Celebrate your love of all things Star Wars with a lamp designed to look like the smartest droid alive. Not that you needed a reason to buy anymore Star Wars-related stuff for your house but I think it might be nice to shed some light on your obsession and maybe, I don’t know, take a moment to ask yourself if you might have a problem.
Not that I think a 40 year-old guy/girl living in what is essentially a gigantic playroom is necessarily something to apologize for…although I have a feeling others might.
A giant pencil sharpener that is created to peel carrots.
That’s it.
Yep, sometimes it’s the simple things that make you feel good about life.
Another R2-D2 thing?
Yes, but this one is for soy sauce so it’s not like the lamp above and besides, it’s adorable…don’t question my reasons.
I enjoy messing with people’s minds and nothing is more upsetting to a guest than to pinch a loaf in a unfamiliar toilet, wash their hands with soap that smells like cauliflower and then dry them on a towel that appears as if you murdered someone recently.
This is probably why I don’t have many friends.
I was a skater chick during my later elementary school days and spent hours falling off a Santa Cruz board, onto my face and getting road rash until my legs were permanently scarred. After seeing me bloody for the umpteenth time, my mother laid down some serious truth, “I think skating is better left to people who aren’t so bad at it” and thus that ended my career as a skater.
But I think it would be nice to put one of these lovingly used skateboard lamps in my home where I can gaze at it and remember all the great times I had breaking my thumb, busting open my lip, falling over the back of a half-pipe and cracking open my head, running into a parked car….well, you get the idea.
A perfect gift for a former skate rat or for someone who has managed to keep from being a spaz while doing an ollie.
E.T. Stunt Puppet Replica Statue
Don’t phone home, just phone all your friends and tell them you are the proud (not to mention super awesome) owner of a life-size E.T. prop replica! No words can describe this greatness!
Except, maybe, by shoving him into a bike basket and riding over to friend’s houses to tell them in person.
(note: he will look good hiding in your closet)
Free Verse Reveries Duvet Cover
As a writer, some of my best story ideas come while I am sleeping and occasionally, if I’m lucky, I can find some paper and a pen to write them down before they slip back into the ether of my dreams.
But with this notebook paper-style duvet cover, I don’t have to search for that elusive notepad (that always seems to hide when I need it the most) not when I can WRITE DIRECTLY ON MY BED with washable fabric pens (which come with it).
And in the morning when I read that at some point in the night I scrawled down a scene of My Little Pony slash fiction, I’ll be happy that it’ll remain there until I wash it away…much to the chagrin of my husband.
Pillow cases sold separately.

Basho the Sumo Wrestler Sculpture End Table
Cheesy? Yes. Awesome? You betcha!
One should never be afraid of decorating one’s home with things that make them laugh and with the Sumo Wrestler end table, I’m guessing that no one will be able to stop cackling once they see it.
Which probably means that the person who owns this piece of furniture will be beloved by all who know them…or, they will be thought of as a fool, either way, it’s going to look great next to your couch.
We might never be lucky enough to afford to go into space, but that doesn’t mean we can’t pretend we are floating somewhere in the galaxy from the comfort of our own home.
Not when we can slap up a huge mural of the universe on a wall and dress up like an astronaut.

Beautiful, calming and all yours.

And decorating each door of my home with a decal seems like an awesome way to begin making that transformation into a reality.
Oh yeah, this is also an awesome gift for a Harry Potter fanatic which will most likely upset either their parent or life partner due to it’s kitschiness but let them know that the decal is removable and won’t harm the door.

Star Trek Transporter Room Bath Mat & Shower Curtain Set
Apparently one of the questions Star Trek fans repeatedly ask is, “Where are the bathrooms on the Enterprise?” (Sorry. “Waste extraction units” for the Ferengi among us.) We rarely see them, and you know why? Nobody wants a plot that revolves around a rogue replicator turning waste materials into tea, earl grey, hot.
Maybe your significant other won’t let you turn the living room into the bridge of the Enterprise, but just one little room won’t hurt, right? Transform your bathroom into the transporter room from Star Trek: The Original Series with this bath set. Think Geek provides the transporter room background on the shower curtain and the platform in the rug. You provide the water to make it look like you’re dematerializing and the sound effects.
Wanna completely confuse people who use your bathroom? Then mount this Polaroid TP Holder next to the toilet and wait for the funny to happen.
Sure, they may think you’re a pervert for having a camera in your bathroom and use your hand towels to wipe off the various waste products from their down low parts, but no one ever said humor wasn’t messy.
