Even on Halloween, when you’re all hopped up on candy, using a mouse can be tiring. For the people who don’t use a vocally controlled mouse, you’re going to need a place to rest your hand. Good thing ThinkGeek is selling this foam wrist-rest that’s shaped like a disembodied hand. It’s perfect for October. $9.99 isn’t a bad price for either a wrist-rest or Halloween decoration. This hand doubles as both!
ThinkGeek does it again! This time, the gadget outfitter is offering up a pair of night vision goggles for the low price of $90. That’s right. For under $100, you can get a pair of goggles that will truly unleash your inner peeping tom. ThinkGeek is sold out right now but it’s taking backorders and they’ll ship October 6th.
Love played out Internet memes? Of course you do! Why not drop your hard earned cash on these LOLmagnets from ThinkGeek? At $20, you’ll only have to take 4 or 5 showers to wash off all the shame you’ll encounter from purchasing these. You’ll get a ridiculous LOLspeak manual and 384 “words” to spell out kooky catch phrases with.
CAN WE HAZ STOOPID MEME END NOW? KTHXBAI.
Last night, I watched the David Lynch flick Blue Velvet for the first time ever. I was shocked so much, that I still don’t think I’m over it. The doctor tells me I should do something “fun and stimulating.” So, taking his advice, I dropped $10 on this UFO flying disc from ThinkGeek. It glows in the dark and transforms while in flight to become a UFO. At this point, I’ll take a space alien over Frank and his nitrous tank.
“Don’t you fucking look at me!”
If you’re not familiar with Miracle Fruit, allow me to enlighten you. It’s a small, red berry that turns your taste buds up a notch. Sour things will taste sweet and sweet things will taste insanely sweet. Normally, these berries are a rare find in the US and the few Internet retailers that carry them are backordered like a motherfucker. Solution? ThinkGeek.
Unlike other retailers, ThinkGeek is only backordered until next week. But these Miracle Berry Fruit Tablets are essentially a powdered form of the fruit. No more worrying about the freshness of the berries. Just pop one in your mouth and let the fun begin. At $20 for 10 tablets, it’s not the cheapest fun around but it’s way better than a $100 minimum order. Try eating your own excrement and see if it tastes like peanut butter ice cream!
Be afraid…be very afraid. The SnuzNLuz Alarm Clock teaches you to be more punctual in one of the most torturous ways possible. SnuzNLuz connects directly to your bank account and donates money to an organization you can’t stand every time you oversleep. The example used is the GOP. For all we care you can set it to be the NAACP. Whatever gets your ass out of bed and keeps your money in check.
Though if you do decide to order a SnuzNLuz, we suggest donating money to the “feed the Gearfuse writers” fund. All proceeds will be used to feed me. Setup is easy. The clock is equipped with Ethernet and WiFi capabilities and it supports over 1600 different banks, so yours is probably there. ThinkGeek offers these donation ideas:
Are you a butcher? Set your SnuzNLuz to donate to PETA.
Are you a republican? Set your SnuzNLuz to donate to the ACLU!
Are you a land developer? Set your SnuzNLuz to donate to the Wilderness Society!
Enjoy your freedom? Set your SnuzNLuz to donate to the GOP.
Are you a hippie? Set your SnuzNLuz to donate to the American Coal Foundation.
Are you a Ninja? Set your SnuzNLuz to donate to, hrrrm, we can’t find a Pirate Charity at the moment. But there must be one somewhere anyways, the point is it’s easy to setup once you identify your enemy!
We’d like to add “Are you not an asshole? Set your SnuzNLuz to donate to Gearfuse.” Oh, we’re just kidding. But seriously…give us money. — Andrew Dobrow
Ever seen one of those shows on the Discovery channel when they go into hotels or other grungy places and put on a UV light to illuminate all of the bodily made spittle? Yeah, ew. The UV Disinfectant Wand projects intense UV rays that kill 99.9% of all germs in less then 10 seconds. Since this is radiation we’re talking about here, you don’t want to use this thing consistently on any parts of your body or your potential to reproduce will most definitely be reduced.
At least the Wand is kind of cool looking. It opens in a clamshell flip phone like way so even the clean geek can still hold up his geekish cred. It’s been tested by laboratories nationwide so appears to do the job it says it does, and only runs on 2 AAA batteries. And definitely comes in handy when you have various nerds sneezing crap onto your keyboard everyday. — Andrew Dobrow

You might of forgotten, but these floppy disks were once the storage media of choice. Now your most likely to find them piled at trash dumps or buried in your closet somewhere. The Floppy Disk Journal gives a new use to an obsolete technology.
These old floppy drives have been converted into functioning notebooks. What’s really cool about this is that they are all custom made with different software disks, so who knows what yours might be. They are not replicas. They are real recycled floppies. It’s a hell of a notebook to use for your Hipster PDA for all of you minimalist lifehackers out there. — Andrew Dobrow

All divrocee’s….RUN! No, but seriously this thing is frightening. ThinkGeek has this, um, interesting Knife Holder. It could be used as either a Valentine’s Day gag gift (for next year, of course) or an ultra serious gift. Expect very different reactions depending on who you give it too.
The five razor sharp knives included in this set are impaling this poor sunburned man. Not only that, but someone has implanted magnets in his body so that he can’t take the knives out with his own will. Oh, the agony! Pick one up for $69.99. The Ex- Knife Holder ironicly comes with a 25 year warranty. — Andrew Dobrow
