Nerd Swag

There was a sad story a week ago about a Halo fan who’s 360 took a dump, as they’re prone to doing, only to have the original artwork and signatures that were on the 360 console wiped clean. This was well after the fan had been promised by Microsoft that his ‘custom’ 360 would be fixed and the Master Chief art and Bungie developers autographs would be preserved once he sent it in for a fix. It was pretty distressing to say the least for this fan that had been assured everything was going to be fine only to have his console returned to him sans the very art he wished to keep.

Yes, now this is a scarf I can get behind.  Apparently, this female knitted a Mike Tyson’s Punch Out! scarf and is selling it for $175.  The care and craftsmanship are definitely apparent, but I’m not sure about the price.  Anyway, its still really neat and I have to give her props on those 8-bit knitting abilities.

For those of us who aren’t quite ready to tie the knot, this shirt is self explanatory. It can be found on several online retail sites such as www.amazon.com.

Anyone who has spent any time eavesdropping in the Japanese subways should be keenly aware of the societal menace that is the Chikan. For those of you who haven’t had the benefit of visiting the motherland**, the Chikan is a man who uses the sardine-can-like properties of trains at rush hour to get his jollies. Some claim that there are also female Chikans (called Chijo), but that sounds too good to be true if you ask me.

Anyway, thanks to our friends over at Jlist /Jbox, you too can now express your concern for this very urgent problem with this fashionable t-shirt!

**ok, it’s not actually my motherland, but it really should have been.
