Geeky Clothing – The Game Over Mushroom T-Shirt

Check out this fun t-shirt, The Game Over Mushroom T-Shirt.

Geeky Clothing - The Game Over Mushroom T-Shirt

Today’s vocabulary word is “mycetism,” which Wikipedia defines as the “deleterious effects from ingestion of toxic substances present in a mushroom.” Good word to know, especially if you’re playing one of the Mario games. Just as in real life some poisonous fungi cause mild gastrointestinal distress and others cause internal organ failure, the effect and appearance of Nintendo’s poison mushrooms varies from game to game. Mario’s reaction to the poison mushroom can range from shrinkage to death. Death would be our least favorite effect.

So there are poison mushrooms that are all-green, green with purple spots, dark red, brown…. We like the purple top with the skull. There ain’t no two ways about that. There’s no, “Hey. I wonder if this mushroom is friendly.” It’s got a SKULL on it. It doesn’t want to play with you. But that’s okay, cause we do.

The Game Over Mushroom T-shirt is available to buy online for $18.99 from ThinkGeek.

Geeky Watches – The Square LED Binary Watch

Check out this geeky watch, The Square LED Binary Watch

Geeky Watches - The Square LED Binary Watch

This watch uses two rows of either blue or red LEDs to indicate the time. If a LED is glowing this represents a “one” for that column’s value and if the LED is off this represents a “zero”. The values for LEDs that are on can be added to determine the hours and minutes. In a short while you will be able to read the time in this format, thus moving you one step closer to geek perfection. Your fellow geeks will only be able to look at your watch with a somewhat bewildered expression when they ask you, “what time is it?”

Here’s the specs.

  • Displays time using binary representation
  • Blue or Red LED lights indicate the hours and minutes
  • The upper LED-row shows hours (8-4-2-1)
  • The lower LED-row shows minutes (32-16-8-4-2-1)
  • Push button – the time is displayed for 5 seconds
  • Watch face contains 10 LEDs
  • Stylish square watch face design
  • Leather band and stainless steel back
  • Water resistant (3 Atm)
  • Battery included (type CR2032)
  • Instruction manual included
  • Dimensions: 1-1/2″ wide x 7/16″ thick (38mm x 11mm)
