We’ve got a secret we’d like to share: just because you rent your own apartment, have bought your own home, or live in a dorm, it doesn’t mean you’re such an adult that you have to lose sight of the fun, nerdy things you love. We’ve put together some of the coolest, nerdiest home decor items outside of Nintendo bed sheets.
Lightsaber coat hooks are an essential way to hang your jedi robe and BB-8 purse.
These classic book throw pillows express your love for the literary.
ART IS NOT ALWAYS ABOUT THE BEAUTY
Van Gogh to sleep with this comfy Starry Night TARDIS throw blanket.
"At the Enrichment Center, we promise never to value your safety above your unique ideas and creativity. However, do not slip on this Portal companion cube throw rug."
All your drinks are belong to these Mega Man 2 coasters.
This modular Tetris lamp can be stacked any which way, and the pieces illuminate on contact with each other.
That’s no moon… it’s a color changing Death Star lamp.
This Pac-Mac ghost USB lamp is not too spooky for us. It comes in 4 colors: Inky, Blinky, Pinky, and Clyde.
Is this a nifty sculpture or a Fallout Power Armor helmet coin bank? Why not both?
These Han and Leia bathroom towels feature one of their most famous quotes, but for bath time, we’d also have settled with “Get in there, you big furry oaf. I don’t care what you smell!”
Transport yourself to cleanliness with a Star Trek transporter room shower curtain.
Sure, this Chinese food take-out container laundry hamper isn’t fandom related, but can you really pass up the opportunity to have one in your bathroom?
Harness your inner Time Lord with the 11th Doctor’s Sonic Screwdriver as a toothbrush. (Do Time Lords even worry about oral care, or do they regenerate dental problems away? Hmm).
A Hazmat bath mat should be a really funny joke and not an indicator of how long you go between showers.
Winter is coming. Also, if you have these Game of Thrones map marker salt and pepper shakers, gourmet seasoning is coming.
These Star Wars planet drinking glasses are both gorgeous decor and an excellent geography lesson.
Harness your inner Daenerys (khaleesi for you casuals) with this Game of Thrones dragon egg cookie jar. Repeat after us: “Where. Are. My. Cookies?!”
Roll a crit on your morning coffee with this d20 coffee mug. (If you roll a 1, you get decaf).
Sure, you can have cereal in this shark attack bowl, but we think it’s best used for snacks. Nothing beats reaching into the maw of this super scary great white with your precious hand.
Make your spices scientific with this chemist’s spice rack. Our only complaint: the salt is not labeled NaCl.
Sugar Bombs were the most popular cereal in America before the war. Today, dusty old boxes decorate the shelves of abandoned homes throughout the wasteland. Harness nostalgia with a Sugar Bombs cereal bowl. It’s the best cereal you never had.
You know the best way to use this robot tea infuser? While singing the Flight of the Conchords song “Robots.” Binary solo!
Display which house in Westeros you think is the besteros with Game of Thrones house sigil cookie cutters.
This sleeping dragon cake pan makes us think of the Hogwarts slogan: "Draco dormiens nunquam titillandus". Or, in English: never tickle a sleeping dragon.
If your kitchen features an X-Wing knife block set, you not only get some new cutlery and an awesome X-Wing stand, but when you’re chopping vegetables you can also shout “Red 5, stabbing by!”
We suppose we could feature normal garden gnomes, but this ain’t your grandma’s garden. Make your mark on the neighborhood with a rampaging kaiju eating garden gnomes statue.
Not all gnomes are built to survive. This poor red shirt garden gnome was doomed as soon as he wore scarlet.
With this Game of Gnomes garden statue, you firmly declare: One gnome to rule them all, one gnome to find them, one gnome to--wait, wrong franchise.
These poor gnomes just can’t catch a break, can they? Round out your awesome garden decor collection with this zombie gnome statue. Braaaaaains.
Welcome to the Dark Side with a Darth Vader or Stormtrooper porch light cover. That is, unless you turn the light on.
Wow, you got to the end of our post? Have a cat tax! It’s a bucking sharkaroo shirt. Yee haw.

Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with you, ebay?

Today on What ThinkGeek wants to sell!
mynostrilsflare

i always downvote PR account posts.
TehStoner
Go fuck yourself, Ebay
EldritchNoodle
If you like this stuff, slink on over to www.thinkgeek.com. They sell almost everything listed here and tons more.
KatimusPrimeTV
A lot of these you can get on Thinkgeek.com as well. I have the portal carpet, 2 tardis blankets, a periodic elements blanket, and 1/2
KatimusPrimeTV
light up radiation coasters. There's still a lot more I want from the site as well. 2/2
celestedrake
eBay knows us...

Imgur is doing this brilliant thing where they personally sit down with sponsors and help them tie their products in with imgur community.
danielbredfeldt
Forget a blanket I want the exploding TARDIS as a rug. That'd be baller.
XhamWow
I have it. I love it. http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/11b2/?srp=11
LuckyMX
Aren't half of these from ThinkGeek.com and whatnot? XD
zseree
wth why are those book pillows $50 when thinkgeek still has them in stock at $25?
DeviouslyDelightful
My bank account still tells me no
immortalpoet
God damn fucking dipshit ads. Please just let me pay again not to see this shit...
XhamWow
Soooo... shop at ThinkGeek? I have quite a few items if anyone is considering a purchase from them.
jman9295
It looks like stuff that Sheldon and Leonard would buy to fill their apartment... or the CBS set designer who actually fills it.
Derakor
eBay? imgur promotes things as advertizments that arn't on the side of the page? odd.
kittaypandahippooooo
i will take that sweet Tetris lamp, please and thank you
missmurphay
Ok, I need that shark bowl.
lalalesbian
"Which house in Westeros you think is the besteros."
KarmasObsession
could have saved people a lot of time and just sent them to www.thinkgeek.com. That's where all these items are found anyway. i shop there
ChipSkylar
Holy shit, you're right! Less expensive over there, too. That portal rug for instance: http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/ilms/
KarmasObsession
you are welcome lol. been shopping there for years. problem is shipping is brutal in canada...more worth it to buy a few things than just 1
DanFranzen
Think Geek is great, but it's wildly overpriced. I can't find the Death Star light on there right now, though.
zseree
Those pillows are half the price on thinkgeek than they are on ebay.
DanFranzen
UPDATE: I got the Death Star light. It's pretty cool. Small, but cool.
Autumlove
I know we pay a premium for this stuff by default, but the quality is terrible 9 times out of 10. It sucks.
KarmasObsession
I've never had a problem with anything I've bought off the site.
misterbunkalup
God, that is the most fun I have ever had reading an ad.
eBay
koopaya
Not gonna lie eBay, I'd get the spice rack too if they would've bothered to label salt correctly. Sa isn't even on the table.
clln86
This just got me to spend an hour browsing Fallout merch on Ebay.
ServantOfTheGodEmperorOfUsersub
D&D and Fallout?! Sold. Thanks, eBay! Well. Eventually. Not much space in the dorm.
goldmansachsgotyourback
Is Don Draper behind this post? It smells like subliminal advertising, and cigarettes.
Rentonffs
A meme marketing department I see.
GoDeeGo
Fandom marketing department. :-)
BananaKegelMaster
It's all the rave!

This is actually a thing. Look up Storyful Career Opportunities

Those book pillows look comfy.

I just favorited an ad. God help me.

Personally, I sometimes buy shit so I sometimes like it when marketers show me some shit to buy.
BananaKegelMaster
Have you noticed more and more ads appearing regardless of the premium being paid?
mercilessloki
Bought the Star Wars Drinking Glasses. The alderaan glass came shattered in package. 9/10 would buy again.

VoidIncarnate
Wouldn't that be 5/6?
Piornet
I had never seen the Sugar Bombs bowl before. Going to get it for my husband for Christmas.
HyeSwagian
I was disappointed it was for the fallout cereal instead of the Calvin and Hobbes "Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs"
Piornet
The Fallout thing was an homage to Calvin and Hobbes, so don't be too disappointed :)
Piornet
And *ONLY* that. Fuck him.
Piornet
...okay, I'll get him other stuff too. Thank you all for listening.
Airebeam
That was beautiful.

What a rollercoaster.

I have that modular tetris lamp and I hate it. No magnets or anything to keep it together. If anyone in Winnipeg wants it, they can have it!
Mannythebearpig
ya my cousin had it a slight breeze would knock the whole thing over sadly not practical

PaddyOLatern
I'm in Winnipeg, I'll take it
neitherman
My old roommate had one. You could superglue the middles together to keep it from collapsing but you're one and done then.

i live in Winnipeg!
KatimusPrimeTV
My boyfriend has the tetris lamp in our office. I knock it down constantly out of not noticing it. I finally put it away because, fuck it.
ThePigeons
really? no magnets? wow, one thing in the ad that i wanted and POW it got shot down.
vienaragis
On the bright side, you can save that money for a quality product now!
ThePigeons
yay! money!
SerythValker
On the other bright side, its the back of the lamp!

I love how bitter this is.
koalapaca
The people match the weather :^)
vienaragis
Bitter is my middle name
ImHereForPornAndDumpsAndFactsAndShit
ill take it, pm me. east st paul
vienaragis
I'll see if I can track it down and let you know! We just moved so it will be in a box.
ImHereForPornAndDumpsAndFactsAndShit
alright
ISayFuckAllTheTime
Maybe glue some magnets on?
vienaragis
You could, they would have to be flat though. If the pieces don't make perfect contact they don't light up. It's just not a great product.
ISayFuckAllTheTime
:/ Lame. Sorry to hear about your luck
thisappisajoke
I think these products are the same ones that ThinkGeek gets and if it is, they're really poor quality things. Just saying.
vienaragis
Yeah I got mine from ThinkGeek. Many regrets.
SunderedShadow
Used to be better till Gamestop bought them.
vienaragis
Those star wars glasses too, I have heard they are trash and are from TG. I was super jacked about those too, glad I read before buying.
SweetGeekling
Why can't they just make/sell decent shit? I'd pay for it if it worked or was decent quality.
thisappisajoke
Because that's how most businesses work. Whatever brings them more money is what they'll sell. Their stuff is cheap, get what you pay for.
SunderedShadow
Gamestop bought them out, what I had gotten from them before that was good.. now its crap.
SweetGeekling
It's so sad. There have been exceptions, but the vast majority of stuff I've gotten from TG has been crap. I stopped buying from them.
thisappisajoke
Yeah, I've bought lots from them, I think 2-3 things I have left were worth the purchase.
margaretolson
Really? damn it, that's disappointing. I was looking at stuff for Xmas from there...but thank you for posting this!!
vienaragis
I've had some winners from there before. Just read reviews before you buy! Be wary of clothing and dishes I'd say.
ThatOneGalFromThatOnePlaceThatYouTotallyKnow
I got the bag of holding and the fucking strap broke off. When I tried to contact them about it they said to talk to the manufacturer,
ThatOneGalFromThatOnePlaceThatYouTotallyKnow
because that product was 'discontinued.' Fucking bullshit that was it was still and still is in the store two years later.
ThatOneGalFromThatOnePlaceThatYouTotallyKnow
And alibaba is some shit ass company in China (maybe?) where nobody I spoke to spoke english properly and they said they couldn't help me.
