Think Geek

Think Geek
ThinkGeek started as an idea. A simple idea to create and sell stuff that would appeal to the thousands of people out there who were on the front line and in the trenches as the Internet was forged. From programmers, engineers, students, lovers of open source, to the masses that helped create the behind-the-scenes Internet culture. ThinkGeek started as a way to serve a market that was passionate about technology. Three out of the four founding members started an ISP in the Northern Virginia area way way bck in 1995. We couldn't afford Solaris, learned about a free UNIX-like OS, and spent almost an entire day downloading it onto over 50 floppies for installation on an old 486 laptop with no cd-rom (thanks Slackware!). After a few years with the ISP gig, the ThinkGeek idea popped into our heads, and, operating out of a spare room at the ISP office we setup shop and launched the site on Friday the 13th, 1999.

  • "You would think this would have been the quickest shirt from idea to warehouse. We obviously already had the art. It's on the side of almost every package that leaves our warehouse. We know the colors; it's black ink on a cardboard box. But, believe it or not, ""cardboard box"" isn't really a color that garment manufacturers make. There were lots of chestnuts and tans and chocolates and mochas and espressos (maybe t-shirt girl shouldn't write copy while she's hungry...). There was no cardboard to be found. We'd find a color that worked for the men, but then we couldn't get it for ladies or kids. Or vice versa. Finally, our screenprinter said, ""You know what? How about if we custom dye y'all some shirts to match your boxes."" Sent them a package from our warehouse full of caffeinated brownies, and, the next thing we knew, we had a set of shirts that's a dead-ringer for our boxes. That's a long way of saying, ""here's a shirt."" Timmy's head and the caveat ""Warning! Extreme Monkey-Pow

For even a Sphere - which is my proper name in my own country - if he manifest himself at all to an inhabitant of Flatland - must needs manifest himself as a Circle. - Edwin Abbott Abbott, Flatland, a Romance of Many Dimensions (1884) We presume that to a denizen of Minecraft spheres would be sort of like what non-Euclidean geometry is to us.

  • "In today's corporate world, you often have to sign an agreement that says you don't even own your own thoughts while employed by said Evil Corporate Overlord. That makes even the littlest things at work count. For instance, listening to your music at a reasonable level while collating, receiving a piece of the obligatory birthday cake for the coworker nobody likes, and keeping your red Swingline stapler, even when they switch to the Boston stapler, because the Swingline doesn't bind up as much. Did you know the iconic red Swingline was fabricated as a prop for Office Space? Swingline didn't have a red model at the time. Our sister site Slashdot recorded the moment of joy when it finally came on the market in 2002. Of course, you can get one from us, but we created this shirt for those of you who want to carry your obsession with you but don't want to modify your tool / gadget belt to accommodate a stapler. 100% cotton heavyweight t-shirt claims dibs on your office supply of choice.

(Hey -- we have our personal addictions, too, but it's not our main topic of conversation.) This past weekend amongst a dozen friends a particular parasite came up for discussion independently in two different groups of people (there was one person in the crosssection of the Venn Diagram of those present who identified the topical overlap, an event which T-Shirt Girl will now refer to as the ""parazeitgeist."") Also, we have arguments about where the period should go in that previous sentence. We love our smart friends. Hanging out with smart people may make you seem normal by comparison, but think of the rest of the poor fools on this bell chart.

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

It's appropriate that this design would be a parody of Shepard Fairey's iconic Hope design since hope is one of the few things Inigo has. Count Rugen robs him of his father, his sword, and the next 20 years of his life, which he dedicates to studying swordplay so that he can get back at the man. So maybe it's not so much ""hope"" he has as ""vengeance."" In this particular case, they're much the same thing. Oversized, stylized, blue and red print of Inigo with the words ""PREPARE To Die"" on the bottom on an ice grey, 100% cotton t-shirt.".

You can ask folks what they see in the pattern (greygoo being the correct answer for sane people) and you can also ask them which robots they can identify to figure out what type of geeks they are.

We can get so absorbed in something that the physical world all around us doesn't exist until freaking gravity has to comes along to remind us. This shirt is for the folks who are in that world, zoning out, whether to code or a good game or research or whatever. A blue figure clad in yellow robes with a monitor which displays ""HELLO WORLD"" for a head is surrounded by a mandala design containing caffeine, a 20-sided die, Pi, a sword and shield, a D-pad, a Bohr-model atom, Saturn (or some other ringed planet), a power symbol, and a brain on an indigo blue, 100% cotton t-shirt.".

  • "What's the tie between artificial intelligence and chess? As far back as the late 1700s inventors were trying to impress their audiences with automated chess players (automatons with a hidden human doing the chess playing, only they didn't tell the audiences that). In the 1940s, Alan Turing wrote out the directions for building a theoretical chess program, breaking the game down into computable parts. But why chess? What makes it different than, say, tic-tac-toe? Computers are great at tactical thinking; 1s and 0s lend themselves to that. Programming strategic thinking is more complicated, but possible. After all, Joshua figured out that the only winning move was not to play. Chess is special for a couple of reasons. It's something that everyone can theoretically play, but only the cleverest can win. The Grand Masters seem to have a grasp of all the calculations necessary to predict outcome, but also some ineffable quality that allows them to select the best move for each particular s

  • This hoodie features the battle scars you earned in your fight with the zombie hordes. Clearly, you've had better days. There are bloody handprints near the pockets and slashes across the chest. There's a deep slash across the back that reveals your exposed spine. There's a bandage on your left wrist revealing bite marks. There's a chunk of missing skull on the back of the hood, which is lined in brains. We'd say you ought to get that looked at, except there's a pretty massive blood spatter on the front of the hood around the area where your mouth would be. Which implies that you ain't one of us any more. But you put up a valiant fight, and for that we salute you. But we're not taking the helmet off, no how, no way. This charcoal grey full-zip hoodie is 100% cotton. It has two front pockets and ribbed cuffs and bottom. The zipper pull (not shown in the photo) is a silver-colored biohazard symbol.

One word of advice, never touch a habanero and then use the restroom without first washing your hands thoroughly. A pepper's hotness is measured in Scoville Units.
