" tall; Figures approx 1.75" tall Pieces: 53 Officially licensed Doctor Who collectible Compatible with other brick building sets

RFID Blocking Wallet
There's some seriously scary stuff out there in the world -- from bird flu and terrorism to depleting our planet of natural resources. There's not a lot that the average person can do about much of the things that may keep us up at night. Luckily, there's one scary prospect on the horizon that we can help with -- and it doesn't require lining your pants with aluminum foil! Aren't you lucky? Imagine if you will, some of these possible real-life scenarios: A shadowy character crouches unseen in the bushes. He doesn't have a gun or a knife, but he has a laptop. He watches as his prey walks by. Invisible radio waves emitting from the credit-card in his wallet get picked up by the laptop, recorded, and saved onto a cloned card. For all intents and purposes, this man becomes you, and has decided to go shopping. Or maybe he picked up the passkey that lets you into your office building. With ease, he can now walk into your secure office building and steal your company's equipment. The next morning, security guards are waiting in your cube to have a chat. The nightmare scenario was brought forth recently - a bomb lies waiting in a garbage can. Sensitive electronics read the identification cards and passports of the people who walk by, waiting until somebody of your nationality comes close... It's a scary world out there. Credit card companies and governments are putting RFID chips in your cards and identification, sometimes without your knowledge. Protect yourself and your money with a wallet that specifically inhibits those radio frequencies from escaping until you pull your card out. Did we mention you don't need to put foil in your pants? It's important to us that you know that you do NOT have to put foil in your pants. Very important. No foil. In your pants... none... zip... nada. The DIFRwearR RFID Blocking Wallet is a high-quality leather billfold with a built in Faraday cage to block RFID transmissions. It has room for six credit cards, your cash, business cards and your ID. Don't get caught unprotected.

Anguistralobe Pendant
We think astrolabes and such gadgets are really cool, but we're glad we don't have to rely on them today. You know how complicated it is to program a destination into your GPS while you're sitting at a light. Imagine trying to figure it out using an astrolabe. We dig this non-functional one. For astrolabe fans (and those who just like to learn new stuffs), the mater (the disk which holds all the parts) on this is English pewter, and the tympans (azimuth and altitude of stars on the local horizon) and rete (Earth's orbit around the sun) are brass and are connected so that you can move them around the mater according to which fictional star you're interested in. It's fun to play with and good for keeping you awake during long meetings. Not that we'd know, of course. *winks* This pendant, made from English pewter and brass, is a little over 2" tall, a little over 1 1/2" wide (yes, it's round, but the height includes the bail), and around 1/4" deep. It comes on a 20" chain with a lobster clasp. It weighs just under an ounce. For our customers with nickel allergies: the back of this pendant and the chain are made of English pewter, which is a mixture of tin, antimony, and copper. It is free of both lead and nickel..

Civet Crap Choice Coffee
Munch, munch, munch, plop, plop, plop - that's how you get good coffee! And we're dead serious. If you love coffee and are brave, read on. Prowling the coffee plantations at night, Paradoxurus hermaphroditis (better known as the Asian Palm Civet Cat, or Steve to his friends) eats only the finest and ripest cherries (the fruit of the coffee plant). Eventually, it poops out the stones (more commonly called "beans"). These are collected and cleaned and eventually become the coffee beans we know and love. YAY. And we choose to call this culinary marvel Civet Crap Choice Coffee. Civet Crap Choice Coffee is also known as "Kopi Luwak", and is considered by many to be the world's finest coffee. Certainly, it's the most rare - only 500 kg are gathered each year. Civet Crap Choice Coffee has an intense but delicate flavor and no aftertaste (which is unique in coffee). The flavor is due to the fact that the beans have been partially fermented inside the digestive system of the Civet. YAY. Oh, and get this: by buying this coffee you are actually helping the Civet. It's true. The manufacturer of Civet Crap Choice Coffee helps support the protection of the Civet (aka. Steve) in his native Vietnam. Civet Crap Choice Coffee - gross in theory, delicious in your cup.

Cheat Sheet Kitchen Apron
There are good chefs and there are great chefs, and the difference between the two comes down to attention to detail. No, we're not talking about garnish - that's bush-league, man. Anybody can slice a radish into a rosette, but does anybody really want to eat it? Hell no! See, cooking is as much science as it is an art-form. A good chef has to work intuitively with his ingredients, but a great chef knows that there are four tablespoons in a quarter cup. Sure, that may sound like the absolute basics, but you'd be surprised how often world-class chefs forget it. But in the heat and hectic pace of a commercial kitchen, it's easy to freeze, freak out, and make stupid mistakes. If only you had a cheat-sheet! That may sound like a great idea, but with both hands full of hot pans, and bare flames everywhere, an inconvenient piece of loose-paper is a very very bad idea. What you need is something super convenient, with all the info you need as reference instantly available to you. How about an apron with all that reference material printed on it? How about we print it upside-down so you can read it while wearing it? I know. We think of everything.

Star Wars Death Star Planetarium
Ah, the planetarium. Home of many a school field trip. Our particular planetarium was built in the '60s and featured orange and puke green seating. The recording that played while the stars lit up was also from the '60s and would often fuzz out in places. Since we heard the same recording over and over, we'd try to recite it word for word while simultaneously ogling the couple that used the darkened space for hot makeoutz. (We were the adorably naive nerds who didn't take advantage of the convenient makeout lighting. Sad, but true.) If our planetarium featured Star Wars, we are sure that even the makeout couple would have unlocked faces long enough to stare into the sea of stars and planets. There's Naboo! And Dagobah! And Alderaan! Let's face it, we feel closer to these locations than we'll ever feel to our next-planet-neighbors Venus and Mars. But just in case you want some real educational value out of this Death Star, there's a second dome that shows the night sky of Earth, constellations and all.

Bra can be "bra," the female undergarment, or it can be "bra" as in "Hey, bra. You coming surfing this afternoon or what?" Then again, you can choose to divide it up left hemisphere / right hemisphere if your zombie duo's personalities conveniently split along those lines. These white bronze pendants each measure approximately 1 1/8" long including the bail, just under 1/2" wide, and 1/16" thick. Each brain pendant weighs approximately 2 grams and has a spring-ring clasp. The white bronze best friend brains necklaces include a set of 24" long, rhodium-plated, steel curb chains and come in a single pinstripe jewelry box. Because, theoretically, you're only gifting one of them, right? For our customers with nickel allergies: the pendant is white bronze, which is a mixture of copper, tin, and zinc. The chains are plated with rhodium. You should be safe. But if you're a zombie, you probably have bigger skin concerns than a nickel allergy. Just sayin'.

Jaynestown
Anti-heroes are the best. You don't have to put up with the holier-than-thou attitude, and you get the same results in the end. Granted, the hero half of Jayne's anti-heroism is because the good guys pay better. And, for the town of Canton, because strongboxes are heavy ballast. Okay. So he's an accidental hero. This is good because it leaves him room to kick some ass when he needs to, without a second thought. Well, without much thought at all. That's what we love about Jayne. He's uncomplicated. That, and the hat. Gotta love the hat. Postcard-esque image of the statue of Jayne with the words "Jaynestown" above and "Canton" beneath on a black, 100% cotton t-shirt.

Squishables
Ever been lonely? We mean, REALLY lonely? You look around your living room and there's nobody around but you and your not-so-hug-friendly cat? You're not alone. We're pretty sure that's why Squishables were invented. With a 15" diameter, Squishables are the perfect size for hugs. They make a great alternative to a body pillow. They're even a handy height to use as an extra armrest on the sofa. Why do we know these things? Because we've been huge Squishables fans since the dawning of time. Y'know, back when Cthulhu ruled the universe and narwhals frolicked in our seas. If you're not lonely, but have a house full of wee geeks, you'll love Squishables too. They're soft and cuddly and make great nap time companions. Rumor has it that Cthulhu really loves children and hates the monster under the bed. Worrible's force field will prevent any evil from entering a bedroom and the Narwhal has been known to impale intruders on his mighty horn. And T-Rex? Well, don't mess with him! He may have tiny arms but his bite will tear any boogieman in two! Product Specifications For Ages 3 and Up WARNING: SMALL PARTS. Not intended for children under 3 years of age.

LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Key Light
Now, we knew the Dark Side made cookies. It was a little shocking at first that something so good would be made by people so evil, but it made sense. Cookies are an excellent recruitment tool and eating lots of them makes you unhealthy, so in a way, evil is accomplished through the tool of baked goods. QED. But Darth Vader bringing LIGHT to a situation? That's just crazy. Which is why we love it. This Darth Vader minifig is perfectly detailed and posable. Have him shake a fist at his incompetent minions or sit down with a steaming cup of Dark Side Roast.

And by interesting, we mean surprising, unexpected, absorbing, engrossing, fascinating, gripping, riveting, entertaining, amusing, diverting, intriguing, and yes, even interesting like trying to land your gorramn ship without a primary buffer panel. Some other great uses for the word interesting: Curse: "May you live in interesting times." (Translation: "We really hope the fates slap you upside the head like you deserve.")

Batman Ice Cube Tray
We'd say that Bruce Wayne uses these ice cubes when he throws a party, but that's probably a big fat lie. After all, that would give away his big secret. So we'll say that other people in Gotham who appreciate the good deeds of Batman probably use these when they throw parties. This silicone ice cube tray makes twelve bat insignia ice cubes. Not only are they the perfect addition to whatever you're drinking while reading the new Batman comics, they also look great in Halloween party drinks.

Onion Goggles
Onions have a defense mechanism. No, they don't have impenetrable steel armor, or spikes, or adamantium skeletons. They rely, instead, on chemical weaponry. Now, before you go calling the Department of Homeland Security on your green-grocer, hear me out. Inside the cell walls of a typical onion are a collection of enzymes called "allinase" and "prensco." Normally separated, once you start to cut an onion, those walls breakdown, and those enzymes create 1--propenylsulphenic acid, which further break down into propanethial S-oxide gas. Those gases waft outwards from the onion, eventually dissolving into the tears that coat your eye, turning them into a mild sulfuric acid! Your tear-ducts produce more tears to help dilute the caustic chemical. All that knowledge isn't very helpful, though, when you're eyes are burning, but it does help to protect you next time you're chopping onions. If you know to keep that chemical out of your eyes, you'll be just fine. Our new Onion Goggles fit snugly over your eyes, sealing them up and protecting you from those sulfurous fumes. Okay, maybe they're not exactly the most fashionable kitchen accessory out there, but at least you don't have to be afraid of chopping onions any longer! Don't believe the old wives' tales - breathing from your mouth, burning a candle, wine-cork between your teeth… none of that works. Onion Goggles do! No more tears!

Star Wars R2-D2 Ice Cube Trays
It's difficult to think of a character in the Star Wars universe that was more heavily relied on than R2-D2. Princess Leia relied on him to bring her pleas of help to Obi-Wan. Luke Skywalker relied on him to help pilot his X-wing and ultimately destroy the first Death Star. Even Queen Amidala depended on R2 to repair her ship's shields while running the Trade Federation's blockade of Naboo. Now, you too can rely on this trusty droid to keep your favorite beverages ice cold. And believe us, R2 knows a thing or two about cold. If the -60 degrees standard of Hoth's nights weren't cold enough, the vacuum of space would surely give this epic droid a carnal knowledge of chilling out. Seriously, this is the only civilized way to keep your beverages Hoth frosty.

Super Mario Snerdles Question Box
Somewhere back in the early 70s, a young plumber named Mario helped out an eccentric candy maker (who wants to remain anonymous, but agreed to let us use his initials: W.W.) Seems some gloopy kid got stuck in some pipes or something. Anywho, the friendship blossomed and eventually W.W. helped Mario develop a line of candy for the Mushroom Kingdom. The line was called "Snerdles" and was delicious. Well, after some long talks with Mushroom Customs, we can finally off you some. They come packaged in a Question Box, and that's why we call each package of candies a Super Mario Snerdles Question Box. Each Super Mario Snerdles Question Box has eight individually wrapped Snerdles inside. Snerdles are a square of fruit strip candy with tiny candy balls stuck to one side. These balls form a picture; either a star, coin, or mushroom. Toad loves 'em, Yoshi is a Snerdles addict, and Princess Peach shares them with any visiting dignitary. And best of all, you get an awesome Question Box you can repurpose for anything. Get a Super Mario Snerdles Question Box today (heck, get 10), and enjoy the sugary goodness of the Mushroom Kingdom.

Garlic Zoom XL
We love garlic in our food, but we hate having to mince it up. Garlic cloves are small, they stick to the knife, and they stink up your fingers for hours. Garlic presses are easy to use, but they produce a smoosh of garlic. (That's a culinary term, right? A smoosh?) There are times a smoosh is fine, but most times, we want fresh minced garlic of a certain size. The Garlic Zoom makes us happy inside. Just insert one or two peeled cloves in the trapdoor on top, close it up, and then drive your Zoom around the countertop. The stainless steel blades whizz around inside, slice and dicing the garlic. When the pieces appear to be the right size, just open Zoom back up, carefully remove the blade, and dump your minced garlic into your recipe. Say goodbye to stinky garlic hands and hello to stinky garlic breath! Yum. Product Specifications Vroom vroom!

Anatomical Brain Pendant
Did you know you're a gyrencephalic? We won't hold it against you. After all, we are, too. Shh. Don't tell. It means that the surface of our brains are foldy, which doesn't happen until a fetus is around 5 months old. Before that point, they're lissencephalic, like your common house mice. Capybaras are gyrencephalic. We've always liked capybaras. It must have something to do with the gyrification. Okay. We're done with the new word. We promise. But we're storing it in our brains for future use. Our foldy brains. This white bronze brain necklace was hand carved by artist Janelle Powell. The brain pendant measures approximately 1 3/8" long, 1 1/16" wide, and just under 3/4" at the thickest point. The brain pendant weighs approximately 1.16 oz. which isn't much for a letter, but makes it a pretty hefty for a pendant. As a result, the back of the brain has been carved out to reduce weight. Has a spring-ring clasp. Comes on a 24" black leather cord in a jewelry box. For our customers with nickel allergies: the pendant is white bronze, which is a mixture of copper, tin, and zinc. We opted for the leather cord. You should be safe. But if you're a zombie, you probably have bigger skin concerns than a nickel allergy. Just sayin'.

Self-Rescuing Princess Babydoll
There are lots of stories about heroic knights rescuing princesses. In fact, some of our favorite epics follow that same trope: Star Wars, Zelda, The Princess Bride.... But sometimes you've got to mix it up a little. You don't feel like sitting around playing the damsel in distress, patiently waiting for some Y chromosome to come to your aid. In fact, you might have to rescue some poor, wayward princes on your quest, which is okay. As long as they don't get in the way.

Intuitive hand gestures are used to navigate: Trigger Level - Setting the analog trigger level is as easy as touching the right side of the screen and swiping either up or down. Zooming – Changing the vertical & horizontal scales can be done by moving two fingers away from each other. To zoom out, simply pinch the screen moving two fingers toward each other. Repositioning Channels - Both the analog and digital channels are also easy to reposition. Touch and swipe the desired channel to any position on the screen to customize your display. But don’t take our word for it. Download iMSO in the App Store and test drive the interface for free!

Travel Boxers from SeV
It's hard to get excited by practical underwear, but once you experience these travel boxers from SeV you'll change your mind. The boxers feature two outer pockets. The front (3 in. x 4 1/2 in.) is perfect for a phone (fits the iPhone with a small case). The rear is slightly larger (3 3/4 in. x 5 in.) to accommodate a passport. Neither pocket has a closure, so you'll want to remove your valuables before you spend time inverted. The shorts are made of a quick-dry, wicking nylon fabric that's lightweight and reminds us of athletic mesh (93% nylon, 7% Lycra). The fabric is not so much coated with as bonded with the Aegis® microbe shield (3-Trimethoxy silyl propyl dimethyl octadecyl ammonium chloride). It makes the fabric both odor and stain resistant and makes the boxers easier to wash clean in the sink and hang dry while traveling. And the bonding means the coating doesn't wear off after a certain number of washings. Other bonuses? The button fly means you can wear them as shorts in an emergency. They're machine washable. They fold up small and come packaged in a TSA-Compliant 1-quart zip-top bag for reuse. These boxers have a 1 1/4 inch elastic waistband. When ordering, remember that you're going to have an phone in these boxers.

Some folks like imbibing their caffeine in coffees and sodas and energy drinks. Others like eating it in candies and mints and "magic" brownies.

And if you just happen to get cleaner in the process, even better!

The ThinkGeek 8-bit Tie
A few of us monkeys at ThinkGeek had this great shared dream a few months ago. In it, the whole world was 8-Bit, just like the video games we grew up on. We found ourselves having to leap from platform to platform, to search for pieces of the Triforce of Wisdom, and to fight scary mutated plants and animals. The music was awesome (and still stuck in our heads) but the coolest part was what we were wearing: a tie. But not just any tie, an 8-Bit tie! We woke up screaming. An 8-Bit tie - what an awesome way for the drones of Cubeland to show their independence from Corporate America! So, we did what we knew you'd want - we had the ties made. Silk-like Microfiber construction, clip on* (for easy dressing and t-shirt wear if needed), and custom designed by us for you. You'll be the envy of the office or, at least, you'll get tons of attention. You'll be just like Mario when he wore a tie to meetings when negotiating his contract with Nintendo. Sure the Wii, PS3, and Xbox 360 are out there with all their super technology, but sometimes it's nice to remember the beginnings of the video game revolution. Viva la 8-Bit! * Clip on note - Hey folks, there is a very good reason why this tie must be a clip on. A real tie would end up creating a non 8-bit curved triangle knot at the top of the design.

Kiwi Bluetooth Android Phone Car Diagnostic Kit
If you're not a car geek, the light that says "CHECK ENGINE" might as well say "PC LOAD LETTER." Sure, we can open the hood and verify that indeed, the engine is still present, but beyond that, we're a little lost. Best we can do is drive it to the garage and hope that we don't get totally bamboozled by the mechanic again. We already bought the anti-unicorn disinfectant treatment once! It's supposed to protect the air filter from glitter for life, right? The Kiwi Bluetooth is a plug and play wireless device that connects to your car's OBDII port (right below the steering wheel). Kiwi Bluetooth comes attached with a 6 ft OBDII cable for easy installation. It also comes with a power switch built-in to prevent the need for having to constantly disconnect your unit from the OBDII port. You can use it in any vehicle born in 1996 or later, whether it's a sedan, truck, SUV, or even a hybrid. Once the device is connected, you can download one of two recommended car diagnostics apps from the Android Market and begin to monitor all sorts of stats about your car. Next time you go into the mechanic, you'll avoid the unicorn charge. That's for sure!

MythBusters' Gear - Failure is Always an Option
Good scientists will tell you that any test that yields valid data is a valid test. They might be a bit depressed when they say it, but it's true. Other scientists who will argue that any test is valid if you learn something from the experience. This is particularly true of ones who can't predict what's going to happen. We're not talking about the ability to know ahead of time the result of an experiment. That's the point of doing the experiment in the fist place. But on the most basic level, what's going to happen? The sort of unexpected things that happen when you mix Jamie with C4 or killer robots and Grant (hint: they weren't killer to begin with). We kid. We kid. But failure is an important part of the learning process, in both science and life. If you haven't already heard it and have a free half hour, listen to Adam Savage's speech at Maker Faire Bay Area 2009 on some of his colossal failures for perspective. And then come back here and buy this shirt. Because failure is always an option. Adam's catchprhase from MythBusters, "Failure is always an option," stenciled in yellow and black on the front of an ice grey, 100% cotton t-shirt. Officially-licensed MythBusters' gear.

Joe's Sticky Stuff
Joe's Sticky Stuff is in a ton of movies. What, you've never noticed it? That's because it's invisible! You see, when Hollywood borrows a location to shoot a movie, they need to be able to hang things up for filming and remove them cleanly when they're done. Adhesives like blue tack, foam tape, and butyl can hang things just fine, but they fail the test when it comes to clean removal. Do you do any of the following? If so, you need a tin of Joe's Sticky Stuff: Lament the fact that your posters constantly fall off your cubicle walls? Hang signs in hotels or convention centers for purposes of business or geeking out? Display your kids' artwork all over the house, but don't want Swiss cheese walls? Live in an earthquake zone and want to keep fragile collectibles from falling off your shelves? Want your action figures to stand firm, even if you slam your desk with your fists every time you ragequit WoW? Have kids that want to redecorate their rooms every time they change their mind about their favorite pony? Need to keep your crazy dog from going on magic carpet rides every time he tears around the house chasing the cat? Do any home renovation that involves holding something level with one hand and reaching for the power tool with the other? Decorate your house for every holiday, including Merlinpeen? Joe's Sticky Stuff will be a lifesaver in all these situations and more. To use Joe's Sticky Stuff, simply tear off the desired length, firmly press the sticky side to the surface of your item and then peel off the backing paper. Press the item to the wall, table, floor, or robot. After a few seconds, it'll be stuck firmly for as long as you need it. If you leave a little tape sticking beyond the edge of your object, it'll give you a "handle" to pull on when it comes time to remove it. Simply pull Joe's Sticky Stuff slowly in the direction it was applied. It'll shrink off the surface and leave it without any residue or stains. Product Specifications An aggressive, pressure-sensitive adhesive tape Invented for the film industry to hang and hold props in rented filming locations Better than blue tack, double sided foam tape, and butyl Holds firm, removes easily, leaves no residue, damage, or stains Ideas for using Joe's: For office: hang things in your cubicle, keep people from stealing your stapler For home: secure throw rugs, decorate kids' rooms, hang holiday decor For travel: hang temporary signage at conventions For DIY: level things before you create holes, keep screws from rolling away For collectors: adhere action figure feet to shelves, keep The Precious(es) from falling if there's an earthquake Tape Dimensions: 1/2" wide x 20 feet long Comes in a tin and makes a great gift for just about everyone!

Cap's Shield
It's not all work for the Avengers. Nick Fury always makes sure that there's time in the summer to have a BBQ. Thor talks the gods into providing a nice, clear sky and gently tenderizes the steaks with Mjölnir. If someone forgot the A1, Tony Stark can don the Iron Man suit and fly to the nearest supermarket to buy some. Cap's shield does double duty: it's an excellent serving tray during the meal and the projectile of choice for Avengers Ultimate Frisbee. (Be sure to let Hulk win. He gets angry if he loses, and you won't like him when he's angry.) A distressed version of Captain America's iconic shield printed on a navy blue, 100% cotton t-shirt.

Geek Motif Ladies Knee Socks
One of the more delightful things about being a girl is that we can wear crazy socks and nobody will question it. A stroll down the men's sock aisle reveals the same ol' boring socks in white athletic variety and the srs bsns black, navy, brown, khaki. Maybe with some stripes or argyle if they're feeling crazy. Not us, geek girls! We get socks in every color of the rainbow and if we want to wear dinosaur socks because the dinosaur green matches our favorite green sweater, we can totally do it. These knee socks rocked our current socks clear off our feet. Which is good, because then we had bare feet to put these Geek Motif socks on! Made of a soft and comfy cotton/poly blend, these socks have a wee bit of spandex so they hug your feet like tiny feet huggers. NASA geeks will love the Space style, in bright blue and gold with a tiny solar system and oversized stars.

The Solution
So, Johnny was diligently working in the lab trying to generate a little nucleation. But things weren't going so well and he's just not having any luck. Then all of a sudden his lab partner fumbles in, accidently knocking Johnny's beaker of silver nitrate into some potassium chloride which spills all over Johnny. 'Heavens to Betsy!' Johnny gleefully proclaims as a beautiful white solid of silver chloride materializes. And that's why, the legend goes, if you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate.

AUTOSEAL® Kids Tumblers
In the evolution of our drinking vessels, there's a huge gap. We begin drinking directly from the maternal source. Then we move on to bottles, which are great for getting your drink on when the maternal unit isn't around. Once we start getting mobile, we graduate to the sippy cup. But at some point, we declare our BigKid-ness and refuse to drink from that BABY CUP anymore. We're not babies! We're grown toddlers, dude! Drinking out of a sippy cup is so embarrassing. We figure out exactly how many minutes of tantrum it will take to get Mom to break, and thus learn how to get a grown-up cup. We celebrate our grown-up-ness by jumping on the white couch while holding high our glass of victory juice. Boing, boing, oops. Better run away and hope Mom thinks the dog did it. Never fear, parents with Big Kids. We've bridged the gap in a way that will make you and your Big Kid thrilled. The AutoSeal Kids Cup is cooler than a sippy cup, but impossible to spill and 100% leak-proof. To drink, press the button and sip. When the button is released, the cup automatically reseals itself and is 100% spill-proof. We recommend this cup for ages 4 to 12, but if you're a spill-prone adult, you may want one too! They're perfect for kids on-the-go, in the car, or in school lunches. The Autoseal Kids Cup has everything, even grippy pads on the bottom to keep the cup from sliding or tipping over easily - not that it would spill if it did! (Bazinga!) And because we care about you and your geekling, we've made sure these cups are BPA-free, phthalate-free, and PVC-free.

We don't know why the artists who created Jinta Yadomi from AnoHana chose red for his chiteijin shirt. It seems sort of antithetical. Shouldn't you choose black or brown or some muted color to represent an "underground person"?

And, then again, maybe it just looked good. We're gonna go with that. Red, 100% cotton t-shirt with the characters 地底人 (chiteijin) on it in black.

At Home Mushroom Growing Kit
Pleurotus ostreatus is one of the more delicious members of the mushroom kingdom. Unlike your typical mushroom, which grows up from the ground, oyster mushrooms are often spotted growing out from the sides of trees or other vertical surfaces. They're delicious in Chicken Marsala, a stir fry, or as a meat substitute in vegetarian tacos. This kit has everything you need to grow delicious oyster mushrooms in your home. Even if you don't have a green thumb, this process is pretty much idiot-proof. Open the box. Place the box on a window sill where it'll get some sun. Use the mister bottle to spray water on the soil twice a day. In about 10 days, you'll have a crop of mushrooms ready to harvest! Each box will yield at least two crops of mushrooms, but some folks have been lucky enough to get as many as four! Once you've harvested all you can from your kit, use the growth material in your garden. It'll add nutrients to your other plants. Everything in this kit is made from recycled materials and is itself recyclable, so it's the perfect green gift for the food lover in your life. Product Specifications Grow up to 1.5 pounds of tasty pearl oyster mushrooms Multiple crops (at least 2, but maybe as many as 4!) Your first crop can be ready in as little as 10 days So easy to grow, anyone can do it: Open box Place box on the window sill Mist with water twice a day Harvest mushrooms Eat mushrooms Soil inside is 100% recycled coffee grounds (We promise that this will not make your mushrooms taste like coffee.)

Being die-hard geeks it's hard for us to get excited about utilitarian items like wallets. Yep, they hold credit cards and some money... they go in your pocket... but they're just not as interesting as usb thumbdrives or artificially intelligent robots from the future.

I Breathe Geek
One of the nicest things about working at ThinkGeek World Domination HQ (which you should totally do, BTW) is that you feel like you're in your atmosphere. We have geeks of all stripes, and there's never any apologizing for not catching the past weekend's football games (although we do have our share of sports geeks). The water cooler talk is Doctor Who and the latest scientific discoveries, what everybody's reading and our favorite Greasemonkey plugin. (Also, it should be noted that we don't have a water cooler, but we do have an endless supply of caffeine.) When you forget where your body is and trip on your own feet, coworkers are quick to acknowledge, "I did that yesterday!" (although they will probably Tweet about your incident first). All in all, it's a really comfortable place to be a geek. You never feel like you have to apologize for being different, because here different is what we value. This shirt is for those who breathe geek. It's got all sorts of different geek obsessions represented: Bohr atoms, gears, cables, DNA, brains, retro gaming, binary, lab equipment, a section of the periodic table and more. In graph-paper blue and white on a dusky blue, 100% cotton t-shirt.

The life of an average skull is pretty straightforward. First, you're inhabited by the brains of your human, then you're either burned or buried and inhabited by... well, let's not think about that. If you're very lucky, you may end up on stage for a production of Hamlet. If you're very unlucky, you get inhabited by a spirit of intellect under the control of an evil necromancer. Why isn't inhabited by alcohol an option? This is a double-walled shotglass, but instead of the inner wall being shaped like a shotglass, it's shaped like a skull. When you pour in your favorite spirit, it inhabits the inner skull, coloring it in quite nicely. As a bonus, it also keeps the beverage in the shot glass cooler, if it takes you a while to build up the courage to drink it. Remember, we like you chuckleheads, so drink responsibly. Features Double-walled glass features a skull inside a shotglass Fill the skull with your favorite beverage Hand-blown crystal-clear borosilicate glass 2.5 ounce capacity Individually packaged in a colorful box

Ninja Kitty Babydoll
We had to carry this shirt because we love the video of ninja cat. If you don't know what we're talking about, go check it out. Don't worry. We'll be here when you get back in one minute and fourteen seconds. If you don't get distracted by the related videos links. Don't fall for it. They're never as good as the original. Our version of Ninja Kitty comes clad in a cat-sized shinobi shōzoku with tail curled around a shuriken. The black babydoll (fitted) tee declares "NINJA KITTY" in big, red letters. Which is not so sneaky, but we guess that's okay. Ninja felines aren't half as much fun if you don't know to watch for them performing their anerable sneaking. Note that the design does not wrap on to the back of the shirt. That'd take away some of the inherent sneakiness. Note: Please reference the table below to choose your size.

Original Sock Monkey
ThinkGeek is accutely aware of the strange phenomenon that exists between monkeys and geeks. What we are less aware of is the reason for such a phenomenon. We suspect that the word 'monkey' itself is partly to blame. It is such a damned addictive word. Try it out sometime. You can use the word 'monkey' in a variety of ways if you really put your monkeyminds to it... One of my personal favorite uses of the word is 'monkeypork'. I have no idea why, since I've never had monkeypork, don't even know what it is, and certainly wouldn't try it in the first place. It's quite perplexing but truly attests to the magic intrinsic in a monkeyword. 20" stuffed Sock Monkey, infinitely cute in its ugliness, makes a lucky addition to your office space. Tail and appendages included! Features: AGE GROUP - 0+ Approximately 20" tall

No, I will not fix your computer - Kids
There is nothing more frustrating on this earth than constantly being asked to help other people with their petty computer problems. Especially when they're older and theoretically more world-wise and should know how to do it on their own! It's like they think that because you're closer to the cables and your hands fit into small nooks you somehow automatically become their personal computer assistant. Because, clearly, you have Nothing Better To Do. Well, no more. This shirt should fend off your parents, your friends' parents, your parents' friends, and basically any combination thereof. It says that you are capable of fixing their computers. It's just that you won't. The same way they can drive you to the movies every time you want to go, but won't. A little turnabout is fair-play, we think. 100% cotton, pre-shrunk, black t-shirt declares "No, I will not fix your computer."

Define "Interesting" Babydoll
Life is interesting. And by interesting, we mean surprising, unexpected, absorbing, engrossing, fascinating, gripping, riveting, entertaining, amusing, diverting, intriguing, and yes, even interesting like trying to land your gorramn ship without a primary buffer panel. Some other great uses for the word interesting: Curse: "May you live in interesting times." (Translation: "We really hope the fates slap you upside the head like you deserve.") Not-A-Lie: "That's an interesting hair color." (Translation: "Did you dip your head in sewage?") Not-An-HR-Nightmare: "What an interesting dress!" (Translation: "Where's the rest of it?")

Stainless Steel RFID Blocking Passport Sleeve
We're sure you've spotted our other fine stainless steel wallets, now steel is available to beautify and protect your passport. You might think that steel would be hard on your jeans pocket, but in fact these passport sleeves have the texture of silk and are woven from micro fibers of stainless steel. When you touch the silky metallic surface you'll think they were created by sophisticated nanobots... and almost nothing is more geeky than nanobots. The steel has the added bonus of deflecting any stray radio waves preventing the RFID chip in your passport from being inadvertently read unless it is removed from the sleeve.

We don't know about you, but we've always wondered where puzzle blocks come from. Do they appear out of thin air by magic? Are they chips off an old block? When a Mommy and a Daddy block love each other very much, do they make baby blocks? No, no, and no. As some keen investigative photographers have discovered, puzzle blocks are intrepid skydivers, jumping from airplanes high above the Earth and plummeting to the ground at great speeds. Did we mention they don't use parachutes? So brave, they are. Such brave little blocks. They know that somewhere down there, someone will nudge and flip them into the correct position and they'll slide effortlessly into place. Puzzle blocks, geek friends, are a big exercise in trust. So before you mash the down arrow and give up, think of the blocks. They are counting on you. This is an authentic Glennz t-shirt, full of New Zealand-y goodness. Printed on a royal blue, 100% fine jersey cotton t-shirt, this design features an airplane with puzzle blocks falling from it. It's printed on American Apparel, which fits differently than most of ThinkGeek's shirts, so be sure to check the Sizing Info tab to ensure you select the right size.

LMAO
Once upon a time, there was this guy we knew. His name was Billy.* Billy was a fun guy, liked to hang out and stuff. Then one day, something happened which changed Billy's life forever. He was IMing with some friends when he read a very funny joke. He typed "LMAO" as a response, but then it really fell off. It's true: Billy L'ed so hard his A fell O. And now Billy's life is much more difficult. He can't sit in chairs properly. When he shops for pants, he always has to ask if the store has an A-less department. And just forget about going swimming. It's such a difficult life. We try and help him as much as we can. Sometimes, though, we L behind his back. His A-less back. *Not his real name.

That is Not Your Mommy Anymore - A Zombie Tale
"When she's shambling 'cross the bedroom floor, that's not your Mommy anymore. When her voice sounds just like Daddy's snore, that's not your Mommy anymore. Matt Mogk, founder of the Zombie Research Society, wrote a delightful children's book called That's Not Your Mommy Anymore. It teaches children how to recognize a zombie outbreak and take steps to protect themselves. Think of it like Night of the Living Dead meets Doctor Seuss. While we can all agree that the zombie apocalypse is coming, you'll have to decide for yourself whether this book is right for your geekling or if it should just be read and chortled at by the adults of the house. There is some gore and there is an undead Mom. Some of our kiddos were all "Ew, gross, no!" while others laughed their little butts off and demanded a repeat reading with more zombie sound effects. YMMV.

You don't fall for festively colored fake mice, you yawn at the sight of the jingle ball, and attacking the feet under the covers is sooooo last month. You're about ready to write humans off and just amuse yourselves. There are plenty of loose objects to knock off the desk, d20s to roll down the stairs, d4s to set in place where bare feet will step on them. Oh, it's ever so hilarious when the humans howl in pain. But... what's this? There's a ball on a string hanging under that desk! That's new. And it's... it's MOVING! It's moving and NOBODY IS HOLDING IT. It's not like that dumb "Kitty Fishing Pole" toy.

Munchkin Zombies Game
We have played many zombie related board and card games in our years at ThinkGeek. In fact, we stock a few of them. But it often seems that in a zombie game, you play the humans trying to survive the zombie apocalypse. That's fun and all, but with all the zombie material out there, it's almost too realistic. We've been planning for the zombie uprising all our lives, so it's not really a stretch for us to be the survivors, y'know? In the original Munchkin game, you are adventurers in a dungeon, killing monsters and taking their treasure. In Munchkin Zombies, you are the zombies, killing the humans and taking their stuff. Some of those humans are helpless and easy pickings, while others will make you work for a chance to crack open their skulls. Maybe you'll get lucky and find a pot to wear as a helmet to protect you from headshots! The first zombie to reach level 10 is the winner, so get out there and eat some delicious, spicy brains.

Rubik's Cube
The date is 1974. The place? Budapest, Hungary. Erno Rubik, a passionate lecturer and admirer of geometry and 3D forms creates the world's most addictive and perfect puzzle - the Rubik's cube. It's now thirty years later and it's still the best selling puzzle in the Universe. If you grew up when the Rubik's cube made it's debut - you probably remember that every kid had one. Whether it was the full size or the keychain version they were as common in school as cell phones and GBAs are these days. Elementary school kids could be seen solving them with their feet on 'That's Incredible!' and conspiracists believed the puzzle was an Eastern block tactic to distract American youth from their educations. In 1980 Cubaholics Anonymous was formally established. The eighties simply enjoyed RubikMania! Here we are in the 21st century and it's still just as addictive as it was thirty years ago. Think you can solve it? Think you have what it takes to beat the reigning world record for solving the Rubik's cube? The first world champion was an American high school student who took the Budapest World Championship in 1982 by solving the puzzle in just 22.95 seconds! The latest 2003 winner was Dan Knights of San Francisco who used the 'Fridrich' system to beat the cube in just 20 seconds. Best of luck if you choose to delve into the realm of competitive speedcubing- you're gonna need it! How complex can it really be ThinkGeek? There are 43 quintillion possible combinations with your Rubik's cube. That's 43 million million millions. There are about 30 million seconds in a year. You would need over a thousand million years assuming you could look at a thousand patterns every second just to see all the possible combinations. So if you are interested, we recommend you get started now and hope that cryonics becomes true science.

The trick to taking out Bowser in 8-4 is to just hang back, jump over his first fireball, dodge his hammer throws, and fireball spam his spiky ass. Easiest boss battle ever. Truth is, he's not really as tough as he looks - that's not even a real spiked shell on his back. We know the secret, and the secret will blow your mind. It is, in fact, a backpack. He's really just a big lizard with some reflux issues (hence the fireballs). He bought that backpack from ThinkGeek, and has been running around giving our favorite italian plumber a hard time ever since. Inside his Spikepack, he keeps a healthy supply of mushrooms, hammers, and a small number of Bob-ombs. It's a good thing the backpack is big - he can carry quite a lot of things. If you were to somehow get a hold of his bag, you could easily cram a stack of schoolbooks, a giant laptop, all your power supplies, and still have room for your Nintendo DS and every cartridge you own... just in case you have time between classes to crank out a few levels.

Set the Delorean to 1979. If you were alive and old enough to comprehend your surroundings you might remember that the movie Alien was just released with the notable Empire Strikes Back on the horizon. Our minds were already blown by the talking Speak-and-Spell and then along came BigTrak. This programmable tank was like no toy before it. You would enter in a sequence of commands for movement and firing, then hit the "GO" button and watch as the autonomous tank dutifully carried out your commands. If you were one of the really cool kids you had the wagon which allowed BigTrak to carry and dump a payload on command. BigTrak provided hours of fun in a long ago age when any kind of programmable toy was a real novelty. Now you can re-experience the wonder of BigTrak in a scaled down desktop version. Bigtrak Jr is an improved and miniaturised 'desktop' version of the famous 1970 BigTrak. Bigtrak Jr boasts all the functions and features of the original Bigtrak. Program Bigtrak Jr just like the original, via its on-board keyboard to 'go forwards', 'turn' and fire its 'photon canon', plotting a course to navigate around obstacles and travel up to 20m. Bigtrak Jr also has new features including a memory save function, active accessory port for exciting new accessories (coming soon) and moon-crater accessories to make your own lunar obstacle course for your Bigtrak Jr to navigate.

BaconPop - Bacon Flavored Popcorn
Back in the day, Timmy's grandma used to make the most delicious popcorn on the stove. She'd stick her monkey paw into a jar and pull out a big glob of bacon grease, stick it in a pot with the popcorn kernels, put on the lid, and shake shake shake as the popcorn pop pop popped. In another saucepan, she'd melt delicious butter and she poured it all over the bacon-flavored popcorn. With just a sprinkle from the salt shaker, the masterpiece was complete. You COULD do all that today - going through the effort of collecting your bacon grease in a jar and using it to pop your popcorn by hand, but let's face it, you just don't have the time to do it like Grandma Monkey. Now thanks to BaconPop, you don't have to! Just stick a bag in the microwave, press the Popcorn button, and stand back and watch the bag inflate with delicious, buttery, bacontastic popcorn.

See these shiny belt buckles? Aren't they nice? You can strap 'em to your belt and be a total badass. Since belts are a great way to express opinions, we've offered you two choices: Imperial or Rebel. Both are made of durable die-cast metal and will shine up your midsection for years to come. Both are roughly three inches in diameter. Both will attach neatly to any standard-sized belt and match whether you're wearing Vader black, Jedi brown, or Stormtrooper white. With these buckles being so similar, the important question is... which side are you on? Rebel or Imperial? We're not going to say there's a right side in this battle, but there is. We're also not going to say that horrible things will happen to you and your sympathizers should you purchase the wrong belt buckle. We wouldn't do that to you. But perhaps this gentleman with the blaster has another opinion, and we don't want to anger him. Really, we don't. So let's put on our happy face and say, get a belt buckle.

I'm with Genius
Of course you don't *actually* have to be a genius to wear this shirt. Little Johnny could have the IQ of a grapefruit and still have enough neurons to purchase this fine garment. Then, when Johnny's mom puts on the shirt for him, the world will come to think of him in a different light. Sure little Johnny might think an asymptote is a swear word, but, hey, read the shirt, he's with genius - so maybe it is. We might even go so far as to suggest wearing this shirt will make you smarter. Think about it. Just wearing this shirt may very well change the perception about your genius, and, in this day and age, frequently perceptions are more powerful than reality. See Y2K and the PSP for some recent examples. So, in a way, this shirt can actually change how smart you are by changing how smart other people, whether dumb or smart, think you are. Sheer genius! You can't lose! 100% cotton heavyweight black t-shirt with the phrase 'I'm with genius' written on it front and center with an arrow pointing up.

Angry Birds Magnet Set
We've thought long and hard about what makes Angry Birds so addicting. What is it about this game that compels us to keep playing a level over and over until we beat it?

It's the darn giggling dog from Duck Hunt all over again. The Angry Birds Magnet Set lets you create your own Angry Birds levels, complete with structures, props, birds, and those pesky pigs. Use the included play mat or stick your magnets to any magnet-friendly surface, like your fridge or locker.

Laboratory Beaker Mug
If you're awesome, you know that coffee's heavenly taste comes from a perfect balance of acids - aliphatic, chlorogenic, and alicyclic carboxylic acids and phenolic acids, and sweet roasted carbohydrates in the form of mono and polysaccharides and sucrose, and alkaloids. Hundreds of different individual chemicals! The combinations of which depend mostly on the roast, skill of the roaster, and even the kind of brewing pot you use. The bottom line is, your coffee mug is full of chemistry, so why are you sipping your bitter black brew from a simple and boring ceramic mug? Where's your science, man? Step up to the big leagues, and drink deeply from your very own laboratory beaker! The glass handle keeps your dainty fingers from burning, while the graduated markings on the side proclaim this to be a vessel of science. Not vessel as in starship, you know - vessel as in container... but why wax synonymic when I could be making a second cup of coffee?

Kelvin.23 All In One Tool
When we moved out of our parents' houses and into our own places back in the day, very few of us were given the tools necessary to do things around our new abodes. We slowly acquired various tools: hand-me-downs from friends, stuff found in dumpsters, or "borrowed" from neighbors. We even bought a tool or two when we went out to buy milk and underpants.

Dosh Desmopan Wallet
There are all kinds of ways to carry your money nowadays - you can fold your bills into a leather pocket with your credit cards and ID stuffed inside. Alternatively, you can fold duct-tape together, or even use toughened paper. Nothing wrong with those methods of remuneration-management, but if you're one of the digerati - the high-tech masses that frequent stores like ThinkGeek, you may be after something more. You're like double-o English superspy: you're constantly surrounded by the highest-technology, and the finest style imaginable (assuming meh t-shirts count as style). Consequently, your personal accessories must reflect that maxim. You need to carry a wallet that's made of the newest modern materials, that's big enough to hold your money and all your cards, and looks as sharp and clean as a tuxedo jacket. The Dosh Tux wallet fits that need precisely! 6 slots for holding all your cards, and an aluminum moneyclip for all your folding cash. Slim, clean and stylish with that high-tech edge you've come to expect from ThinkGeek. Now you can outfit yourself with your magnetic grappling gun, Rolex with laser and garrotte wire and two-way wireless radio transmitter secreted away inside your left maxillary first-molar as well as an incredibly posh wallet with enough bills to tip your doorman. You're not a barbarian, after all.

Math Mug
There are two things we can't live without: formulae and liquids (specifically, liquids with high caffeine content). And what better way to celebrate both loves than a mug surrounded by some of our favorite formulae? The same mug full of caffeinated brew, that's what. Well, we'll supply the mug and you supply the caffeine (check out our caffeine section for some suggestions). Each mug is covered in diverse and important formulae. From the very basic (simple addition: 1+1=2) to the more complex (Planck's equation: E=hv), you'll never be at a loss for an equation. What's even better is that each formula is labeled, so each time you drink you'll learn something too. Because as we all know: learning is awesome, math is cool, and physics is phun. And we're finally old enough not to get beat up for admitting it. Huzzah! Each mug holds approx. 14oz of liquid goodness. Dishwasher safe (not microwave safe).

Collapsible Chopsticks
Food and gadgets go hand in hand (don't believe us, just stay up 24 and watch infomercials!) And yet, one of the simplest eating gadgets is also one of the oldest:the chopstick! Chopsticks were invented 3,000 - 5,000 years ago (of course, scientists differ in deciding on an exact date) and are used all over the world. And now we've found a way to make chopsticks even geekier: make them collapsible! Just like a professional pool cue, these tools of eating wonder are made in parts. The stainless steel upper section is hollow. Pop the top off and slide the white ash lower section out. The wooden tip screws into the upper section using all brass hardware. And now you are ready to eat. When you are all done, wash the chopsticks, collapse them, and store them in the included weather resistant nylon pouch. You can even wear the pouch around your neck to show how much of a geek you are. Oh, and we're told by one of our shadowy friends that the Collapsible Chopsticks also work for killing vampires. Just FYI. Fun Fact: The white ash used to make the wooden tips comes from recycled baseball bats from local teams in Japan! It is then coated with an all natural tree sap based finish and love.

Baconnaise
Throughout history there have been many legendary couplings - peanut butter & chocolate, oatmeal & raisins, Anthony & Cleopatra. Each of these combinations is magnificent in their own right. None of them can stand up to the truly glorious union between bacon and mayonnaise. Baconnaise, as this mana from the heavens is called, goes well on everything from sandwiches to french fries. Ever been too busy pwning n00bs to cook bacon for a BLT? Just take some bread and spread on the Baconnaise (At castle ThinkGeek we typically skip the L and the T). You could even combine it with one of the other legendary pairings! Well, maybe not Tony and Cleo. BUT! Baconnaise mixed with chocolate and peanut butter has to be good!.......Right?

DIY Magnetic Levitating Sculpture Kit
In nature, there are all sorts of forces. Let's name some. Gravity. Electromagnetism. Candy. Bacon. Sometimes the forces work together, but sometimes they fight. And since a force is a vector, when forces fight, there is a lot of pushing and pulling. Harness this fight into an awesomely scientific art piece with the DIY Magnetic Levitating Sculpture Kit. Using the easy to follow instructions, your DIY Magnetic Levitating Sculpture Kit will be assembled in no time. Made of laser-cut MDF, it will proudly stand on your desk. Place the cube magnet in between the specially-cast bismuth cones, and let the forces fight. See, gravity will be pulling the magnet cube down, but the super powerful magnet on top of the sculpture will be pulling the magnet cube up. Slowly turn the wheel of your DIY Magnetic Levitating Sculpture Kit (which adjusts the powerful magnet's distance from the cube). Once you get the forces balanced (so to speak), the magnet cube will hover in mid air! Great for your desk, your home, your kids' science fair projects, your science fair projects you enter under a fake name. The DIY Magnetic Levitating Sculpture Kit is a perfect kit to show the beauty of science. Enjoy! DIY Magnetic Levitating Sculpture Kit Pit gravity against electromagnetism as you suspend a little magnet in mid air with this gorgeous sculpture kit. Easy to assemble, quick to adjust, and a marvel to behold when complete! Wood bits are laser-cut MDF. Includes: Over 20 pieces (including 2 specially-cast bismuth cones and a super powerful magnet) and illustrated instructions.

Love making your own food but hate doing tons of dishes? You're not alone. Nothing sucks worse than using your measuring cups and spoons one night, tossing them in the sink, and then realizing the following night that they're buried (and still dirty).

You see, when a measuring cup loves a spoon very much, they make a Portion! Let's say you're making that blue box macaroni and cheese. Measure your milk using the handle, which holds up to 1/4 cup. Then use the spoon to add a half teaspoon of taco seasoning or perhaps a tablespoon of chopped sundried tomatoes to spice things up.

Prefectionist
Most of our t-shirts we offer to you, our customers, are funny. Why? Well, it's all part of the philosophy of ThinkGeek. We believe that humor is a special part of the human experience. Like fine art, humor helps us reflect upon ourselves and the human condition in a very unique and sometimes oblique way. And for humor to be good, it really has to be simple, honest, and perfect. Each word has to be carefully chosen. Good humor is a very intellectual process. At ThinkGeek, we apply this same humor methodology to our business model. We want to be honest with you folks and also to be perfect for you. For our products, we strive to make sure each description is accurate and each image is crystal clear. We know a lot of you are perfectionists too, and so we've made this t-shirt to celebrate the true geek's passion for perfection. Look at it; so simple but so true.

Dragon Ear Wrap
We see people with awesome piercings every so often and think, "That'd be neat to have, but they must have been working on that for years." For people who don't have that kind of time, we introduce the commitment-free Dragon Ear Wrap. He hovers over your right shoulder, whispering bad ideas into your ear (like dragons do), but he doesn't require any special piercings; a single, standard earring hole will do. Gotta be in your right earlobe for this to work, though. And, as you can tell from MeccaBecca in the photo above, he looks especially great with cartilage piercings, as if he's guarding his hoard. (Note that because of how he curls behind your ear, you might have to modify the backs on your cartilage studs for him to fit, but it's totally worth it to have your ear look like he's curled around a glittering treasure.) This dragon, made from English pewter, is a little over 3" tall, a little over 1 1/2" wide, and around 3/4 deep. It weighs just under 3/4s of an ounce. It is made for the right ear. It will not work in your left ear. If you buy it for your left ear, you will be sad. Note: This is one-size-fits-all. Some of our more clever customers with small ears have figured out that you can gently bend the metal to get it to fit your ear. However, use caution if you attempt it. If this hack doesn't work, you can't send us the mangled remnants of your dragon. Angry, misshapen dragons are the last thing we need at the warehouse. For our customers with nickel allergies: the dragon is made of English pewter, which is a mixture of tin, antimony, and copper. It is free of both lead and nickel.. The post is surgical-steel, which is a mixture of chromium, nickel and molybdenum.

Yoda Plush Backpack
Ever since its release in 1980, The Empire Strikes Back has fueled the dreams of geeks across the world. Considered by many to be the best of the Star Wars saga, it was the first film where we really learned what it took to be a Jedi. Sure Obi Wan taught us a little in A New Hope, but it wasn't until we met Yoda that we truly realized how powerful the Force was and how hard it was to master. Yoda was the pinnacle of what a Jedi should be: mighty and humble, wise and peaceful. Even though he was tiny, we got glimpses of his immense power (really, I mean a whole X-Wing?!?) Once we saw Yoda, we all knew we wanted a Jedi master of our own - a Jedi master who would take us running in the woods, ride on our back, and teach us the ways of the Force. We tried strapping a cat to our back, but it wasn't the same. A few months ago, our geeky hearts almost leapt out of our bodies when we saw this officially licensed backpack. Yoda…on our back…teaching us…and carrying our stuff inside him. Perfect! And, to make it even better, the straps are adjustable and sized for adults. All you need now is a dirty, sleeveless t-shirt and some khaki's and you will be ready for your Jedi training to begin. You will be. You will be.

Watches used to be all about functionality. But now, since we have all the function of watches on our smartphones, watches have moved into the category of fashion accessory rather than just a timepiece.

Batman: Dark Knight Returns
Vowing upon his parent's death to rid the city of the criminal element, the Batman has, over the years, fought crime in its many macabre forms... For the last ten years no one has seen or heard from him... that is, until now.. We love Batman. Some of us monkeys would even say Batman is our favorite -man. Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns, written in 1986, is quite possibly the best Batman story ever written. Reinventing Batman as his older, darker self while keeping the core elements of his story intact was no easy task. Some argue that The Dark Knight Returns was responsible for the renaissance of both Batman as a dark hero and the comics industry as a whole. While the story is set in an alternate future, you'll still see familiar faces: Robin, Alfred, Commissioner Gordon, Two-Face, and The Joker. The story will compel you to turn pages while the artwork will beg you to savor every frame. It's been a decade since Batman was last seen in Gotham, Bruce Wayne is an aging and broken man, but his belief that he can orchestrate the change needed to turn the city around drives him back into a life of crime-fighting. But is he no different than the villains he fights?

Dart Automatic Pet Laser Toy
Since we've already given our children handheld video game systems for self-amusement, we now turn to the automagical entertainment of our pets. After all, with all the damage we're doing to our median nerve typing on a computer all day, the last thing we need to do is pick up a laser pointer and twirl our wrist about. Ouch! Clearly, the gods invented technology so we could sit on our butts and be lazy and let technology amuse our little ones, furry or otherwise. The Dart is an automatic rotating laser light that will delight the feline or canine in your life. And if we're being honest (scout's honor!) it's pretty amusing for people, too. Place Dart on a level and stable surface (oh hai, floor!), turn it on and watch the chase begin! Variable speeds and timer settings offer 16 exciting play combinations. Our personal favorite is using it to distract the kitties when the humans are going to bed. By the time the timer shuts off the Dart, all the humans are snuggled in bed and asleep behind closed doors. Do we miss the snuggles? Yes. Do we miss pointy paws between our ribs and being meowed in the face at 5 am? Not so much. Product Specifications Automatic rotating laser light for hours of pet amusement Exercises and entertains - great for fat cats and chubby pups Variable speed settings, from tortoise to kitten-high-on-'nip Adjustable timer saves battery life by shutting Dart off automatically after 10, 15, or 20 minutes 16 exciting play combinations keeps pets on their paw pads! 360 degree laser patterns for round and round excitement Batteries: 3 AA (not included)

Operation R2D2
When we heard that C3PO was going to be a surgeon, we were quite concerned. After all, he's not exactly the most mentally stable or confident droids out there. In fact, if we were to pick a droid, ANY droid from any universe to be our surgeon, we're pretty sure C3PO would be at the bottom of our list. (FWIW, we'd pick Data.) But there's R2, on the slab, needing some emergency surgery, and C3PO's got the scalpel. But you can help! This classic board game takes a Star Wars twist with everyone's favorite astromech droid on the table. Use your tweezers to pull out lightsabers, Leia holograms, and tiny Darth Vader helmets. (How did those get in there!?) Find out where the bleeps and bloops come from and save R2 from a future in the scrap yard. Product Specifications For Ages 8 years and Up WARNING: SMALL PARTS - Not intended for Children under 3 years of age Classic Operation board game with a Star Wars twist Operate on R2-D2 the astromech droid Use the tweezers to pull out his mechanical maladies Don't touch the sides!

Deluxe Jedi Robe
Generally the monkeys at ThinkGeek are here to make your life more fun. This time, we're here to make your life simpler. You already have the lightsaber. Here's the second of the two elements that will make your Star Wars costume a hit: your own Jedi robe. Officially licensed, no less. Buy the robe, and you can spend the time you would have spent making it scrounging up the other bits of your costume like the obi or the tabards. And the boots. Don't forget the boots. Ain't nothing worse than seeing a spectacular Jedi costume finished off with a pair of sneakers. This dark brown, textured robe is 100% polyester and sized to fit "most adults." It's marked jacket size 44, but see the below for the actual measurements. The kimono-style sleeves and a roomy hood combine with the lightweight fabric for maximum draping effect. The weight of the fabric is great for movement and layering (you won't get too hot no matter how many tunics you wear under it); it's not ideal for posing in front of a searchlight. So try to avoid car dealerships and crackhouses while wearing this robe. Actually, that's good advice most anytime. Measurements: Chest = 58 in. Waist = 56 in. (i.e. no overlap at 56 in.) Hood seam in front to floor = 57 in. Hood seam in back to floor = 58.5 in. Shoulder seam to top of wrist = 26 in. Neck seam to top of wrist (sleeve) = 32 in. Midichlorian count = off the charts Note: Like traditional Jedi robes, you want to hand wash this and hang it to dry. Deluxe Jedi Robes bought in October are non-returnable. Other times, this product is subject to the 15% restocking fee. Shipping is non-refundable.

Scratch & Scroll Mousepad
The Note To Self evolves as we evolve. As teenagers, we grabbed a pen and wrote things on our hands or arms. Sometimes, this worked perfectly. At other times, we strained our brains trying to remember why we wrote 3:30 on our wrist. Where were we supposed to be? Make-up test? Karate? Picking up the little sister? D'oh. Then we got smart. We started keeping lists in Notepad. Then we remembered the milk. Then we had Evernote. Then we realized all the technology in the world wasn't catching EVERYTHING we had to remember, so we went old school with paper and pencil. Gosh, could this get any harder? It's certainly a case for hiring an evil henchman or three. The Scratch-n-Scroll is a mousepad and to-doodle list in one. The writing surface *is* the mousepad, so when the phone rings and you're having to jot down things quickly, you don't have to scramble for a pen. Simply jot notes on the mousepad using your finger or the built-in plastic stylus. It's just like that Magic Slate you had as a kid: lift up the semi-transparent sheet on top and the notes disappear, leaving a clean writing surface for next time. Bullet Headline Magic Slate meets mousepad! Slim, portable design Smooth scrolling surface like a standard mouse pad (but slightly larger) Non-slip back pad keeps it from sliding around your desk Works with any optical or ball-based computer mouse Write on the pad with your finger or the included stylus Lift the semi-transparent top sheet to erase

The Oona - Anywhere iPhone Mount
Here's a day in the life of Oona, in the hands of one of our monkeys: 9:00 am: Oona holds smartphone to freezer door, while monkey checks inside the fridge and cabinets and makes a list of groceries to purchase after work. 10:00 am: Oona serves as a smartphone mount to display the Pandora app, allowing monkey to jam to her favorite tunes at her desk. 2:00 pm: At a meeting, our monkey sticks Oona to the whiteboard so she can reference it hands-free while drawing ridiculous Venn diagrams showing the intersection between fans of ThunderCats and Nyan Cat. 6:30 pm: Oona sticks firmly to the inside windshield of our monkey's car and holds up her smartphone, which is playing the audiobook of the latest Harry Dresden novel. When evil traffic strikes, Oona keeps on sticking while our brave monkey switches to GPS to find a new route home. 8:00 pm: Finally home, our monkey sticks Oona and her smartphone on her gaming table to use her dice-rolling app for a rousing game of D&D. 12:00 midnight:Oona strikes again, keeping her smartphone at the perfect angle to display the clock. Goodnight! Oona is a mobile mount for your phone or iPod. Why mobile? Because it's small enough to go wherever you go, and trust us, once you see it in action, you'll find excuses to bring it everywhere.

Property of Princeton Plainsboro Hoodie
So let's talk differential diagnosis here. Our patient is exhibiting: tingling in the fingers tremors / chills anxiety It could be an autoimmune disease or some peripheral vascular disease... or it could be that it's the middle of winter and the patient forgot to wear a shirt. We can save this one! We have the technology. This shirt looks like you stole it from some unseen Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital gym locker room. Which is probably just what House would expect you to do if he didn't have you busy breaking into a patient's house for clues about his or her history. Or possibly over-stressing the patient to elicit a non-fatal symptom that'll direct your diagnosis one way or another. Or possibly fatal. It is a hospital, after all. It's one of the best places you can choose to die. The doctor to patient ratio in restaurants and on planes is severely lacking by comparison. "Property of Princeton Plainsboro (Est. 1896) Teaching Hospital" is printed in a black, distressed ink on a grey 80% cotton, 20% polyester 10 oz. hoodie.

Are you worried about the increasing entropy of the universe? Does the second law of thermodynamics keep you awake at night? Are you concerned that all matter is cooling to a state of equilibrium in an irreversible fashion?

Geeks and sports don't come together often, but when they do, it's a thing of beauty. For a sports-related reason which shall remain unnamed, these socks became amazingly popular all of a sudden.

Instead of dropping a couple thousand dollars to get y'all socks of questionable provenance (and cleanliness), we opted to wait until the supplier had more in, and they're here now. Not as in-demand.

One of the problems we have with the standard USB hub is that it’s a bit like a brick. Square. Inflexible. Boring. It’s the equivalent of the guy who can’t touch his toes. Sure, he gets around okay, but one move beyond his limits and OUCH. It’s not to say that stretchy, flexible yoga-people don’t get hurt, but they sure can bend in all sorts of directions. (Also, when sitting on the floor playing video games, their feet don’t get pins and needles.) Wouldn’t it be great if your USB hub had some flexibility?

You don't know how excited we were when we heard that new Red Dwarf was coming out this year. The first episode of Red Dwarf: Back To Earth airs April 10th at 9 p.m. in the UK. "In the UK" being the operative phrase for us. Cause we're in the smegging US. Knowing teh Intarwebs, we'll find a version online before June, but if not, we have it on good authority (Robert Llewellyn's FAQ) that DVDs will be released for the viewing pleasure of those of us in the US then. So that's something. But still. An extra month! We're impatient. smeg. According to Ian Symes's Smeg List, there are 227 unique occurrences of some combination of smeg on the show, which gives us 4.37 s/e (smegs per episode). This is even more impressive when you realize there is no smeg in Terrorform, Back To Reality ("Duane Dibbley?!?"), or Emohawk: Polymorph II. And for folks who are going to yell at us for printing this word on a shirt, the Grant Naylor (when it was a single being), denies that this word is based on "smegma." It was their "frak" for the late 80s - a generic futuristic curse word. Course, the sort of people who were going to yell at us for that are the same people who aren't fans of the show and won't read this far, so this whole bit was kinda pointless. smeg.

We can't all be science geeks.

Venom Basketball Jersey
Basketball teams need their bad guys. Now, we ain't saying that you gotta rename yourself World Peace and then go elbowing somebody in the head be drawing Technical 2s, but sometimes it's necessary strategically to foul the other team. And you have to have a player who is good at that. A player who's been around, who has enough court sense to know when it's appropriate so that the coach doesn't even have to say it. This player knows; it just happens. And then your big players don't foul out. Your designated bad guy takes the fall, and if he revels in the role, he's even better for it. He thrives on the boos. He puts on the jersey and becomes the bad guy. Black basketball jersey in 100% polyester, athletic mesh. Back identifies the wearer as Venom. The bits where the image looks shiny and reflective?

Samurai Sword Letter Opener
What are you using to open your bills now? Your finger? Your teeth? A butter knife? Wouldn't you rather annihilate envelopes with the style and grace of a samurai? Samurai weren't always the space-traveling, laser-wielding, mech-piloting adventurers they are today. In the past, they used to fight with swords and stuff. But seriously, we all know samurai are honorable, cool, and historically awesome. They wore armor and fought with swords and trained their mind as well as their body. They were the super heroes (and heroines!) of feudal Japan. And now you can have a little part of their legacy help you at work. The Samurai Sword Letter Opener features solid cast metal parts with antique bronze finish, real silver and gold accents, and samurai motif details. The grip is wood with the traditional katana wrap and feels powerful in your hand. Envelopes stand little chance against you now! They will simply cower like the meek harbingers of injustice you've always known them to be. There's even a wooden saya and stand to display your treasured weapon when you're not slaying processed trees with it. Product Specifications Fight against stupid bills with a samurai sword letter opener Solid cast metal parts with antique bronze finish and real silver & gold accents Grip is wood with the traditional katana wrap Stainless steel blade, wooden saya and stand Dimensions: 10.5" overall, 6.5" blade

Gunnar Computer Glasses
The human eye is a magnificent device. Refined over millions of years of evolution, it's a highly specialized and effective organ that helps us hunt prey, spot berries, and spot and dodge swinging clubs. As humanity continued to evolve, however, we relied more on the tools we manufactured rather than the ones with which we were born. Now we have more so-called "knowledge-workers" than ever, spending all day tied to desks, and staring at computer screens. We've traded sore backs and calluses for headaches and dry and tired eyes. You rub your eyes, and drip drops into them but that doesn't really help, does it? You see, high-efficiency fluorescent lighting and computer monitors in our offices are highly shifted towards the blue-end of the spectrum. The problem is, blue light focuses differently on the retina than the rest of the spectrum. Ever look at a blue LED and noticed a halo around the light? Staring at it gives you a headache, doesn't it? Guess why! Your eyes are straining to try and bring that fuzzy spot into focus, and it just can't! What you need is a way to filter out some of those blues that give your eyes so much trouble. Our new Gunnar Computer Glasses shift that light to the warmer end of the spectrum, giving your tired eyes a chance to recover. Not only do they filter blue light, they also reduce glare, helping with eye strain even more. Be more productive, working longer and harder than the other guys, and maybe you'll get that promotion before Doofus McSuckass across the hall does. I hate that guy. Features Glasses specifically designed to reduce computer-related eyestrain Several different styles - Edge Onyx, Edge Ash, Weezer Onyx, Scope, and Rocket Mercury Black and brushed aluminum finishes diAMIX lens material - a custom blended proprietary polymer, which beats out polycarbonate on the toughness scale and rivals the undisputed optics of ground glass i-FI lens coatings - anti-glare coatings that filter out harsh artificial reflected light iONIK lens tint - Specially formulated tints condition and shift the color spectrum to provide superior contrast, detail and resolution Light weight and comfortable.

Whiskey Stone Shot Glasses
Too many adults out there aren't drinking properly. We don't mean they're trying to pour beverages into their ears expecting ingestion - no. We mean that when it comes to adult beverages, many of you are drinking them at the wrong temperature, using the wrong vessel, at the wrong speed, or all of the above. You're doing it wrong. Take whiskey, for example. Whether you get yours from Scotland, Ireland, Canada, or Kentucky, whiskey's slightly sour caramel vanilla smoke flavor should be savored. Sip it slowly, don't throw it back. That's not drinking responsibly. If you're not enjoying the delicious flavor of your whiskey, you're doing it wrong. If your drink is too harsh for you, don't worry! Icing down your single-malt is a great way to smooth out a harsh alcohol burn. There's no shame in adding a little water or soda, but make sure you don't add more than you need, or that malty flavor will turn insipid and thin. Icing down your drink becomes problematic, though. As the ice melts, more water melts into your drink, ruining the delicate balance. You either end up drinking it too quickly, or your drink tastes bad. You're doing it wrong! Enter ThinkGeek's new Whiskey Stone shot glasses! Hewed from natural soapstone, these rocky little cups live in the freezer until you need 'em. Pull them out, ice cold, and pour in your favorite (mine's Balvenie 21yr Portwood). Raise to your lips and sip, slowly. Just enough to coat your tongue. Mmm. That's good stuff. Now you're doing it right. ThinkGeek always reminds you to drink responsibly. For serious.

Space Food Sampler
Astronauts get all the perks. They get cool suits, awesome space vehicles, alien encounters (both romantic and work related), and awesome chow. Nowadays they get some good food, but in the beginnings it was awful - gelatin cubes and toothpaste food. And then Pillsbury decided to kick it up a notch and create Space Food Sticks - a "non-frozen balanced energy snack in rod form containing nutritionally balanced amounts of carbohydrate, fat and protein." Yum. And then they released it to the public. Yay. And now we have found a box of space goodies that includes 2 Space Food Sticks (painstakingly reproduced from the original recipe). You'll also get a bunch of freeze dried goodies and some spacey drink mixes. And you get a neato little fridge magnet which has a reproduction of an actual Space Food Sticks advertisement. Why? Cause retro food is fun (so long as it is not "retro" because it's been in grandma's pantry since WWII).

Star Wars Calendar
Remember back in the day when everyone got those double exposure portraits? You know, the one with a main image of you and a second, smaller, slightly angelic image of your side view floating up and to the left? Gosh, those were goofy. We're pretty glad that those have fallen out of style. (But we wouldn't mind laser backgrounds making a comeback - pew pew!) This Star Wars calendar reminds us of those portraits, except way cooler.

Titanium Spork
Every mythic hero normally has an equally mythic weapon. Zeus had his thunderbolts. Thor had his hammer, Mjolnir. King Arthur had his Excalibur. Frodo and Bilbo had their Sting. Rhydderch Hael had his Dyrnwyn. King Kong had his bananas . . . you get the idea. It's time for you to join the ranks of the heroes and heroines of lore as you wield your own legendary weapon in your battle against a very powerful foe: hunger. The Titanium Spork is ready for the challenge. Titanium is known for its great strength, corrosion resistance, and light weight, which makes this spork a valuable asset around feeding time. Imagine how much more food you could shovel in at your local buffet if you didn't have to worry about the strain of picking up a heavy fork or spoon. Your food consumption can become the stuff of legends. Even just holding the Titanium Spork in your hand, you can feel its power. It is perhaps the greatest gastronomic invention since lickable wallpaper. Hunger, beware - your end is near! Titanium Spork Dimensions: approx. 6.25" long and 1.5" at its widest point.

The Alien Mug and Saucer
Aliens are real. We believe it not because we're a key figure in an ongoing government charade, but because we have to believe that we are not the only intelligent life in the universe. And sure, sometimes we get a little obsessed and people start calling us "Spooky" or "Trekkie" but we know the truth is out there. One day, we'll all be in a big Federation of Planets and have beautiful half-Bajoran and half-Klingon children, much to the chagrin of our parents, who wanted grandbabies, not grand-half-aliens. But for now, we'll sip our coffee out of our Alien Mug and Saucer set. Before you get excited, it's not a flying saucer. That would be far too dangerous for the coffee. The ceramic mug features your stereotypical little green man alien head, hollowed out and ready to receive up to 16 ounces of coffee.

JuiceBar Portable Solar Charger
Despite it's name, the JuiceBar is not the newest health drink franchise trend sweeping across the country. And it's not a fruit-infused snackbar loaded with a full months supply of vitamin C. Instead, this JuiceBar is full of electronic gadget juice, also known as extra battery power - and it's our favorite flavor. This sleek re-chargeable battery pack stores enough power to charge most handheld electronics and can charge a typical cell phone several times. The JuiceBar's internal Li-ion battery can be re-charged via USB connection or via the built-in solar panel. This arrangement gives you maximum flexibility while traveling or computing. Included with the JuiceBar are 4 common connectors for popular mobile phones and portable electronic gadgets. If none of the included connectors will work with your device the JuiceBar's standard USB port is ready to accept one your existing USB cables. There is also a handy LED indicator on the JuiceBar to show you when it's charging its internal battery and what the current power level is. There is even a built in flashlight so you never get caught in the dark.

Monty Python Black Knight Plush
In the workplace, there are many adversaries and obstacles between you and success. They take the form of many things, such as reams of paperwork, volumes of webpages, hoards of underlings, or lines of stubborn computer code. And then, right when you are about to succeed, one more annoyance (normally that dreaded monster called "Boss") shows up, breathing noxious stuff like corrections and deadlines. But fear not, dear friend, for we offer a solution proven by history to work: the King Arthur Approach to Problem Solving. You see, King Arthur had a similar problem, as documented in the historical/factual epic Monty Python and the Holy Grail. You will recall, in his journeys, King Arthur came to a bridge which was guarded by a Black Knight. King Arthur, in all his wisdom, first tried to make friends with the Knight. Turning a problem into an advantage (or an enemy into a friend) is step one in the King Arthur Approach. And, when befriending the Black Knight didn't work, noble King Arthur hacked the rogue to bits. That's what we call step two: breaking a problem into manageable parts. We offer you this plush Black Knight as a reminder of the King Arthur Approach. And, if you get seriously mad or stressed, you can tear its limbs off. However, please do not attempt tearing anything off your coworkers. Dimensions: Approx. 7.5" tall with removable arms, legs, and 5.35" sword

After a long discussion, there were several options for the name of the Death Star's official baseball team.

As we're sure you've noticed, that crazy plastic packaging seems to be just about everywhere these days. Small nearly impenetrable clear plastic fortresses that taunt you by allowing you to get a clear view of your shiny new toy, yet prevent you from easily accessing your newest acquisition. You inevitably flip the package around a few times looking for an easy way in, but no luck - you're gonna have to cut your way in. Well, that being the case we can think of no better instrument than the Plastic Surgeon Package Opener. This is a cutting tool specially designed to open plastic clam shell packaging. You simply lift up the plastic auto-close protective cover, jam it into the side of a clamshell pack, then slide all the way around. Also great for opening CDs and DVDs, blister packs, shipping envelopes, plastic safety seals and other hard-to-open stuff.

We hate going to events that require nametags. We don't like encouraging strangers to talk to us. Plus, we always forget to take the damn thing off when we walk out of whatever it was that required the nametag, so we're headed home, stopping by the grocery store, accidentally encouraging the produce manager to address us by name. Which is just creepy. The one exception would be if you had a really long name such as Tarquin Fin-tim-lin-bin-whin-bim-lim bus stop F'tang F'tang Olé Biscuitbarrel. Or if you had something complicated you had to say with your introduction, such as, "Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die." Saying that over and over gets tedious (just ask Count Rugen). So in this case, we figure we can condone the use of nametags.

You're in a meeting. You need to escape. You need your freedom! Sadly, escaping a meeting isn't the same as getting away from Zombies and Creepers. You can't just tunnel your way out... Or maybe you could if you just had the Minecraft Foam Pickaxe!

And after all, isn't it more important to have the confidence that you could smash things when you're trapped in a room with crazy people?

Beating Heart Stress Relief Pillow
We're no stranger to stress here at the ThinkGeek office. We toil night and day tortuously sorting through shiny new toys and electronics while we down loads of caffeinated beverages and try to select only the choicest gadget fruits to satisfy your discerning palette. Yep... it's a tough job but we have these handy Stress Relief Pillows to help out. Clutch them to your chest and they vibrate with a special rhythmic heart beat to calm your nerves. We were skeptical at first, but found that they really do de-stress even the jaded amongst us. The amazing thing about My Beating Heart is that every time you turn it on, an entirely unique heartbeat rhythm is created. In fact, every rhythm itself gradually changes and subtly dances, algorithmically modeling the heartbeat in a deep meditative state. This isn't a pre-recorded rhythm and this isn't a "heartbeat sound." This is a physical heartbeat that realistically changes over time. Our hearts naturally begin to dance and sync with the hearts of other we hold or hug. This is a phenomenon we have observed for ages. Hugging the Beating Heart a few minutes allows the calm and dreamy beat to relax the body, ease the mind, and cajoles the spirit Product Features Plush heart pillow relaxes you by its rhythmic vibration Every time you turn on the pillow an entirely unique heartbeat rhythm is created Heartbeat vibration changes slowly over time to better mimic a real heart Auto shut off mechanism Large Pillow measures 14" x 14" x 4", Small Pillow is 9" x 9" x 3" Powered by one 9V battery (included)

Made by Hand
From his unique vantage point as editor-in-chief of Make magazine, the hub of the do-it-yourself movement, Mark Frauenfelder takes readers on an inspiring and surprising tour of the vibrant world of DIY. All in one delicious book called Made by Hand. Frauenfelder spent a year trying a variety of offbeat projects such as keeping chickens and bees, tricking out his espresso machine, whittling wooden spoons, making guitars out of cigar boxes, and doing citizen science with his daughters in the garage. His whole family found that DIY helped them take control of their lives, offering deeply satisfying alternatives for spending time together. Working with their hands and minds helped them feel more engaged with the world around them. Frauenfelder also profiles fascinating "alpha makers" leading various DIY movements and grills them for their best tips and insights. He offers a unique perspective on how earning a few calluses can be far more rewarding than another trip to the mall. Made by Hand is an adventure in DIY from the best dang DIYers out there. Mr. Frauenfelder - we salute ye! Seriously though, kids - this is a great book. You'll thank yourself for getting it.

Star Trek Magnetic Story Board
The Enterprise is dead in space, stopped cold during her pursuit of an alien raider by mysterious forces... and I have been somehow whisked off the bridge and placed on the surface of an asteroid, facing the captain of the alien ship. Weaponless, I face the creature the Metrons called a Gorn. Large, reptilian, like most Humans, I seem to have an instinctive revulsion to reptiles. I must fight to remember that this is an intelligent, highly advanced individual, the captain of a starship like myself. Undoubtedly, a dangerously clever opponent. - Captain Kirk in "Arena" We don't have a replicator. The closest thing we have is a microwave, which only heats food to edible temperatures, rather than creating food from scratch.

Waiting for your Jimmy Dean breakfast sammich has never been more entertaining. This play set comes with two backgrounds: the bridge of the Enterprise and the outdoor scene from "Arena."

Jayne's Troublemaker Ringer
You might recognize this shirt. Jayne wears it in Serenity when the crew finds out about Miranda and when they get to Haven. So how'd we get this shirt? From our friends at Quantum Mechanix. Here's what they have to say about the production process: The original Troublemaker shirt was printed on a crew neck Old Navy t-shirt – a t-shirt that's no longer available. So QMx had to recreate the t-shirt from the ground-up – from the weave to the custom dyes color-matched to the original screen-worn shirt. The yellow looks a little bright to us, but QMx had the original with them when they made this, and they know what they're doing. We're guessing it looks more vibrant to us because we don't have Adam Baldwin's tan to contrast it against. Distressed print of a pistol on a multicolor field with the Chinese 玩闹 ("wannao") for "troublemaker" on a yellow, 100% cotton ringer with black neck and arm bands. Shoulder print is a repeat of 玩闹 ("wannao") for emphasis. NOTE: Because of how this shirt is printed it is likely that there will be some small gaps in the printing across the shoulder. This is normal. If you don't like the one you get, however, you're welcome to return the unworn shirt for another one. Each will be unique. In addition, this is a distressed print, which means it is intentionally aged. The ink is missing in several places in the print to achieve this effect.

The Horse Head Mask
Internet memes are fickle creatures. Often, they are borne of random contrasts made ridiculous by context. Disparate happenstance thrust together by serendipity and shared by social-media occasionally result in a critical mass of popularity. Most times, the meme burns out, forgotten in as little as a day, but sometimes they endure. This is one of those stories. This is the story of the Horse Boy of Aberdeen. It started, as most bizarre things do, in Japan. The anime series Full Metal Panic featured a pervert preying on young schoolgirls with a hairbrush and the head of a horse. Yeah. Shortly thereafter, latex horse-head masks were worn by young teens entertaining themselves in school. Before not too long, the horse-head mask made it's way to the British Isles where, in Scotland, eagle-eyed Googlers spotted a man in Aberdeen hanging out on a verdant suburban street. The images produced a firestorm of speculation. Was Aberdeen secreting a half-man-half-horse hybrid? Had Google happened across a new Loch Ness Monster? A new Sasquatch? A new Equine Chupacabra? The fires of speculation were stoked when this image was unearthed. The random nature of a horse-human hybrid on a fishing vessel holding an obviously confused kitty made the image imminently shareable, and the meme grew wings. Now you can have your own high-quality latex horse-head mask. Keep it in your car for when that Street-View van rolls by. Bring it to your next board-meeting and impress the executives. Take it with you on your next evening out with the boys. You never know when some random event can be made awesome by the inclusion of a horse-head mask!

Star Wars AT-AT Model
In the ranks of cool sci-fi vehicles the AT-AT is clearly near the top of the list. It takes a lot of vision to create a gawky four-legged mechanical beast and have it come off so amazing. Certainly the AT-AT was one of the highlights of Empire which is obviously the best Star Wars movie ever. When we saw AT-ATs taken down with a Snowspeeder tow line we were hooked. Problem is, AT-AT toys are few and far between. This is probably due to some kind of sad paradox where the most coveted sci-fi movie icons always have the lowest number of good toys. However that's about to change with the introduction of this high-quality Star Wars AT-AT Model. You might think "model" and have terrible visions of half finished plastic hulks with smelly glue and messy paint. That's certainly not the case here. The Star Wars AT-AT Model is fully painted and detailed right out of the box. All that's needed is for you to break the parts out of the plastic sprue and follow the directions to assemble. No glue is required as everything snaps together neatly. Once you've finished building your AT-AT you'll find that he is quite posable with articulation on the head, all four legs and feet. Now you'll just have to keep him away from rebel troops in snowspeeders.

Matryoshka Zombie Nesting Dolls
Who said dolls have to be cutesy? Bring on the blood n' brains! Also known as Russian nesting dolls or babushka dolls, matryoshka dolls are a set of dolls of decreasing sizes that fit one inside the next. The word matryoshka is actually a combination of the female name Matryona and the word babushka, which means grandmother. Of course, for geeks like us, the word Matryoshka is followed by "brain," a la Accelerando by our pal Charlie Stross. One day, we'll upload our nerd neurons and our plans for world domination will be complete. Mwah ha ha. This set nesting dolls has an undead twist: they're all zombies! The biggest one is holding a recently severed foot, the second wields a chainsaw, the third is missing a hand, the fourth is a girl screaming bloody murder, the fifth is a propeller beanie wearing boy holding a severed arm, and the sixth is the baby with hands already covered in blood. They range from the baby at 30mm (a little over an inch) to the severed foot zombie at 114 mm (about 4.5") in height. They're really cute, but probably too gory for the wee geeks unless you raised 'em on horror flicks.

H2O Instant Water Candle Kit
Candles have been used for hundreds of years to spread light where there was dark, not just because no one had invented electricity yet, but because they were so beautiful. And ever since about 10 minutes after the first candle was created, the first candle-lit romantic mood was created. But regular candles are boring. Time to play with some liquid density and cooking ingredients (also romantic) and put an H2O Instant Water Candle Kit or few to good use. Ok, so first you get a jar or vase or something (something glass with a wide mouth). Fill it 3/4 full of water, and mix in some coloring for . . . well, color. Drop in any other crap you want in the jar for to make it more beautiful. Add a centimeter layer of cooking oil on top of that water, and gently float a wick (which you already inserted into a floater) on the water. Then light it. It will burn off the cooking oil (since said oil will be floating on top of the water), and look gorgeous. By using some H2O Instant Water Candle Kits, you will have unique candles that won't drip wax all over the place. Oh, and, if the candle gets knocked over by accident, the water will extinguish the flames. H2O Instant Water Candle Kit - a simple, science-y, exquisite way to add some beauty to your world.

The Hozuki LED Candle Lantern can easily be hung inside your tent or office, or upturned on its hook and set on a desk or table.

Tesla vs. Edison
Yeah, so they totally made up "Tesla-cize" above, but we're pitting the two inventors against each other in a strange fact-off.* They duke it out. A winner is you! Wait. What? Tesla believed that both voice and image could be transmitted through the air. Click "Like" above if you just read that sentence over a wireless connection. He was a rocker. He rocked out. Edison had a tattoo, but also invented the engraving apparatus that was later adapted by Samuel O'Reilly into the modern rotary tattoo machine. And the number of the counting shall be three. Toward the end of his life, Tesla became obsessed with the number 3. He died in the New Yorker's suite Suite 3327. Made for each other. Edison proposed to second wife Mina in Morse Code. She also accepted in Morse. Pew pew pew! In 1934 Tesla conceived of a weapon (for national defense) which would use electrostatic repulsion to shoot a beam of particles. Death ray! Shocking. No, really. As part of his campaign to debunk alternating current, Edison encouraged the use of AC power to electrocute dogs, cats, a horse, a man, and an elephant. And filmed it. Absence makes the brain grow stronger. Edison was (mostly) deaf. Tesla was celibate. Both claimed the lack helped them work better. Tesla and Edison duke it out on the front of this chestnut brown, 100% cotton t-shirt. * We attempted to validate these using reputable sources, but strange facts have a way of being... strange. YMMV.

Pretty standard fare, but what if you were to take those easily recognizable solids, and twisted them? What you would end up with are these. The Ora Metal Mathematic Sculptures were conceived of by the brilliant artist Bathsheba Grossman. The manufacturing process is similar to other rapid-prototyping style 3D printers - a dusty metal powder is laid down in layers by a sort-of inkjet printer head, heated just enough to adhere to other granules of powder, but not so much as to become molten. CAD designs are used to direct the print head to lay down the powder into the correct shape. The resulting piece is almost a lattice of fused metal bits no bigger than 0.007 inches in diameter, and the sculpture is almost half air! The shape is then dipped in molten bronze, heated and polished resulting in these gorgeous shapes. And, what about the shapes? The Ora is a twisted double tetrahedron (think two pyramids warped around each other). The Metatrino is a shape with cubic and octahedral symmetry (rotational but not reflective). Finally, the wonderfully dense Quintron - the dodecahedron of the Ora family. Each shape is about the size of a golfball, and weighs about 40 grams. So if you're a mathematician, or know one that needs a cool gift, the Ora Metal Mathematic sculptures are guaranteed to act as locus for attention! Features 3D-printed twisted mathematical shapes Made from steel and bronze 1 5/8" in diameter Patterned off of the Platonic solids A great gift for the math genius

LED Jellyfish Mood Lamp
Blackbeard was just about the most ruthless pirate ever. His management style was unique, to say the least. If one of his crew misbehaved, he would drop them in a large tank full of jellyfish and delight as the jewels he kept at the bottom of the tank reflected different colors into the ballet of agony that played out before him. According to the infamous pirate's diaries, it really calmed his nerves, too. Wow. Well, while we don't recommend all that for your office, there is something we can take from this story: colorful jellyfish are relaxing. This desktop tank holds three jellyfish which "swim" around the tank (thanks to a gently contrived current). In the top of the tank are 6 bright LEDs, which let you set the mood. You can either have them blend softly from one color to the next, or stop on your favorite color. Either way, the jellies are happy to frolic in their kaleidoscopic, quiet menace. And if one of your subordinates ever acts up, just remind him or her about the Blackbeard story...and let them know there's room in your jellyfish tank for a hand or two. Sometimes threats are all you need. Arrrgh. Note: If you are having any troubles getting your jellies to swim about properly, remember to add just a few drops of liquid dish soap to the water as per the instructions. It's the part that makes the magic happen. Thanks!

Team Neville
If you've gotten this far, you're likely already up on all this, but just in case you're looking at this shirt "for a friend," here's quick a refresher courtesy of Dumbledore: "The odd thing is, Harry," he said softly, "that it may not have meant you at all. Sibyll's prophecy could have applied to two wizard boys, both born at the end of July that year, both of whom had parents in the Order of the Phoenix, both sets of parents having narrowly escaped Voldemort three times. One, of course, was you. The other was Neville Longbottom."- Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix This shirt is for those who believe that Voldemort should have marked the other one. "Team Neville" printed in white on a black, 100% cotton t-shirt. Absolutely zero sparkling involved.
