Is your living room, dorm room, or office lacking in energy? Is is so bland that you feel like you're stuck wandering the deserts of Tatooine? Such is often the case when we're renting our spaces and unable to change the "neutral" (aka boring) colors on the walls. Just how many variations are there on white paint, anyway? Add some Force to your decor with this bold Star Wars movie poster designed by artist Russell Walks. It features a silhouette of Darth Vader's menacing bust holding a stylized red lightsaber. The backdrop fades from red to blue and the Death Star hangs in the upper right, ready to destroy the nearest planet. Even the most boring of neutral rooms will be made instantly more swanky with the addition of this fine piece of art.

Book Mark
Oh, poor Mark, he has met a sticky end. Or should we say a squishy end, to be more precise? His floppy body is trapped within the pages of your book, flattened like a delicious pancake, all the while happily marking your place. You know - marking the page in that point of the story where a man gets crushed by a giant encyclopedia. Forget using pressed flowers or old receipts as a book mark. This new Book Mark is the low down, flat out coolest way to mark your page. And besides, what else can he do now that he's been squished flat? Book Mark is designed by Suck UK and related to Dead Fred and Splat Stan, so he's no stranger to tragedy.

Star Wars Belt Buckles
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. Pick whatever one you like best, just make sure it's the right one.

Star Trek Enterprise Bottle Opener
Imagine yourself in a diplomatic situation. There you are, emissary for the Federation to the Romulan Star Empire. Your duplicitous host offers you a bottle of his oldest and finest vintage of Ale. The greenish-blue liquor seems to glow with the promise of good times, laughter, and the feeling of brains bashed in and served on wheat toast in the morning. Being a properly trained Federation Officer, you know the ritual for the first pour: The bottle is offered to the guest, the guest inspects, approves and opens the bottle, and fills his host's glass. You dutifully take the cool bottle, and realize with horror that the cap is a pry-off, not a twist-off, and that you have no implement with which to open it. In a panic, you wonder if breaking your teeth would be considered bad-form. Your host's guarded smirk becomes a glower and a glare. Ambassadors are recalled, and soon you're left with fleets of starships poised at the border with photons loaded and phasers charged because you forgot a simple bottle opener. Way to go, ass. Next time, have one of these on hand. Handy and stunning, these chromed-out beauties do quick-work on bottles while still screaming Federation. They feel heavy in your hands, like a good phaser, so if diplomatic relations fail you, you can always chuck 'em at your hosts' heads as a weapon. Don't do that with the Klingons, though. They're more likely to laugh at you. Thick skulls, don't-you-see.

Say the word "kaleidoscope" to just about anyone and they'll instantly flash back to their childhood. Smooshing the tube to their face. Turning to face the Sun. Rotating the end cap slowly and saying, "Whoaaaaaaaaaaa..." Rotating it the other way and saying, "Whoaaaaaaaa." Fighting over it with siblings. Those were the days! Do we have computer programs and websites that make pretty colorful patterns now? Sure do. Heck, you can even get screensavers to make similar patterns. But it's just not the same as holding a kaleidoscope in your hands and watching the bits of color tumble and create fascinating designs.

Ghostbusters Logo Mug
We have this code monkey named Kirby. Yes, just like that round pink guy who eats everything. Except instead of sucking in everything around him, our Kirby spits out gems of wisdom about everything from how to become a millionaire to communist bees to how to best use Chatroulette. And one day, Kirby came out with this: "I have often thought about becoming a Ghostbuster. Because I am not afraid of any ghosts. But my grammar is too good." It is true. To be a Ghostbuster, you must adhere to the motto: "I ain't afraid of no ghost," which includes too many grammatical errors to list here. As lovers of language, we just can't bring ourselves to say it out loud with any sort of conviction. If you can say that you ain't afraid of no ghost without wincing, this is the mug for you!

Planetary Gears Corkscrew
There's nothing like relaxing in your favorite recliner with a nice glass of red after a long day at work. But rewind that scene back ten minutes and it's not so peaceful. Nope, it's you, wrestling with your stupid corkscrew and ending up with bits of cork floating in your cabernet. There are probably curse words. You probably wished you had bought the screw-cap wine instead. This corkscrew harnesses the high torque of planetary gears - the same you'd find in automatic transmissions and electric screwdrivers - to make opening your next wine bottle a breeze. A planetary gear system involves four gears: the center Sun gear engages three outer Planet gears and by their powers combined... *cough* Well, you get a wine bottle that opens with no hassle. Product Specifications Better wine opening through physics! Planetary gear system has maximum torque with minimal force from you Great for folks with weak hands (or who are just bad with corkscrews) Works on real and synthetic corks Stainless steel gears with a 6:1 gear ratio - STRONG!

Real Ultimate Power: The Official Ninja Book
Written by Ninja expert and enthusiast Robert Hamburger, this book represents a lifetime of collected knowledge. Pouring over all available resources, Mr. Hamburger has pieced together a comprehensive guide to the artist of death we know as “Ninja.” From basic facts to details regarding Ninja history and culture, this book leaves no facet of Ninja lore undisturbed. You will learn all you need to know to embrace the way of the Ninja and eventually become one yourself. Ninjas are cool; and by cool, we mean “totally sweet.” Here are some Ninja facts from the book - tidbits, if you will, to whet your appetite: Ninjas are mammals. Ninjas fight ALL the time. The purpose of the Ninja is to flip out and kill people. Ninjas fly all the time…not like birds, but more like hovercrafts…. In the olden days, ninjas would develop their strength by wrestling with dogs, playing video games, and just plain hanging out. Fortunately, not much has changed.

Science: We finally figured out that you could separate fact from superstition by a completely radical method: observation. You can try things, measure them, and see how they work! Bitches. The graph on the back of the shirt is data from the COBE mission, which looked at the background microwave glow of the universe and found that it fit perfectly with the idea that the universe used to be really hot everywhere. This strongly reinforced the Big Bang theory and was one of the most dramatic examples of an experiment agreeing with a theory in history -- the data points fit perfectly, with error bars too small to draw on the graph. It's one of the most triumphant scientific results in history. "Science / It works, bitches." on the front with the COBE graph on the back in white on a green babydoll (fitted) t-shirt.

Dr. Seuss - The Grinch Plush
Every Geek down in ThinkGeek liked Star Wars a lot, but the Grinch, who lived just north of ThinkGeek - did not. The Grinch hated Star Wars -- the whole three film season. Now, please don't ask why; no one quite knows the reason. It could be, perhaps, that his shoes were too tight. Or it could be that his head wasn't screwed on just right. But I think that the most likely reason of all... may have been that his heart was two sizes too small. So the Geeks of ThinkGeek tied him down to a chair. They forced open his eyeballs and yanked on his hair. "Watch these movies," they said, as they stared at his face. "They're an awesome adventure that takes place in space!" For three hundred seventy-nine minutes he sat, as Geeks recited each line while they watched and ate snacks. They cheered for the good guys, they argued about Greedo, and then Zack walked in wearing a Wampa fur Speedo. And the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before. Maybe Star Wars, he thought... doesn't come from a store. Maybe Star Wars, perhaps... means a little bit more! And what happened, then? Well, in ThinkGeek they say -- that the Grinch's small heart grew three sizes that day.

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.

Inevitable Betrayal Women's Shirt
Just like British actors in American film, poor theropods always end up playing the bad guys. At the beginning of the pilot for Firefly (well, okay, after the beginning beginning), Wash has those plastic dinosaurs, one of which is a Tyrannosaurus or an Allosaurus. Either way, it's a theropod that's about to be vilified. Let's face it. Whenever you have two plastic dinosaurs together, you know it's gonna end with one of them being eaten, so if you've got a carnivore and an herbivore, you know who has the upper ... er... appendage. Especially since the Stegosaurus is all, "Ehn. Ehn. I gots only orthal movements in mah jaw. Ehn." We just hope the Stegosaurus got to use the thagomizer (Gary Larson should get to name all these things) before its untimely end.

Sleep. The demesne of Hypnos and Morpheus. Once the playground for the exhausted geek, now a wasteland of antiproductivity. Are you writing code? No. Are you pwning n00bs? No. Are you farming gold so you can buy that mount in Silvermoon? No. Sleep when you die, man. Staying awake is the only way to get things done anymore.

Having trouble waking up herself, Gauri Nanda developed Clocky to shriek annoyingly and effectively, waking you up. The fun doesn't end there, kiddies.

42 Ringer Shirt
As seen on The IT Crowd and Transformers: The Movie! Most of us have spent some time wondering why we are here. What is the point of existence anyway? What is the answer to life, the universe, and everything? Well, you're in luck! Thanks to a supercomputer crunching away at a solution to that very question for seven and a half million years, there is an answer. It's 42. Why 42, you ask? Well, that's what the computer said, and as we all know, computers are always right. Of course the computer also said that we really never knew what the question was in the first place. As descendents of the Golgafrinchans, we all should feel a small amount of guilt that we beat out the prehistoric apes who were supposed to evolve into the components of the new supercomputer that was to calculate the correct question, so it's all moot anyway. In an effort to get some insight into what the true question is, Arthur Dent (who was unaware at the time of his Golgafrinchan lineage) randomly drew Scrabble tiles to come up with "WHAT DO YOU GET IF YOU MULTIPLY SIX BY NINE". Naturally, this question is irrational but completely understandable considering the source. So there you have it. And for the record, even though the number 42 is printed on our yellow shirt, the question is not, in fact, "What's yellow and dangerous?". Everybody knows that the answer to that riddle is Shark-infested custard. We are now on our *third* version of this shirt. With the television and movie coverage, you'd think somebody'd want to keep carrying it for us. Maybe the third time's the charm. This version, with a muted yellow fabric, is the same weight as the previous versions and also 100% cotton. Features the number '42' printed on the front in large blue characters with a black border. The previous versions, which you'll see in the action shots, were a blue body with an all-gold neck and sleeve trim and the same design and shirt with storm blue, gold, and white striped neck and sleeve trim. Once gone, those are no more.

Schrödinger's Cat vs. Pavlov's Dog
So Schrödinger's cat vs. Pavlov's dog. In a one vs. one fight who wins? Well, the first main difference is that Schrödinger's cat was a hypothetical experiment (or was it?), while Pavlov's dog was real. The loyalty. Real. The drool. Real. The need for a mop. Real. Real as he might be, though, it's definitely not in the canine's favor that each round of a fight typically starts with a bell. Plus the feline, if it exists, comes equipped with a box, a radioactive isotope, and a hammer. You generally don't want to give a cat tools. It remembers the time Erwin tried to put that silly hat on it. Just to clarify, by "fight" here, we mean "chase each other around the house until someone is declared victor." We here at ThinkGeek are big fans of animals of all kinds, and we think the only type of animal fighting should be for the comfy spot on the couch. Schrödinger's cat faces off against Pavlov's dog on this sand-colored, 100% cotton t-shirt.

Do the letters USB, PHP, and IEEE mean anything to you? From the folks that brought you Magnetic Poetry comes the GEEK edition! Now that innuendo-laden poetry on your fridge can have a geeky bent to it. (Yes, we read your fridge. And stole your last soda. Sorry 'bout that.)

Why not create epic stanzas of epicness? Quest for the perfect quatrain! Get iambic on some pentameter! We're going to give you our Best Ever Tip for managing Magnetic Poetry, so listen up. When you're taking it out of the box, breaking apart the individual words and admiring all the amazing geeky vocabulary you'll get to play with, organize them!

Dolphin Folding Ceramic Knife
Everyone loves dolphins. They're so adorable and friendly and do tricks for tiny fish treats. If you're rich enough, you can even swim with them and pet them and have them drag you around a big swimming pool. But dolphins have a dark side. There are dolphin gangs that roam around the seas, and they'll cut a mammal if you get in their way. That's right, dolphins carry knives, specifically ceramic knives. (Metal interferes with sonar.) We delved into the sea and negotiated with Bobby K. Flipper, notorious mob boss of the Dolphinos. When we surfaced, we had a crate of these fine ceramic knives. The handle is G-10, an extremely durable resin-soaked fiberglass. The ceramic blade is made of Zirconium Oxide (zirconia), which ranks 8.5 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness (diamond is 10). This very hard edge rarely needs sharpening. If it'll cut the enemies of dolphin mobsters, it'll surely cut the things in your life that need cutting. Product Specifications Amazing ceramic folding knife that looks nothing like a dolphin White ceramic long blade, 3.25" Ceramic blades retain a cutting edge longer than steel, do not corrode, and are nonmagnetic, making them perfect for bomb disposal operations However, they are brittle, so don't use it to chop hard things like bones or wedge them under things to pry them open Super comfortable 4.5" long handle with ambidextrous thumb stud Overall length - 8", weight 4.4 oz Features a liner lock and pocket clip

According to Doctor Who, the Moon is a great place to launch an attack against Earth. The Daleks use it to hide their ship from the Eleventh Doctor. The Judoon use it so they can extradite suspects (ohai, Martha Jones! meet the Tenth Doctor). The Ice Warriors thought they'd invade using the T-Mat on the Moon, but the Second Doctor foiled their plans. And even we Earthlings stick a penal colony there for political prisoners that the Third Doctor gets shipped off to. But the enemy which gets the award for being the most determined to use the Moon against us has to be the Cybermen. The Second, Fourth, Sixth, and Seventh Doctors all had to address the Cybermen's obsession with the Moon. That earns them the participation ribbon for their efforts. Good going, silver dudes. But really. Don't do something bad with it. We're going to need to build a university there one day. A classic photo of the Apollo 15 mission edited (or was it?) to include the TARDIS on a black, 100% cotton t-shirt.

Sundial Ring
Technology is awesome, but can we trust it? How can we be sure that our cell phones aren't recording our brain waves and transmitting our ideas to evil corporations? How can we be sure that our watches aren't silently recording our pulses and sending the data to Big Food so they know when to advertise those juicy bacon cheeseburgers on TV and ruin our diet plans? Yeah, see, now you're paranoid too. We've taken the mirrors out of our bathrooms to avoid that classic horror movie moment, too. We recommend you do the same. Preventative paranoia is the key to success. Part of our plan is eschewing traditional watches for the sundial. Inspired by designs from Babylonia, Egypt, the Celts of Northern Europe, the Mayans and Incas and Aztecs, we've found the most imaginative and accurate wearable sundials anywhere. Instructions for reading your new sundial are included. Batteries, however, are not. They're not needed! Who needs batteries to sense the rhythms of the solar system? Guaranteed to work as long as the sun rises... and we don't want to think about the day that stops happening. How the Sundial works... On a sunny day, suspend the sundial by its black satin cord. Through a tiny hole, a thin ray of sunshine will illuminate a number on the inside of the dial showing the time of day. This Aquitaine sundial was named after Eleanor of Aquitaine, who gave one to King Henry II of England so Henry would know when to return from the hunt for their love trysts. (One must always be timely for love trysts. Tryst us on that one.) How the Stardial works... Set the middle wheel to the month, hold the dial upside down, and sight the North Star through the center hole. Move the top of the dial's arm to align with the uppermost stars of the Big Dipper, and read the time on the inner dial where the arm crosses the hour mark! Star dials were first used in the 15th century by navigators and are extremely accurate because they are based on the North Star. Product Features Pewter sundial & stardial ring pendants Tell the time without electricity, gears, or other technology Modeled after historical timepieces Approximately 1.3 inches (3.3 cm) in diameter Comes with a 30" black silk cord (or supply your own chain)

Milk Straws Variety Pack
As parents, we're torn between wanting to give our geeklings things that are Good and things that are Good For Them. (Heck, we haven't even mastered that for ourselves!) Since the survey says that growing bones need calcium from milk products but not the added sugar and fat of flavored milk products, we knew there had to be a solution to have your candied milk and drink healthy, too. Milk Straws are a fun and mess-free way to enjoy a cold glass of milk. Simply choose from one of eight delicious flavors: Chocolate, Strawberry, Cookies& Cream, Vanilla Milkshake, Strawberry Banana, Wild Berry, Orange Cream, or Banana. Pop it in your milk and slurp away. The special flavor pods inside the straw will magically transform plain ol' milk into something delicious, without adding any fat and very little sugar. No refrigeration is required, so you can pack a Milk Straw in your kiddo's backpack so they can be the envy of the cafeteria at lunchtime. Product Specifications Magical straws that change the flavor of regular milk 48-count variety pack includes: Chocolate, Strawberry, Cookies & Cream, Vanilla Milkshake, Banana Strawberry, Peanut Butter Chocolate, Wild Berry Orange Cream, and Banana.

For Science!
According to Aristotle's Rhetoric, there are seven causes of human motivation: Chance Nature Compulsion Habit Reason Anger Appetite We're going to add one more that he missed: for Science. He was probably just being polite. The guy credited with setting down the scientific method as inductions made from known certainties probably just didn't want to toot his own horn. Plus, Science really fits into many of the other categories, also. We enjoy doing Science. It creates pleasure. Therefore it is an Appetite. But also, maybe our personal goal is to achieve or understand truths, and therefore Science becomes part of Reason. Or maybe, for some high schoolers, it is a Compulsion because they gotta take this freaking Earth Science class to graduate. But even so, the fact that the motivation "for Science" fits into so many of the categories explains why it needs its own. So here you go. Here's your excuse. When you're telling the cops, the jury, the Nobel committee, the National Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences why you did it? Tell them the truth. You did it for science! "For Science!" in a distressed, yellow print on a dusky blue, 100% cotton t-shirt.

Timmy's Tea Sampler
How do we hate tea bags, let us count the ways! Sadly, 95% of tea sales in the U.S are in tea bag form and they usually contain the crappiest tea possible. Since looseleaf tea can't expand in a bag, tea merchants decided to fill the bags with smaller leaves. Called "fannings" or "dust," this grade of tea is essentially the byproduct of real tea production. If you drink tea made from tea bags, you're getting water dressed in brown. Gross. No wonder people feel the need to dump tons of sugar in it! (Let's face it, people: "sweet tea" may be delicious, but it's really brown sugar water.) If you think you hate tea, blame it on the tea industry and boldly go give looseleaf tea a try. We've teamed up with the tea gods at Adagio Teas to make four scrumtrulescent ThinkGeek exclusive blends. Each tin in the sampler contains enough looseleaf tea to make about 10 cups. From the replicator on the Enterprise comes Tea Earl Grey Hot, choice of fine Starfleet captains everywhere. Want something sweet and intoxicating like the feeling of having multiple lives? Pour yourself a cup of Timmy's 1UP Jasmine Green. Zombies short on brains will love the tangy Zombie Blood Orange and we'll guarantee that the spicy Pirate Chai will fight off scurvy almost as well as Root Jack. Remember, there was a time when when you "brewed" coffee by pouring hot water over tiny dehydrated coffee crystals. (It was not the best part of waking up or good to the last drop.) But we learned the error of our ways and now have delicious coffee on every street corner and in every home. Let's start the tea revolution - Timmy's leading the way!

Ladies Electronic Rock Guitar Shirt
Here at ThinkGeek we were just wishing for a fully playable guitar built into a t-shirt when along came the Pixie of ROCK... she wailed with face melting guitar solo and *POOF* there it was in our hands...The Electronic Rock Guitar Shirt. We turned on the mini amp, cranked the volume to 11 and started to rock. As the Pixie explained, the Electronic Guitar Shirt is incredibly easy to play because each button on the neck is a major chord. She went on to mention how you can play dozens of classic rock songs with very little skill. However she warned us never to use the Guitar Shirt for evil, lest we are prepared to summon the Demon of Rock and duel to the death for musical supremacy. Now you can purchase one of these fine Electronic Rock Guitar Shirts and get a little wearable ROCK magic for yourself. The Electronic Guitar Shirt is not a toy that plays pre-canned musical riffs, it is a real musical instrument that allows you to play your favorite songs and sound great doing it.

Death Star Wall Cling
Everybody remembers where they were the day those terrorist rebels destroyed the Death Star. It was a dark day for the Empire - one that no one from the Outer-Rim to the Coreward worlds will ever forget. The rebellion hates us for our order, they hate us for our laws, and they hate us for our freedom - and only want to systematically destroy everything we've worked so hard for - for what the Emperor, in his infinite wisdom and mercy, has given us these past twenty years. We've been complacent. Content to enjoy the benefits the Empire has given us. No longer. We've swept away the last remnants of the Old Republic with the dissolution of the Senate. Now, in a secret location in the Outer Rim, we're building a new Death Star! After that dark day in the Yavin system, we've heard the rallying cry, "Build it again!" Engineers from every facet of society are converging and are hard at work making a new Death Star with which to finally crush this pitiful band of malcontents! But the Empire needs your help! Keep the Death Star in your hearts and minds by proudly displaying this vinyl depiction of the new Death Star in your bedroom or office! 50 inches in diameter, this highly detailed cling looks fantastic! See the detail of all the unfinished decks still being built! Note the enormous planet-buster cannon - it almost looks fully armed and operational, doesn't it? All proceeds from the sale of the Death Star Wall Cling go directly to the Imperial Fund to Rebuild the Death Star.

Phantom Keystroker V2
With the advent of the incessantly beeping and easily concealable Annoy-a-tron, ThinkGeek has ushered in a new era of sophisticated office pranks sure to drive your co-workers bonkers while you snicker silently at your desk. Now the next advanced level in stealthy office joke electronics is ready for your enjoyment. The Phantom Keystroker may look like a harmless usb thumb drive, but it's actually a devious contraption of unlimited office-based torture. Simply discreetly attach the Phantom Keystroker to any extra USB port on your victim's computer, no drivers needed. The Keystroker emulates a keyboard and mouse and periodically makes random mouse movements, toggles caps-lock and types out odd garbage text and phrases. Switches on the side allow you to choose between keyboard garbage typing, caps lock-toggle, annoying mouse movements or all three. An adjustment dial sets the duration between "events". We recommend you don't set it too frequently so as to extend the agony. Your hapless co-worker pal will think his computer has been possessed or infected by a destructive virus. As he writhes in anger and furiously dials tech support you can rest easy with a job well done. WARNING The Phantom Keystroker never hits the return key and it never clicks the mouse button. However you should not use it on anyone's system who is doing critical work where disruption could cause serious consequences. The Phantom Keystroker is a joke, like any joke you need to use prudence and judgement when executing it. You have been warned!

I'm Here Because You Broke Something
You know what prompted this shirt. One too many incredulous "What are you still doing here?" (emphasis on word of choice, all equally annoying) from the boss. Here's the mental conversation you get to have at that moment: "Oh wait. I know what I'm still doing here. I'm fixing the stuff you so graciously broke earlier today." Unfortunately, you mumble your actual response or couch it in technical jargon that's beyond the INT of those who ask this question so that they cannot not comprehend that it is because of them that you are still here. When you're sick of that, you're ready for this shirt. Generally the phrase "Well, you'd better go home soon!" can put us right over that edge. We recommend you keep this shirt at your desk to change into at 2 a.m. so that when your coworkers start showing up at 8, you're wearing a different, fresh (and yet entirely applicable) shirt. "I'm here because you broke something." in white on a black, 100% cotton t-shirt.

Stainless Steel Carabiner Mug
When the Fellowship was attempting to escape the horrors of Moria, Gandalf slowed and confronted the Balrog on the bridge at Khazad-džm, giving his troupe a few blessed moments to escape the burning titan's flaming fury. What isn't known to all, however, is that Gandalf was hoping to escape, himself! He was slowed because he hadn't had his usual morning victuals of coffee and donuts. Coffee, when diving into a subterranean hell, is fraught with problems - the least of which is how to drink it! Ceramic mugs break easily against sharp stones, and skins impart a foul formaldehyde flavor to your brew. If Gandalf only had a sturdy, perhaps metal, vessel from which to drink his morning pick-me-up, who knows what could have happened? Maybe he would have escaped the Balrog. He could have given the Fellowship advanced warning of the Uruk-hai hunting them. He may have been able to successfully hold the tenuous bonds of the Fellowship together so that Merry and Pippin wouldn't have been kidnapped. He could have escorted them through the Black Gates themselves, laid waste to the hordes blocking them from Mount Doom, and destroyed the ring before Saruman could have raised his army. None of which happened because he missed a single cup of coffee. Why would you do that to yourself? Get yourself this stainless-steel mug with a carabiner handle, so you can clip your favorite caffeine delivery vessel to your belt-loop, and always have it handy.

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

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.

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.

These palm size puzzles are almost too deviously evil to inflict on you and your friends. The moment these solid metal precision crafted monstrosities arrived from Japan, productivity at the ThinkGeek world headquarters dropped to an all time low as puzzle solving obsession kicked in. In fact we barely had time to write this description because we've been fiddling with these lovely things for days. The Fiendish Japanese Pocket Puzzles are based on classic mechanical puzzles from around the world. What makes these puzzles so appealing is how you always seem to be on the verge of solving them. The precision metal casting becomes apparent as you try to separate the parts of each one to solve it. They are just sooo close to coming apart you will be cringing with delight. Solutions are NOT included... but maybe if you call us and ask us nicely we'll give you a hint... that is as soon as we solve ours. We're offering four different difficulty levels of the Fiendish Japanese Pocket Puzzles. We would rate level 3 as "solvable if you fiddle with it long enough". While level 6 is "insanely hard and requires some serious thought". If you solve one of the level 6 puzzles snap a photo and e-mail it to us... we'll certainly bow to your superhuman puzzle solving prowess.

Hello My Name Is Inigo Montoya Hoodie
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. Just this once. 80% cotton / 20% polyester black hoodie (100% ring spun cotton outside) with front zipper and side pockets. White and red "Hello my name is..." sticker over the chest and Inigo Montoya's full spiel wedged in there.

2+2=5
Those who spend their lives dwelling in the abstract are well aware of this maxim. If one is convinced that 2 + 2 = 5, then that is proof alone. Are we right? Probably not. Or is this some sort of Gestalt 'whole greater than the sum of its parts' equation designed by motivational speakers for a 'conceptual breakthrough?' Probably not. Is it a song by Radiohead? Yes, this much we can establish. "Well, now I know where all the departed quantities went to -- the right-hand side of this equation." -- Bishop Berkeley 100% Cotton heavyweight black tshirt with the mathematical equation '2 + 2 = 5' written in a chalkboard font.

Unless you've recently wired up your own M.A.M.E cabinet or added a modchip to your Xbox, chances are good that your voltmeter and ammeter are still hiding in the garage at your parents house from your high school physics days.

LEGO Minifigures
Some of the best things in life come in blind packages. We're talking about great geeky things like collectible card games and Dungeons & Dragons miniatures, of course. Who hasn't crinkled a packet of cards wondering if it contained that ultra rare? Or incurred the wrath of your Friendly Local Gaming Store management by shaking box after box of miniatures because you were SURE you knew what a dracolich sounded like? No, no, that particular thunk is the Mountain Troll. Or is it? We can't resist a mystery. It's Schrodinger's collectible: you'll never really know what's inside the packet of cards or box of minis until you open it up. LEGO groks our love of the mystery. Each mini figure comes in a sealed mystery bag so you never know which one you are going to get! Also, each mini figure comes with their own accessory, display stand and collection leaflet. This collection is for a limited time only. Once they are sold out, we can't get anymore. Expand your LEGO collection! Currently Available Series 6 Classic Alien, Highland Battler, Sleepyhead, Lady Liberty, Bandit, Flamenco Dancer, Clockwork Robot, Minotaur, Leprechaun, Roman Solider, Surgeon, Skater Girl, Intergalactic Girl, Butcher, Mechanic, and Genie. Product Specifications For Ages 5 and Up WARNING: Small Parts - Not for children under 3 yrs. For a limited time only Each bag contains one random-packed minifig Random packed means you have a 1 in 16 chance of getting any particular figure For liberal arts school graduates: Ordering 16 will not "guarantee" you get all 16 figures. LEGO Minifigures FAQ You say these are "Random Packed". What does that mean? It means you can't choose which one of the assortment you receive. If you buy one or more units of this product you will get a random selection of the figures shown. What if I buy five? Will I get five different models? Maybe. Maybe not. It is unlikely, but all five may be the same. They are random. I want a specific one now! Why can't you dig around in a box somewhere, find the one I want and mail it to me? Two reasons: 1. Our Robotic Warehouse Monkeys don't have the ability to discern the difference between various minifigures. They use their mechanical claw hands to reach into a box and pull some items for your order. You get what you get. 2. The packaging on these toys makes it hard from the outside to tell what figure they contain. We would have to open the sealed package and hunt for specific minifigures. This is not really feasible.

One thing they can both agree on, however, is that the only drink worth drinking is Cupcake Juice (it's the real reason why cupcakes are called fairy cakes in some locals).

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.

Girls Electronic Rock Guitar Shirt
Here at ThinkGeek we were just wishing for a fully playable guitar built into a t-shirt when along came the Pixie of ROCK... she wailed with face melting guitar solo and *POOF* there it was in our hands...The Electronic Rock Guitar Shirt. We turned on the mini amp, cranked the volume to 11 and started to rock. As the Pixie explained, the Electronic Guitar Shirt is incredibly easy to play because each button on the neck is a major chord. She went on to mention how you can play dozens of classic rock songs with very little skill. However she warned us never to use the Guitar Shirt for evil, lest we are prepared to summon the Demon of Rock and duel to the death for musical supremacy. Now you can purchase one of these fine Electronic Rock Guitar Shirts and get a little wearable ROCK magic for yourself. The Electronic Guitar Shirt is not a toy that plays pre-canned musical riffs, it is a real musical instrument that allows you to play your favorite songs and sound great doing it.

Tony Stark Light up LED Iron Man Shirt
This may look like a standard t-shirt, but it's actually the Iron Man Mark IX suit. This latest version is much lighter than all previous versions, featuring a flexible interior with knitted cotton exterior. Unlike the Extremis version, the movement with your body does not require you to inject carbon nanotubes into your brain. The chest-mounted uni-beam is powered by photons, which it collects and then disperses when the wearer enters a dark area. For all body parts covered by the Mark IX's new form factor, the suit provides protection from adverse weather conditions, UV rays, and temperature extremes. It is designed for up to two days of use inside Earth's atmosphere, although after the first 12 hours of use its effectiveness is reduced. After 24 hours, it begins to act as a repulsor. The Iron Man Arc Reactor Shirt has three components: the t-shirt, a light panel with a long cable, and a battery box. When fresh batteries are in the battery box and the unit is switched on, the Arc Reactor shines brightly. So this particular arc reactor isn't going to keep shrapnel from working its way into your heart or power your repulsor beams. What do you expect for under $30? A shirt that glows? That, we can provide. Product Specifications Officially licensed Marvel collectible Black cotton t-shirt containing a light-up Arc Reactor Looks like a standard t-shirt, but it's actually the Iron Man Mark IX suit Flexible interior with knitted cotton exterior Provides protection from adverse weather, UV rays, and temperature extremes With fresh batteries in the battery box, Arc Reactor will glow when switched on Will not prevent shrapnel from reaching your heart Machine washable (all electrical components can be removed from the shirt) Requires 3 AAA batteries (not included) Washing Instructions: All electronic devices and accessories must be removed before washing the shirt. To remove electronic components: 1. Detach cable from battery box. 2. Carefully peel off the hook & loop attached light panel. 3. Remove the light panel along with its cable from the shirt. Machine wash in warm water with like colors and tumble dry on low heat.

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.

Tyvek Mighty Wallets
In the future, money will be merely bits flying through the ether - digital packets of purchasing potential. Paying for things will be just a matter of blinking and nodding. Until that day comes, however, we still have to carry around hunks of plastic and colorful bits of paper. While this is less than ideal, you can at least do so with maximum geek-factor, and infinite cool. Made from tough Tyvek, the fibrous and nearly indestructible material FedEx packets are made from, these wallets have the appearance of paper, but with the strength of a superhero. Several styles to choose from - yours can look like a printout from a venerable 9-pin dot-matrix, blueprints from a starship, or include iconic superhero styles. These wallets are folded origami style, into an incredibly strong, very functional, and totally geeky tri-fold wallet. It's sleek, smooth, and instantly identifiable. Heads will turn when you, in dramatic fashion, pull out your Dot Matrix, or Batman wallet and announce proudly to the waiter, "I got this." Of course you do. Each wallet is blue and white, 3 3/8 inches wide by 10 inches long, open. It sports 2 generous card slots for your credit cards, gym membership card, driver's license, or video-game rental cards, plenty of room for cash and receipts and even hides a secret pocket on the side! Note: Extremely clever monkeys out there may notice that the 3000 numbers printed on the suface of the Dot Matrix style wallet aren't really all that random, but bear a striking resemblance to a certain number pattern.

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. Please Note: You'll need to supply your own vase/jar, water decorations (rocks, etc), water, and oil. H2O Instant Water Candle Kit Just add water, cooking oil, and a jar (or vase) to make a beautifully unique candle. Fire not included, either. Non toxic, but that doesn't mean you should drink it. Colors: Blue, Green, and Red. Includes: 3 floaters, 18 wicks, and 20g (0.71oz) of coloring). Package Dimensions: approx. 2.75" x 5.5" x 0.75"

Hozuki LED Candle Lantern
When technology and beauty meet, magic happens. And when that merger is coupled with designs based on nature, true art is formed. We believe this has happened with the Hozuki LED Candle Lantern, and we think you will too. Based on the hozuki plant - the same plant sometimes called Japanese or Chinese Lantern plant due to its papery fruit - this lantern adapts the beloved paper lantern feel into a wonderful, futuristic light. So what else is so special about it? Read on, and enjoy the beauty of nature and technology's glorious love child. 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. With a click of the button the light can easily be dimmed to one of 3 different settings. Or press the button twice, and enter "candle mode" - also available in all 3 brightness settings. In "candle mode" the light will flicker like a candle. Blowing on the lantern will cause the light to flicker more, and if you blow too hard you can blow it out (but don't worry, it will light back up after a few seconds). The Hozuki LED Candle Lantern is ready to brighten your life - both literally and figuratively.

Android Vinyl Action Figure
We're not going to choose sides in the war of the smart phones. Why? Because when technology competes against itself there are only two possible outcomes: 1. Said technology will improve and evolve rapidly in awesome and fun ways -or- 2. Terminators will be created that will destroy us all. We risk number two to gain number one (and if that was a potty joke, it would be gross). And what does that have to do with the Android Vinyl Action Figure? We thought you'd tell us! Each Android Vinyl Action Figure is 3.25" inches of green vinyl fun. Its arms move for dancing action, and its head rotates for looking off into the future and disagreeing with you and stuff. Maybe it's just us, but the simple design of the Android android is just beautiful. And that's why we love having this Android Vinyl Action Figure to play with. Get a bunch, and you could have your own Android Vinyl Action Figure army - an army capable of beating up any orange, banana, or apple that stands in its way.

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.

Ora Metal Mathematic Sculptures
Most mathematicians and role-playing gamers recognize the platonic solids - 3 dimensional convex geometric shapes made from simple regularly sided 2D shapes - tetrahedral pyramids, hexahedral cubes, diamond octahedrons, and so on. 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

Trip Glasses
Way back in the year 1969 two significant events occurred involving space exploration. One was the Apollo XI moon landing (outer space) and the other was the three day Woodstock Music Festival (inner space). Both of these important events left a historical mark and set the stage for future exploration. With the development of new technologies, our ability to explore outer and inner space has expanded and become more accessible. These new Trip Glasses bring a bit of the Woodstock era to the modern day. They allow you to safely meditate, hallucinate, trip out and generally relax with your eyes gently closed.

Tag Beer Glass
So our manufacturer calls this a pilsner, but our resident beer geek monkeys say this is a glass designed for the perfect Weizen beer, aka a wheat beer glass. That tapering at the top allows for focus of the aroma that you don't get in your traditional pilsner glass. But, of course, the most important part of this glass is the embiggening that allows for expression of the head and capture of the carbonation. It's 23 oz. of goodness, which allows for a 1/2 liter of beer, plus space for head, which we have explicitly marked out for your convenience. So your head probably won't end exactly where we printed the close head tag. It's gonna depend on your skills, your tastes, and whether or not you possess a beer-pouring robot. Something you may want to put on your wish list. 23 oz. glass with printed at its widest spot. This glass is just short of 9 inches, allowing for the observation of clouds of wheat proteins as they swirl around in your glass. Warning: If you put the rice water that is Budweiser or Miller Lite into this glass, we cannot be held liable for your health care costs when you are overcome by an angry army of beer-pouring robots. (What? You didn't think they JUST poured the perfect beer, did you?)

Pivot Power Power Strip
Somewhere, in the grand history of electronic stuff, nobody bothered to set a standard for the size and shape of plugs and adapters. Thus, we have big square ones, long rectangular ones, semi-round ones, even oddly geometric ones. And trying to plug them all into one surge protector is like playing Tetris in a game with no long pieces. Pivot Power made us squeal with nerdly glee. With six adjustable outlets, we can pivot this surge protector in such a way that we can actually use all six outlets. Every plug fits into every outlet. And if that wasn't cool enough, you can also use Pivot Power's ... powers to wrap around furniture or squeeze a surge protector into hard to reach places. (The six foot long cord helps with that too!) With 672 joules of rock-solid protection, Pivot Power is poised to be our new favorite surge protector - why not give it a shot and see if you agree? Product Specifications Adjustable power strip that holds large adapters in every outlet Six adjustable outlets: every kind of plug fits into every outlet No more unusable outlets! Just pivot and fit it! 672 Joules of rock-solid protection Flexible shape pivots around furniture and hard to reach places Crazy reach: Six feet of cord with a flat head plug Conforms to UL Std No. 1363, Certified to CSA Std C22.2 No. 21

Horn Stand for iPhone
We've found ourselves using "old school" to describe the things we enjoyed roughly between 1965-1985. When we saw the Bone Horn Stand, we were stumped. What do you call something that throws it all the way back to the phonographs of the 1870s? Charming is the first word that comes to mind. Vintage, too. And our CS monkey Jimmy can't help but think about marching band when he sees it. Slide the Horn Stand on to your iPhone 4/4S and enjoy an additional 13 decibels of sound pressure. It requires no power from your phone's battery! The Bone Horn Stand is good, wholesome, old-fashioned acoustical science. Once you have it secured to your phone, you can use it to prop your iPhone into a vertical or horizontal viewing position and fire up your favorite music app. Product Specifications Phonograph-style stand & amplifier for iPhone Compatible with the iPhone 4 or 4S Adds 13 decibels of sound pressure Requires no power from your phone's battery Full of old-fashioned acoustical science Will stand in the vertical or horizontal position Great gift for music geeks, marching band geeks, or antique geeks

Glow in the Dark Zombie Mug
We have a thing against light here at ThinkGeek World Domination HQ. The overhead fluorescent lighting in our office only gets turned on when one of two things happen: 1) Officials from the mothership are visiting. (We're extra sure to wear pants those days, too.) 2) The cleaning crew for the office park has arrived and needs to SEE the dust in order to clean it. Other than that, we'll take our darkness, illuminated only by the glow of our monitors and maybe some LED toys. If you're someone who enjoys the darkness like we do, or leaves for work at a time we refer to as the buttcrack of dawn, you may just need a glow-in-the-dark mug! Also excellent for people who may or may not be zombies. (We won't blow your cover. Just don't eat us, okay?)

Zippo Hand Warmer
Being cold sucks. Sure, it's fun for the first few seconds. "Wow!" you exclaim, taking a deep breath. "It sure is BRISK out here!"

Unzipped Glass Snack Bag
Geeks love candy, sad but true. Sugar is brain fuel, and we have such very very large brains. In fact, it is said that Neanderthal man had an even larger brain than homo sapiens. They were larger, stronger, and potentially smarter than their evolutionary more successful peers. So why did they die off? It is said that Neanderthals hunted by ambush. Hiding behind trees to catch their prey unprepared. They weren't fast creatures, but they were fiercely strong, and could overpower their quarry if they could catch them. However, as the Earth warmed, and forests made way to grasslands, trappable prey became scarce. Neanderthal's larger build and dense musculature meant their dietary requirements were about 10% higher than homo sapiens. They were done in by their own largess. So don't get caught unprepared for a sudden change in the environment. Make sure you've got some calories close at hand. Candy's great for that purpose - in fact, if you can get candy coated legume, Peanut M&Ms for example, you can get a shot of protein at the same time. Look at you! All prepared to out-evolve your contemporaries! As long as you've got a bag full of survival fuel, you may as well make that a glass bag. This "bag" is, in fact, borosilicate glass - the same kind of glass chemists use when mixing their witch's brews. It's made to look like one of those zip-sealing bags, forcing your friends and family to give a quick double-take when they see it. They think it's a plastic bag, but it's glass! That double-take is all the time you need to quickly snatch up a fistful of carbohydrates. It's your genes that will survive, not theirs.

DIY - I Love You Bean
People often talk about the "language of love" and the "hidden language and meaning of flowers and plants." Well the time has come to cram these two languages into one easy-to-grow, polyglot plant. We give you, the I Love You Bean. It's very simple to show folks you love them with this plant. Read on, and find out why. You see, the I Love You Bean is just about the best gift you can give someone. When you do, tell them they only need to add water, sunlight, and love - just like the love your two hearts. Mushy, but effective. But here comes the best part: once the bean has sprouted and grown a little, your special friend will see the words "I Love You" written on the bean. And you will say it got there by the power of your love. You will score all sorts of romantic brownie points, and your energy expense for those points will be very minimal. You just have to purchase one (or more - you never know) of these I Love You Beans and let the love grow!

Linux
We'll use the more than apt description of Linux from ESR's Jargon File: Linux /lee'nuhks/ or /li'nuks/, not /li:'nuhks/ n. The free Unix workalike created by Linus Torvalds and friends starting about 1991. The pronunciation /li'nuhks/ is preferred because the name `Linus' has an /ee/ sound in Swedish (Linus's family is part of Finland's 6% ethnic-Swedish minority) and Linus considers English short /i/ to be closer to /ee/ than English long /i:/. This may be the most remarkable hacker project in history -- an entire clone of Unix for 386, 486 and Pentium micros, distributed for free with sources over the net (ports to Alpha and Sparc and many other machines are also in use). Linux is what GNU aimed to be, and it relies on the GNU toolset. But the Free Software Foundation didn't produce the kernel to go with that toolset until 1999, which was too late. Other, similar efforts like FreeBSD and NetBSD have been technically successful but never caught fire the way Linux has; as this is written in 2001, Linux is seriously challenging Microsoft's OS dominance. It has already captured 31% of the Internet-server market and 25% of general business servers.

Pi by Numbers Babydoll
What is Pi? Some might define it as the ratio of a circle's circumference divided by its diameter. Others might think it's an irrational number that's impossible to know completely. Still others might think it's a mystical, transcendental, almighty number that will only finally be revealed when society as a whole puts on a bunch of purple felt jump suits and hitches a ride on a nearby comet. Those people aren't reading this description though. They are browsing the howtothinklikeaflower.com website. But we digress... We here at ThinkGeek like to think of Pi as a way to help you come up with creative reasons to spend your hard earned cash on a T-shirt. Quick question. When is Pi day? March 14th of course. Think about that for a second. Now, while still mesmerized, drop this shirt into your shopping cart. Navy blue 100% cotton babydoll tshirt. Stretchy and fitted, not baggy like the guys' stuff! Pi symbol printed on the front in white. The first 4493 digits of Pi were used to construct the Pi symbol itself. That's a whole lot of Pi. Enough for everybody to share so don't get greedy on us now. A big shout out from ThinkGeek goes to Archimedes way back in the B.C. for finally giving us a good approximation of Pi, and doing so without the benefit of modern trigonometry.

Sparkle Bacon
We here at TG World Domination HQ love us some bacon. Well, except for the vegetarians. (Honestly, most of them love it and yet manage to restrain themselves. We don't know how they do it.) The Pork Checkoff (which is a national pork lobbying organization but makes us imagine Pigs in Space talking about nuclear wessels) put out a document that has all sorts of statistics - a pie chart with a blue wedge indicating bacon cheeseburgers accounted for 13% of restaurant pork eatings in 2009, one that shows that bacon was 18.2% of US in-home pork consumption in 2009 (topped only by ham and sausage), a bar graph showing how "menued pork items" have grown over the past 10 years. Besides making verbs out of nouns and nouns out of verbs, they provide us with neat numbers to sink our teeth into. Then we got to the "Estimated Daily U.S. Slaughter Capacity" table, which made us cringe. According to the USDA Foreign Agricultural Service's 2009 data, your average American eats a little over 64 lbs. of pork a year. For those of us who want to stay omnivores, it's better not to think about where our 64 lbs. comes from. Which is why there's sparkle bacon. Sparkle bacon can't come from an animal! Animals don't sparkle. Sparkling means it's magical. Magical bacon. Three strips of bacon coated in glitter on a black babydoll (fitted) t-shirt.

Wooden Catapult and Trebuchet Kits
In the days before gunpowder (at least in the west), folks had to find new and intriguing ways to throw death and destruction at each other. They started by throwing rocks, then progressed to hurling giant stones, and then to flinging boulders. The evolution of the machines used to accomplish this hurling is as intriguing as the things hurled. Many times trash and debris were lobbed over castle walls to rain down upon unsuspecting masses or invading armies. These kits let you bring back all the fun of flinging. Each one can assemble in just a few hours, and provides a fantastic scale model of an actual war weapon of yore. The catapult is perfect for chucking balls of paper and other small objects over cubicle walls. The trebuchet is better for long range targets (like the water cooler or networked printer). And, all you need to put them together are some strong fingers (or pliers), a cutting tool, and glue (not included). Both kits are perfect for showing your love of retro weaponry. Please Note: Though these kits are for educational purposes, they are functional. Care should be taken when constructing and using them. Don't use anything living as a target or projectile. Because kits must be glued together, opened kits are non-returnable.

Doctor Who Talking Plush
The Doctor's made several trips to parallel universes over his 900+ years, including one in which the Roman Empire got tired of conquering just Earth and started expanding to other planets and universes. We'd like to hope there's a parallel universe out there where the Daleks are snuggly and adorable and "EXTERMINATE" means "EXTERMINATE THE UNHAPPINESS - WITH HUGS." Surely, if such a universe existed, the Doctor would fly there in his overstuffed huggable TARDIS and meet these Dalek for tea, Jelly Babies, and Jammy Dodgers. These plush are the first in a series of officially licensed Doctor Who plush for the new series. They are all about 9" tall and pleasantly overstuffed, especially the TARDIS (since there's so much on the inside, you know!). Squeeze the TARDIS and you'll hear its signature flight sounds as the light on top flashes. The Daleks (in red and blue) will tell you that you are their enemy and they want to exterminate you, but remember, in the parallel universe, it just means they'd fancy a snuggle.

They wore all black to remain invisible. They stepped softly to remain silent. They bathed frequently to remove all body odor so that no one could even smell them coming.

Mini Cupcake Factory
Cupcakes appeal to the geek because they're entirely made out of cake! Plus, they're teeny and cute, and, for some reason, things that are miniaturized make some of the geek girls here in the office squee with delight! One only has to look at adorable pictures of miniature horses to know the truth of this. So, in the epic battle of cake vs. cupcake, the cupcake has one point for its teenyness, if that's even a word. Another advantage the cupcake has is, due to its size, it has an extremely high crust-to-cake ratio. You know, that outer layer of extra caramelized batter that's soaked up some of the oil and has a slight give to the crumb? Nummy. Also, again - size related, the cupcake cooks in a mere 5 minutes time. So, if you include the time spent mixing and heating the cupcake pan, you're only 10 minutes away from craving to nomming delicious hot cupcakes! ThinkGeek knows you love cupcakes - mostly because we love cupcakes. Consequently, when we found this electric mini cupcake pan, we knocked over little old ladies to get at them. Each one of these little pans heats up in minutes, and cooks 7 cupcakes at a time in 5 short minutes. So you can go from craving to mixing to eating hot delicious cupcakes in less time than it takes to make five 2-minute eggs. Maybe our math is wrong? Apropos of nothing: in the UK, they're called "fairy cakes." Unfortunately for our british friends, though, this little guy only has a US 110v plug. Which is fine, really. More for us!

Galaxy Wand Green Laser Pointer
It's no secret that we monkeys love lasers. Lasers are pretty darn cool in our opinion, and really, whose opinion do you value more than ours? (We'll give you a moment to think...) Exactly. We thought so. Even though lasers have become widely available and pretty inexpensive, we're still all about lasers. They're just fascinating. Just about every application of lasers we can think of gets our stamp of approval. Laser light shows, DVD players, laser surgery, and laser-based research are all good in our book. This laser projects a green pattern that is very reminiscent of a star field. Just twist the front cap and the pattern changes from lightly speckled to a dense field of stars. So pretty... shiny... come to think of it, how close are monkeys to cats, DNA-wise?

Rubber Bandit Rubber Band Shooting Pen
Mankind moved a step forward to the future and a step away from the past when writing was developed. Now ideas could be preserved for all time. Another leap forward in our collective evolution was when the first wiseass realized that rubber bands could be stretched and shot at coworkers. Such fun. The time has come, children, to combine these two great leaps of development into one awesome little toy. The Rubber Bandit Rubber Band Shooting Pen is just that toy. The design of the Rubber Bandit Rubber Band Shooting Pen is both simple and genius. Stretch a rubber band between two little nibs (one near the top and one on the part you click to get the pen to write) and your Pen is armed and dangerous. Just point, click, and fire. And as a bonus, the Rubber Bandit Rubber Band Shooting Pen actually works as a pen. That way, no one will know you're packing heat. Spy-tacular! Rubber Bandit Rubber Band Shooting Rubber bands stretch between two points. Click the pen out and the rubber band shoots off. Can be used with any rubber bands that fit on the pen. Pen actually writes. Penmanship, however, is up to your skills. Firing distance is variable based on the rubber band's specific elasticity. Back of package folds to create a stand-up target. Includes: Rubber Bandit pen, 6 ballistic-ready rubber bands. Ink Color: Black. Dimensions: approx. 6.25" long.

36 Cube - World's Most Challenging Puzzle
ASTRA Best Toy for Kids List - 2009 Parents' Choice Gold Award - 2009 iParenting Media Awards Best Products of 2009 Our copywriter monkey will admit she both loves and hates puzzles. She enjoys figuring things out and the vast sense of accomplishment when a puzzle is defeated, but if she can't figure something out she'll throw a mental tantrum and lose sleep for weeks. Srsly, she'll have dreams about the puzzle and come in to work looking like a pink-haired zombie. If you are like her, the 36 Cube is not for you. You will probably lose sleep, friends, family, your job, and your house in the attempt to figure it out. Now that you've had the warning, read on... The 36 Cube is a 3D sudoku puzzle that consists of a gray base that looks like a city skyline and 36 colored towers. The towers come in six different colors and six different heights. Your mission - should you accept it - is to place all the towers onto the base and form a level cube with each of the six colors appearing once and only once in each row and column. It seems simple until you get 34 of the 36 towers placed and then realize you've done something wrong and have to start all over again. What's even more unnerving - you can't solve this puzzle by writing a computer program to do the logic for you. You'll have to rely on your own brain, nerds. Good luck.

Settlers of Catan
The mere mention of German board games results in the unmistakable sound of nerd joy. Let's face it, those Germans have board gaming down to a science. Their games have more player interaction, they tend to de-emphasize direct conflict or knocking people out of the game (which isn't fun for those who lose), and are usually playable in a shorter amount of time. Settlers of Catan is one of the longer ones, but trust us when we say it is totally freakin' worth it and we're revoking your geek card if you die without having played it at least once. Settlers is a game of luck and strategy. You are settlers to a new island and your goal is to develop it by building roads, settlements, and cities. Be the person who controls most of the island by the end and you're the winner. Seems easy, except you'll realize that you may not have all of the resources - brick, lumber, wool, grain, and ore - that you need and you'll have to bargain and barter with other players to get them. The game dynamics are simple enough for children to learn, but the strategy involved is what keeps adults coming back to Catan again and again. Settlers of Catan has won multiple board game awards and is popular among gamers and non-gamers alike. And sure, you may play the Xbox Live Arcade version, but do yourself a favor and get the real deal. Nothing beats sitting around the table with friends and family asking them if they have wood for sheep.

Leather Statement Cuff
Jewelry is very specific to an individual. Certain people are drawn to certain things. We really like the simplicity of these cuffs, though. Metal and leather. That's it. They're hand-crafted in the US. They have a sort of steampunk aesthetic. And when we saw our quotation options, we knew we had to have them. Choose either e.e. cummings: It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are. (with an image of a tree) or Lewis Carroll (attributed to Alice in Wonderland): Sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast. Tolkien: Not all who wander are lost. (with an image of a swallow, the popular paraphrase from the LoTR poem "All that is gold does not glitter") 8 3/4" long, 1 5/8" wide dark chestnut leather band. Note that this is a softer, malleable leather, not the hard stuff you usually find on cuff bracelets.It fastens using holes punched on one end which slip over two pairs of riveted posts on the other. Depending on how you fasten it, it fits a 7 1/4" (2 outermost holes + 2 outermost posts), 6 1/2" (all 4 holes and posts), or 6" (2 innermost holes + 2 innermost posts) wrist. The plates with the statements on them are cast in lead-free metal and then given an antique brass finish. They attach to the bracelet using brass hooks. Our crafty geek girls will want to know you can add other things on to the hooks, such as beads or charms, to make your statement cuff truly unique, like you. Product features 8 3/4" long, 1 5/8" wide dark chestnut leather band. Statements cast in lead-free metal. Adjusts to fit a 7 1/4" (2 outermost holes + 2 outermost posts), 6 1/2" (all 4 holes and posts), or 6" (2 innermost holes + 2 innermost posts) wrist.

Toddler Jetpack
Kids. Where DO they get all that energy from? Even if you keep them off of sugar and caffeine they can be bouncing off the walls one minute and dead to the world the next. We think it's a fuel supply issue. A jetpack that a toddler could heft probably couldn't have that much liquid propellant in it. So they burn it all off and then are suddenly down for the count. Just be glad they don't have a backup supply. Black 100% cotton toddler tee has a jetpack printed on the back. Note: Please reference the table below to choose a size.

The Gun Mug
Most mornings, caffeine is required before your brain properly engages. Attempting to startle or aggravate a geek before he's had his morning jolt is asking for a world of hurt. Geeks can be downright snippy before they've had a chance to properly wake up. Extreme care must be taken in these circumstances. Every morning, without fail, there's that worthless jerk in the office that's been awake with the sun, and, with extreme perkiness, tries to engage you in mindless banter. Your synapses fire just enough to remind you that, indeed, you hate that guy. Relying entirely on your lizard brain to work the controls on the coffee dispenser, you pour a piping hot cup-o-joe into your Gun Mug. Seeing the handle and the trigger-grip, said jerk gets the message quickly and backs the hell off. Nobody wants to mess with a geek with a gun. Even if that gun is only loaded with coffee. Features Black ceramic coffee mug with pistol grip Looks bad-ass in your hand Holds 8 ounces of your favorite hot beverage Five by three by four inches Gun mug safety is no joke.

Atari Wall Decals
Millions of years ago, if a geek wanted to play videogames, he had to take a pocketful of quarters to the mall where darkened rooms filled with 6-foot-tall cabinets bleeped and blooped in glowing 8-bit goodness. Before we measured the quality of our games in voxels, we had to use our imaginations and believe that jagged white lines were massive hurtling asteroids, and that a triangle was your intrepid starship attempting to navigate the void. We fantasized that a simple white line was Bjorn Borg, and that a single pixel of light was a tennis ball being smashed at Jimmy Connors' racket, or that shooting the head of a centipede would turn it in into a mushroom. The Elder Gods of the Internet call that era back in the day. It was a day of wonder - where bits were downloaded at a blistering three-hundred per second, hard-drives were the size of small Eastern-European cars, and digital watches were a pretty neat idea. The Elder Gods look upon those days fondly, and look for ways to remind themselves of those heady days when you could hack a telephone with a cereal box whistle. So, in an effort to bring a little bit of the past into the present day, these vinyl decals were created to turn any wall into a gigantic representation of the classic Atari videogames Asteroids, Centipede or Pong. Just peel and stick and you can relive those ancient and halcyon days of whooping flying saucers, spinning potentiometers as controllers, and falling fleas that fart fungus.

The Legend of Zelda Mints
Ever since he set out on that very first battery-backed-up, golden-cartridge quest, Link has always had one thing on his mind: kissing Princess Zelda. Sure he wanted to save the world and explore dungeons and blah de blah. No, really, he couldn't care less about all that junk. He wanted some Zelda smooches, plain and simple. And Link was always prepared. What looked like a shield was, in fact, a giant container of breath mints. Celebrate Link's olfactory obsession with The Legend of Zelda Mints. Each beautiful tin of The Legend of Zelda Mints is chock full of pepperminty goodness. Over 100 tiny mints are waiting in this little Hylian Shield tin. Do they taste good? We answer that question with another question: Does Link have pointy ears? (The answer to both, dear reader, is yes.) So, get some The Legend of Zelda Mints today, and freshen that breath.

Hydrodynamic Building Set
Water is everywhere. It covers 71% of the Earth's surface and composes about 112% of the human body. Gaining control over water would be an awesome super power, but for now we are stuck with using science to master water. Good thing someone invented this Hydrodynamic Building Set. It makes science fun again. But this kit isn't a simple connect the dots - you have to do some thinking! Why? Read on! The instruction manual shows you how the girders connect, how to build the various tanks, and some rendered images of completed projects - but not step-by-step. Your entire model gets built up from the bottom of the carrying case, which acts as the water reservoir and also has a special footing to be the structure's foundation. Level by level, you build your support frame and add your tanks. Then connect all the tubes, add in the valves, and turn on the electric pump. If you've done it right, you'll have an awesome construction everyone will marvel at (a little food coloring helps). Fail and you're all wet - quite probably literally. And Kids: Build something with this kit for a Science Fair Project and you are guaranteed to win (this guarantee not guaranteed)!

There are how-to guides out there that teach you how to deter thieves by uglifying your digital camera to make it look like an old film camera. But you can't really ugly up an iPad and make it look like something it's not. Sure, you can put it in a notepad-style case, but thieves know to look for those.

It's a fully functional, protective iPad case made of impact resistant ABS plastic and molded to look exactly like an Etch-a-Sketch. Know why? It's made in the same factory that makes the original Etch-a-Sketch toy. You can even run the Etch-a-Sketch app while using your iPad in its Etch-a-Sketch case, which is so much awesome that our heads might explode.

Ears and Whiskers Babydoll
Geeks tend to be late for things. Our theory is that it's because we are some of the few who truly comprehend the implications of the relativity of space and time. That, plus, when we're not properly caffeinated, naps are very tempting. So we understand the poor White Rabbit from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland having a bit of a freak out. When we're late to events, we end up with extra action items or get stuck with the Diet Coke that nobody ordered. The White Rabbit, however, is late for something far more important than a project status meeting or lunch. So it's okay if he figuratively loses his head a bit in this situation; it's better than the alternative - literally losing his head. It's a distinct possibility in his world.

Periodic Beer Glass
We're going to bet that you are currently not drinking beer because you're at work, and unlike ThinkGeek World Domination HQ (which has a Beer Fairy), casual imbibing is frowned upon in your office. There, there. It's going to be okay. You know, we have job openings. Just sayin'. You know what makes us feel better? Learnin' stuff. So let's get to it. Despite what this glass suggests, your beer should not contain either beryllium or erbium. If it does, you need to seriously consider switching to another brewer. Carlsberg Brewery was the location of Søren Sorensen's work on the pH scale. "Skunked" beer is more properly termed "light-struck." When UV light hits beer, it kicks off a chemical reaction, breaking down the isohumulones and creating 3-methyl-2-butene-1-thiol. It's an organosulfur compound, the same thing a skunk sprays. Good for scaring off predators. Bad for beer. Beryllium and Erbium printed with their atomic properties in a 16 oz. pint glass.

It's one of the most triumphant scientific results in history. "Science / It works, bitches." on the front with the COBE graph on the back in white on a forest green 100% cotton t-shirt.

Martin fanboy we know, and he's been drooling all over this calendar ever since he first laid eyes on it, which frankly, is making it difficult for Copywriter monkey to do her job. The calendar is... a little moist. (We promise we'll send you a dry one.) While the 2011 calendar featured the castles of Westeros, the 2012 calendar focuses on the people you know and love (or love to hate!) from the A Song of Ice and Fire series. Rendered in brilliantly imaginative detail by acclaimed artist John Picacio, these images bring the people of Westeros to life, and will remind fans of why George R.R. Martin's novels stand as a masterpiece of modern fantasy. Product Specifications 2012 calendar based on A Song of Ice & Fire novels Features the characters you know and love (or love to hate) The people of George R.R.

Only You Can Prevent the Zombie Apocalypse
We live in dangerous times. There are all sorts of dangers - biological, chemical, social. If one stupid human makes one stupid mistake, we could have the apocalypse on our hands in mere days. If you miss the signs, if you have your head in the sand, if you just can't bring yourself to shoot Grandma when she's clearly infected with the virus, then YOU have caused the modern day forest fire that is the zombie apocalypse. Be prepared, zombie watchers. The time will come and you will be responsible for saving or damning the world. Zombey the bear admonishes "Only you can prevent the zombie apocalypse" on a 100% cotton, cedar t-shirt.

Hollow Spy Coins
These days spy tools have all gone high tech... don't get us wrong, it's pretty cool to packet sniff someone's network to ferret out secrets, but it just doesn't have the same spy flavor as using a tiny camera to take covert photos for later conversion to microfilm. That's why we love these retro style Hollow Spy Coins. Each coin is precision hand milled to create a secret compartment inside. Once closed, it's virtually impossible to distinguish these spy coins from a regular coin. Store your secrets then pass it off to your undercover contact as pocket change... no one will be the wiser. The half dollar is even capable of storing a micro SD card. Just think, gigs of data in a coin... 007 would be so jealous.

USB LED Desktop Lamp
How do we love LEDs, let us count the ways! Srsly, do a search for LED in that box on the upper left and you'll come up with dozens of products, everything from umbrellas to home decor to a ball for your dog to fetch in the dark.

Inevitable Betrayal
Just like British actors in American film, poor theropods always end up playing the bad guys. At the beginning of the pilot for Firefly (well, okay, after the beginning beginning), Wash has those plastic dinosaurs, one of which is a Tyrannosaurus or an Allosaurus. Either way, it's a theropod that's about to be vilified. Let's face it. Whenever you have two plastic dinosaurs together, you know it's gonna end with one of them being eaten, so if you've got a carnivore and an herbivore, you know who has the upper ... er... appendage. Especially since the Stegosaurus is all, "Ehn. Ehn. I gots only orthal movements in mah jaw. Ehn." We just hope the Stegosaurus got to use the thagomizer (Gary Larson should get to name all these things) before its untimely end. A speech bubble that reads "Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal" hangs over two cream-colored dinosaurs under a floating Serenity logo on a chocolate brown 100% cotton shirt.

Katinja Babydoll
Katinja, we're briefed in the dossier, is the leader of this band of merry ninjas which includes a panda, a rabbit, a monkey, a binturong (warning: video contains graphic cuteness), and a rogue gumball machine. Wait. How does a gumball machine sneak up on anyone? Okay. Obviously these are questions we should not ask or we might have one fewer of those nine lives, if you know what we mean. Katinja (a ninja cat) with crossed ninjato graces the front of this charcoal grey babydoll (fitted) shirt. Plus, there's a really cute iPhone wallpaper of this same image available for download.

Sake-Bito (I Love Alcohol) v2.0
Here's another wacky kanji t-shirt featuring beautiful characters penned with a traditional writing brush (fude pen). A parody of famous shima-bito (Island Person) designs from Okinawa, this shirt proudly proclaims you as a sake-bito, literally a "person of sake" or someone who loves to drink all forms of alcohol. (Sake, prononced sah-KAY, can refer to normal rice wine as well as all other forms of alcohol.) This black, 100% cotton t-shirt declares you a Sake-Bito on the front chest in white. A traditional sake bottle in red and white adorns the back neck. The right sleeve has a small note that points out the shirt's from J-List.

Doctor Who Master's Pocket Watch
When we think of pocket watches, we often think of old relics carried by old men. And we suppose that Time Lords are "old men" in the sense that they are 900+ years old. When a Time Lord wants to hide, all he need do is use the Chameleon Arch and store his memories and biology in a fob watch. When he's ready to recall his identity, it's just a matter of opening the watch, that is, if you can get through the perception filter. Since you're all human and not Gallifreyan, this watch won't be much use to you for the whole memory/biology storage business. It's just a very spiffy recreation of the watch that The Master was stored in when he was living life as Professor Yana. Open it up and press the button for an out of this world nightlight feature. Just promise us you won't decimate the world's population... no matter how cool the word "decimate" is. Product Specifications Authentic replica watch with light effects, modeled after the TV prop Available in plastic or diecast metal Watch has a nightlight feature and waistcoat chain Fully functional watch Zinc alloy case with detailed engraving Officially licensed Doctor Who collectible Batteries: Requires 2x 'SR626' batteries (included) Dimensions: Watch measures approx. 2" in diameter

Star Wars Poker Chip Set
Playing poker with Jedi SUCKS. Let's just get that out of the way as a fact of life. If you're not a Jedi and you get invited to play Hold 'Em with Jedi, just say no. You're gonna lose. For starters, they can shuffle the cards with their minds. They SAY they're fully shuffled, but you'll never get pocket aces. Never. But you've gotten The Hammer for the last three hands, and that just can't be a coincidence. Oh, and whenever you do get a good hand and start betting on it, you always get the uncontrollable feeling that you want to fold. It's... peculiar. But we will say this: the Jedi have an amazing poker chip set. The solid black case holds 200 chips that glow like lightsaber blades. They're even illustrated with portraits of the masters of the Force - Yoda, Obi-Wan, Skywalker, and everyone's favorite lost boy, Vader. There's even a chromed metal representation of Vader's Flying Pillbox to use as the dealer button and flashy cards with the Rebel Alliance symbol on the backs. Yep, those Jedi sure do know how to put on a classy game of cards. But despite their "moral codes", they are cheaters, plain and simple.

Mirror Universe LED Digital Watch
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. We at ThinkGeek know that you don't need to wear a watch; but with watches like ours, you may well want to wear one. The Mirror Universe LED Digital Watch appears at first glance to be a shiny, chunky metallic bracelet. But press the button and the 93 bright blue LEDs will jump into motion, first displaying the time and then scrolling through a short message of your choice. It can be an affirmation: "U R GREAT," a warning: "NOKILLBOSS," or a simple reminder for later: "BUY MILK." Change the message whenever you like.

Survival Kit in a Sardine Can
Sardines come packed in metal tins and even though they are a good source of omega 3 fatty acids, they are still oily and kind of funky smelling.

Go fish with the hook and line, find your way home with the compass, boil water in the can for your tea and sugar, use the first aid supplies to survive the wilderness.

Scandiphone Retro Telephone
When we first saw this phone we knew we had seen it... somewhere. Luckily, a quick jaunt down Memory Lane (also known as Wikipedia) dug up the memories that had been lodged in the dusty regions of our brains. Scandiphone is based on the 1950s Ericofon, which was featured in the Twilight Zone episode "Third From the Sun" in 1960. But we knew we'd seen it elsewhere too. Maybe during an abduction experience? Oh no, it was during the episode "I, E.T." of Farscape! The Scandiphone Retro Telephone is the perfect phone for mad men, spacecraft-stealing scientists, or Farscape fans. Based on the unique upright phone introduced in Europe in the mid-1950s, the Scandiphone is a perfect example of form and function in harmony. (The original Ericofon is in the Museum of Modern Art for that very reason!) You might like one if you're looking for a whimsical way of keeping your land line or if you need a means of contacting the mothership. Product Specifications Retro 50s phone for Mad Men or Farscape fans Nostalgic styling based on the Ericofon The original Ericofon is in the Museum of Modern Art Land line, corded phone: plugs into a standard phone socket If you have to have a land line, at least make it a swanky one Features: Push button dialing, redial button, ringer volume, receiver hi/low switch, on/off switch

Alcohol By Volume Glass
The problem with most regular glasses is that you don't have much of a clue how much they hold. Sure, you could know it's a 16 ounce glass, but that's only when it's full. And how full is full? What if you want 8 ounces? If the glass is tapered in any way, you can't just fill it halfway up for 8 ounces. It's a OCD headache! But this isn't your ordinary pint glass! It's printed with measurements for various alcoholic drinks so you can accurately measure servings of beer, wine, or spirits. It shows the average percentage of alcohol by volume for each type of beverage, too. Use it to mix drinks or just to keep tabs on the amount of ethanol in your body. Remember to drink responsibly - we like having you chuckleheads around.

Mr. Bacon's Big Adventure Board Game
In Meatland, Bacon is king of the breakfast meats. And get this: it's not a new thing. While doing research on Bacon (our job rocks!), we discovered a satirical poem by Mr. Ebenezer Cooke from 1708, which laments about the prevalence of Bacon in colonial America. And notice how we're capitalizing the first letter of "Bacon", that's because we want to show Bacon the respect it deserves. And that's why Mr. Bacon's Big Adventure Board Game exists - to celebrate our favorite meat, and let us play with it even when we are away from the breakfast table. Mr. Bacon's Big Adventure Board Game encourages you to play with your meat. As you move your bacon character along the path through Meatland, you'll have to navigate your way through areas like the Mustard Marsh, the Wiener Wasteland, and the Sausage Sea. The first one to make it to the frying pan at the end of the trail wins! So whether you enjoy your Bacon by the slice or by the rasher, Mr. Bacon's Big Adventure Board Game is the game for you.

But there's no reason we shouldn't look like we've been around forever. Check it. Motto: Ad Gloriam et Porcos (For pigs and glory!). Crest, consisting in both the tool and the platform for creation, the sword in acknowledgement that learning gives you the means to defend yourself, and the rock-hard cornerstone of our institution.

Pi By Numbers
What is Pi? Some might define it as the ratio of a circle's circumference divided by its diameter. Others might think it's an irrational number that's impossible to know completely. Still others might think it's a mystical, transcendental, almighty number that will only finally be revealed when society as a whole puts on a bunch of purple felt jump suits and hitches a ride on a nearby comet. Those people aren't reading this description though. They are browsing the howtothinklikeaflower.com website. But we digress... We here at ThinkGeek like to think of Pi as a way to help you come up with creative reasons to spend your hard earned cash on a T-shirt. Quick question. When is Pi day? March 14th of course. Think about that for a second. Now, while still mesmerized, drop this shirt into your shopping cart. Metro blue 100% cotton heavyweight t-shirt with the Pi symbol on it. The first 4493 digits of Pi were used to construct the Pi symbol itself. That's a whole lot of Pi. Enough for everybody to share so don't get greedy on us now. A big shout out from ThinkGeek goes to Archimedes way back in the B.C. for finally giving us a good approximation of Pi, and doing so without the benefit of modern trigonometry. And thanks to the Egyptians and Babylonians for trying.

Wouldn't life be a hell of a lot easier if it were a video game? Concrete goals like "Save the Princess" would make worries like "What college do I attend?" completely obsolete.

Many times in life we avoid taking a risk because of the dire consequences (death, dismemberment) involved. Collect a 1up mushroom and you would have carte blanche to try pretty much anything with no permanent repercussions. So go ahead... stick that plasma mug in the microwave for 30 minutes.

We think it's about time the felines got some of their own vehicular activities. Introducing the Cat Play Fire Engine, Plane, and Tank. If you're thinking that your cats ain't gonna go near any of those objects in the real world, you're right, but they will go near cute models of those objects made out of the downy comforter of the cat world -- cardboard! Cardboard's mostly for sitting on and sleeping in, but it multitasks for shredding and gnawing on. And, if your cat's fond of the latter, you'll be glad to know that the ink is certified as non-toxic. So eat away, crazy kitteh! Each of these vehicle playsets comes flat-packed with Ikeaesque instructions. Putting them together requires five minutes and opposable thumbs. When you're done, though, you'll have the ultimate kitty hideout. The tank's turret and gun move. The propeller on the airplane spins, and the ladder extends on the fire truck. Don't be surprised, though. if you find your cat attempting to head for the closest drive thru for a cheeseburger.

Caffeinated Nixie Tubes
A ThinkGeek Exclusive Candy - now with 200mg of caffeine per tube! Dr. Timmy sat in his lab contemplating his youth, which grew more distant with every passing thought. Mainly, he reminisced about his favorite childhood candies. One in particular stood out. It was basically a paper tube filled with powder candy (we won't mention names, but you know what we mean). Suddenly, Dr. Timmy threw back his head and began to laugh. He dashed about his lab, flipping switches and throwing levers. There was a crash of lightning and Dr. Timmy held in his hands a thing of beauty. A test tube filled with powder candy (like he remembered), but with a mad scientist twist: it was now loaded with caffeine. And thus, Caffeinated Nixie Tubes were born. If we do say so ourselves, Caffeinated Nixie Tubes are to die for. They are sweet, they are sour, and each tube is loaded with 200mg of caffeine (more than most energy drinks)! Each pack has five mouth-watering flavors and uses encapsulated caffeine technology to bring you the most buzz without even a hint of caffeine taste. Here's how we recommend taking them (for maximum potency): get a buncha spit in your mouth and pour the whole tube (or as much as you can) under your tongue. Then let it dissolve a bit; swish it around in your mouth; savor the flavor and feel the buzz; and then swallow. Trust us, if you "shoot up" like that, the caffeine of our Caffeinated Nixie Tubes will get into your blood faster. Dr. Timmy wants you to stay awake forever; Dr. Timmy prescribes Caffeinated Nixie Tubes! For nutrition information, click here. Caffeinated Nixie Tubes Delicious sour powder candy, loaded with caffeine! 200mg of caffeine per tube. Flavors: Cherry, Lemon/Lime, Fruit Punch, Watermelon, and Blue Raspberry Each pack contains one of each flavor. Each tube is 8g of power powder goodness.

R/C Zombie
Life isn't fair. Some people are born with good looks, others are born with exceptional talents and skills, and still others are born with massive intelligence. You? Well, you were born with all of those qualities (we know . . . just like us). But what to do with the rest of the world - all those inferior to you? We recommend unleashing the undead. Not a horde or anything that could get out of control, but just a single Zombie to feast on the tiny brains who work around you. You are in full control of this zombie, don't worry. Just use the Brain Remote Control and your undead minion will obey your command to shamble forward towards its intended meal. And just to show you how much it likes you, your R/C Zombie will groan as it shuffles, too (press button, he walks and groans; press it again, he stops). To help your zombie, you can also pose its articulated neck, shoulders, and hips. Just keep reminding your zombie that it shouldn't eat a big brain like yours; it should eat many little brains like those found in your coworkers' heads. Because studies have shown that many little meals during the day are much better for you than one big meal. Braaaaiiiiins.

Bag of Prehistoric Fossils
You want to know the real circle of life? Everything that was in the past becomes the paperweights for the things that are in the present. That means, in the future, when humankind has evolved into space-faring, giant, monkey-chickens, all your stuff will just sit on their desks. But today is the present, so you don't have to worry about the future just yet. For now, be content with putting the past on your desk. And no easier way than with a Bag of Prehistoric Fossils! With each Bag of Prehistoric Fossils, you'll get four different fossil species. Let's list 'em, just for fun. Crinoids (Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Echinodermata) - Also known as sea lilies and feather stars Gastropods (Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Mollusca) Also known as snails and slugs Ammonites (Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Mollusca) Extinct group of marine animals. Closest living relatives are the octopus, squid, cuttlefish, and nautilus. Clams (Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Mollusca) Delicious when fried (but then, isn't everything?) See, you get all sorts of good remnants from the past. Also, you get a scary thing from the present: a shark's tooth. Why? Because sharks predate the dinosaurs (yikes). So, grab a Bag of Prehistoric Fossils and hold prehistory in the palm of your hand. Please Note: Because these are real fossils (and not like Grandma or the snack chips you found in your sofa cushions), expect natural variations if you order more than one. Life is too diverse and wonderful to look mass produced.

Your last cocktail party was fine, I guess. I mean, the little turkey rolls were good, and those little cubes of cheese...

Sprinkler Hide-A-Key
When it comes to hiding things, this can be done in many different ways. Camouflage or concealment are the most common ways to hide something and in more sophisticated situations cryptography can be used to hide the content of a message. Hiding money is also common but sometimes can lead to very large problems when discovered (or if you forget where your money is hidden). Rather than the old standard under-the-doormat or inside a plastic rock, this fake inground sprinkler head offers a good place to put a set of spare keys or maybe an emergency USB flash drive. It looks like a regular sprinkler head and the tough water-tight plastic case holds multiple keys.

Tiltpod Quick-Connect Camera Stabilizer
How many times have you wished you could have been in the picture? You know when the group of friends gets together for a party and you're the only one who knows how to use the camera? Or perhaps hiked up a mountain and wished you could take a picture of yourself in front of the awesome sunset? Of course your compact digital camera has a self-timer, but how are you going to get the shot to line up just right? Carry a tripod with you? No, you need something light, something portable. You need a Tiltpod Quick-Connect Camera Stabilizer. The Tiltpod Quick-Connect Camera Stabilizer will always be ready when you need it. First, attach one of the pivots to your camera (use the screw on pivot if your tripod mount is in the center of your camera; use the stick on if it ain't). Then, thread the base through your wrist strap. The base has a strong magnet in it, and it attaches to the pivot point - giving you a ball jointed pivot to easily frame up your shot. And, the base of the Tiltpod Quick-Connect Camera Stabilizer has a grippery bottom to easily hold on to rocks, posts, tables, whatever you need to set your camera on to set it up. See? So with the Tiltpod Quick-Connect Camera Stabilizer you can easily set down your camera, adjust the shot, hit the self timer, and jump into frame! Oh, and it's also great for capturing photos that need a long exposure (like night shots) and hands free video. Trust us, once you capture your first special picture using your Tiltpod Quick-Connect Camera Stabilizer, you will be as hooked as we are. P.S. Camera not included. Tiltpod Quick-Connect Camera Stabilizer: A truly pocketable camera support - with a magnetic ball pivot to adjust to any angle! Great for taking self-timer group photos, long exposure night photos, and hands free video. Just screw in the rounded pivot (or stick on the sticky one, if your tripod socket is off center) and attach the base to your wrist strap. Now, you're ready for anything. The underside of the base is made of a grippy surface, to hold on at almost any angle. Oh, and it's magnetic, too. Made for compact digital cameras (aka: not for SLR or DSLR's). Includes: Stick on pivot, screw on pivot, magnetic base, wrist strap, and instructions. Base Dimensions: 2.125" x 1.5" x 0.25"

STFU University Hoodie
Whether you went to college or not (or "university" as you Europeeps are wont to call it), you can appreciate the desire to show support for your school. It doesn't matter if you want to put a sticker on your car, paint your chest with funny letters, or wear a furry animal suit at sporting events. If you love your school you'll find a way to show it. Well, we've teamed up with the fine folks over at STFUniversity to provide an outlet to show a little school spirit. STFU is our favorite institution, and though many of us attended other universities around the world, we're encouraging as many people as we can to embrace STFU and its ideals. Tuition is cheap at STFU, in fact it's free. There are no books to buy, and since there's no physical campus, you can study as little or as often as you like; though we think you'll find the more you immerse yourself in the STFU lifestyle, the happier and more fulfilled all our lives will be. 50/50 cotton/polyester 9.1 oz hooded sweatshirt with drawstring hood and "unipocket" in the front. "STFU" and "Subsiste Sermonem Statim" printed on the front with a strangely-gagged mascot in white, orange, and blue. There is a 'distressed' effect on the whole design for maximum University appeal. For the non-Latin-inclined, the motto translates to "Stop Talking Now." And, of course the year the University was founded is 1337.

At one time or another, the average computer savvy geek has been drafted to the stressful and low-paying ranks of "Tech Support". All of us at ThinkGeek have done it in one form or another. Whether due to job description or a family favor, sometimes you just have to help out a computer user in need. Unfortunately amongst the throngs of the clueless, there's bound to be a handful that stand out for their phenomenal lack of brain cells and inability to listen and follow directions. When one of these lusers needs help, be prepared to work through your lunch break, bang your head on the table a few times, and hit the mute button on the phone and scream. When confronted with such a vacuum in the universe of clue, the only way to classify the problem is PEBKAC. Don't know what PEBKAC is? You may be experiencing an ID-ten-T error. But because we're feeling generous today, we'll help you out. PEBKAC = Problem Exists Between Keyboard and Chair. 100% cotton heavyweight black t-shirt.

codemonkey
This shirt is for coders like ours here at ThinkGeek World Domination HQ who embrace their monkey-ness. Who climb to the tops of the tallest trees to announce it to the world. Who go bananas for some good code. In terms of the Jargon File definition, we're talking about definitions 2 and 3. We dream of a day when 1 is no longer in use. code monkey: n A person only capable of grinding out code, but unable to perform the higher-primate tasks of software architecture, analysis, and design. Mildly insulting. Often applied to the most junior people on a programming team. Anyone who writes code for a living; a programmer. A self-deprecating way of denying responsibility for a management decision, or of complaining about having to live with such decisions. As in "Don't ask me why we need to write a compiler in COBOL, I'm just a code monkey." Of course, it's easy to embrace your simian side when your have Timmy as your mascot. More difficult for many corporate codemonkeys, probably. You probably often have to keep your monkey-ness under a bushel. Or, rather, a barrel. Right. Enough with the monkey business. We're here to help you let it out. Subtly. In the ThinkGeek way. You want to do it more boldly, feel free to add in a Screaming Monkey Slingshot to that order.

No, I will not fix your computer
There is nothing more frustrating on this earth than constantly being asked to help other people with their petty computer problems. Of course if your job description dictates that you have to fix other peoples computers, then there is nothing so frustrating as being forced to do so ;) "Hey Mark, I don't have a modem and can't connect to the Internet, can you fix this?"

The ThinkGeek USB Snowbot
Color changing scan, eerie Snowbot sound, articulating arms...a ThinkGeek exclusive... Last December, as we were settling down for a long winter's nap, we were visited by two robots from the future! They spoke to us and now it is time to share their message. There's good news and bad news. The good news is there are tons of really cool robots in the future. The bad news is they are divided into two factions, are waging war against each other, and have "downgraded" humans to pretty much servants and food. We quickly smashed the robots with hammers, and swore to devise a way to save humanity. Before we destroyed the robots, however, we were able to learn two things. 1. Each army of robots uses a different color scanning light (red or blue); 2. We have no idea which side is in humanity's best interest to win. So we built the Snowbot - a small, winter-themed beacon…and perhaps our only hope. Powered by a simple USB port, the Snowbot has a scanning light just like the robots from the future. You can change the speed of the scan, turn on/off the scanning noise, and (for future protection) change the scan color (red or blue). So no matter which robot army storms your home or office, a quick flick of a switch and you are rooting for the invader's color. Hopefully then the robots will just make you a servant and not an appetizer. Good luck and happy holidays. The ThinkGeek Snowbot Features: USB Powered (for great justice!) Scanning LED Robotic Eye Rate of sweeping is controllable via knob Selectable LED Robotic Eye Colors (Blue or Red) Authentic Snowbot Sound (on/off switch) Rotating, articulating metal arms Coiled (12") USB cable extends to 30" ThinkGeek Notes: There is a chance that the artificial intelligence which created the robot armies of the future originated from a massive connection of small USB desktop devices plugged into computers connected to the Internet. Please don't blame us if, by attempting to find a way to save humanity, we have inadvertently doomed it. Thank you.

And so it is with the Zombie Blood Caffeinated Energy Potion. Read on, if you dare.

Star Wars Remote Controlled Lightsaber Room Light
As wee geeks, we were irrational little beings. It's no wonder, since the human brain is not fully developed until age 22. So we believed until just recently that monsters lived under our beds and that when the lights went out, horrible things could happen to us. We practiced hiding under our covers and breathing as shallowly as we possibly could so the monsters would think we weren't there. Did it work? Suppose it did, after all, we're here, aren't we? How much more secure would we have been in our beds if we had this Lightsaber Room Light mounted on our wall? Press the button on the remote control and the hilt fires up and light fills the room. Certainly this would have terrified any monstrous creature and kept us safe. Why not give your wee geek the peace of mind you didn't have? This kit has everything you need to construct a lightsaber and mount it on your wall. Choose from 8 awesome color effects, plus auto-spectrum using the remote control!

Metal Star Wars Posters
We go through several stages of decor as fanboys and fangirls. When we were teenagers, we ripped things straight out of magazines and taped them to the walls of our bedrooms. (We never used tacks; Mom would flip a lid.) Then in college, we graduated to posters held up with that blue sticky stuff that didn't always hold. After college, we tried to frame some of our posters, but it was only a slight improvement in their style. Now, we're big ol' grownups but we're still major Star Wars fans. How do we show our love of Star Wars in our grown-up abode without turning it Dorm Room Chic? With these metal movie posters, of course! We love these replica movie posters from Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi. Reproduced and crafted in painted metal, the intentional distressing in the design gives them an authentic vintage look, perfect for any room in your home.

Spock Cookie Jar
If you have a sweet tooth, you might think that your cravings for sugary delights are totally illogical. Out of nowhere, your brain screams, "COOKIE!" Suddenly all of your thoughts veer off course and all you can think about is sinking your teeth into a soft, squishy, sweet chocolate chip cookie. You can feel the texture of it. The way the sugar seems to make a beeline from your taste buds straight to the pleasure center of your brain. Truth is, those cravings are totally logical. Our bodies are programmed to want sugar, fat, and salt. These desires live deep in our caveman brains. When we find a food that has a combination of these things - say, a warm, soft, gooey chocolate chip cookie - our brain lights up like a carnival. Thus, Spock here doesn't judge your cookie cravings. He knows they're totally logical and he’s equipped himself to provide you with the sugar, fat, and salt your brain wants. Nom away!

Every student of physics knows that Schrödinger's 1935 paper regarding a hypothetical paradox involving a cat has perplexed and annoyed physics geeks for years. The basic idea; If the outcome of a circumstance is presently unknown and by observing the circumstance you will disrupt it, then it exists in all possible states simultaneously... Simple! At least to quantum physicists with massive craniums. And hey eventually this principle will seem commonplace, but by then our highways will connect galaxies and shirts like this will be so utterly obvious that they'll likely be dish rags. Don't get it? We propose the following thought experiment: Give your friend enough money to purchase the "Schrödinger's Cat" shirt (don't forget the shipping). Tell your friend to take the money and lock himself in a room with a cigarette lighter. Let your friend know that once in the room he is to randomly choose either to burn the money, or return in five minutes with the money intact. We emphasize that this must be completely random (aka, impossible for a human to determine but bear with us). Your friend must then stay in this box for eternity. Hey, that's how thought experiments work. Hopefully he/she is OK with that. Since you have no idea whether your friend will destroy the money, you will simultaneously either lose or recover that money. So in a quantum sense, if you extend that logic, you will simultaneously either be able to purchase or not purchase this very t-shirt which enabled you to make the choice in the first place. Isn't physics fun? Perhaps when it was based on Newton, but now things are getting really hairy. Just wait another 100 years, we haven't seen anything yet.... Black, babydoll (fitted) t-shirt. Stretchy and fitted, not baggy like the guys' stuff! Printed in white with "Schrödinger's Cat is Dead" on the front and "Schrödinger's Cat is Not Dead" on the back. Note: Don't want to have to explain this shirt to strangers? Fear no more! We now have free Schrödinger's Cat Pocket Cards to go with your shirt. They're perfect to print out and keep in your wallet so you can hand them out and make your escape while said strangers are busy reading.
