The 8-bit tie was supposed to be a practical joke, but there was such a huge response to it, they actually made it! I think my favorites so far are the ones from last year: the <a href="http://www.thinkgeek.com/stuff/41/wiihelm.shtml" rel="nofollow">WiiHelm</a> and the Surge Stix (they don't have a link to these!). That WiiHelm video had me rolling on the floor! I know, they sell such outrageous stuff that they really sucker me in with these joke products!

Yes Hamish, we are silly :) LaurenMarie, yeah. I got a newsletter from Think Geek with that stuff. They have such weird stuff I didn't realise they were joking! My reaction was "gross" to the peeing thing. The Labrinth Lock, Spazztroids and t-shirts look like stuff they'd sell.

Liars!!!! Ahhhhh...........:( I fell for it!
