“You know what the great thing about bags is? They hold stuff. And you have stuff. What a coincidence! But you don’t want just any bag. The bag you choose says something about you. The +10 Bag of Groceries? I like this planet; it’s where I keep my bananas. The The Bag of Holding Messenger Bag? I have a 10 foot pole, and I’m not afraid to use it. And this one? I’d rather be gaming. Retro-style. You can have my console when you pry it out of my cold, dead hands. The Nintendo Reversible Messenger Bag measures 11″” tall x 15″” long with a 4″” gusset across the bottom. The front panel zips off to be reversible. One side is the classic NES controller; the other side is a pattern made out of tiny controllers. This reversible panel snaps closed with a side release (quick release) buckle to keep your stuff inside. Lifting the panel reveals a pocket, good for files, a composition notebook, TPS reports, and other goodies. The main compartment has a zipper across the top and a tiny zipper pouch inside for memory cards, thumb drives, or Starbucks gift cards. The shoulder strap is adjustable webbing and has a maximum 24″” drop. Made from 100% polyester for its durability and hydrophobic qualities. We like that word. I think that means we have hydrophobaphilia. But we digress. The bag. Buy it. Product features Durable, machine-washable polyester material (remove the reversible panel first) Shoulder strap adjusts up to 52″” long for a 24″” drop Not padded, but you can always add your own Dimensions: inside approx. 11″” tall x 15″” long x 4″” wide”

“We’ll be honest here. We hadn’t heard of Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock until that episode of The Big Bang Theory. You could say that prior to that day we were traditional roshamboists. When we heard Sheldon explain how it works and why it’s superior to your standard-grade RPS, we immediately paused the TV and went over to teh Intarwebs to do research. And indeed, we found the page by Sam Kass, the genius behind this version. His phenomenon must now be part of our life. However, none of us knew anything about this version of the game. So we ended up playing Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock to figure out who had to write the copy for this tote. It went a little something like this: Fearless Leader: “”One, two, three, SHOOT!”" Rules Lawyer: “”What’s that?”" Free Thinker: “”It’s a zombie.”" Rules Lawyer: “”There is no Zombie in Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock.”" Free Thinker: “”Braaaaaainsssss.”" Rules Lawyer: “”There are no Brains in Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock.”" Merchant Monkey: “”Lizard and Spock have Brainnnnnnnsssss.”" Second Merchant: “”Right. And Rock bludgeons Zombie into a small pile of blood, teeth, and hair.”" Free Thinker: “”Awwww.”" Fearless Leader: “”Are you two done? Okay. Again. One, two, three, SHOOT!”" Rules Lawyer: *raised eyebrow* Free Thinker: “”It’s the Large Hadron Collider.”" The symbols for Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock in a circle (with arrows for reference on what beats what) on a blue 100% cotton canvas tote. Bag measures 10″” x 12″” x 5″” with bottom gussets and a small inside zippered pocket. It’s small for a tote bag, but perfect for, say, your lunch and a book, your Kindle and some knitting, a small, very laid-back cat or an oversized ferret.”

“Geeks come in all shapes, sizes, and sexes. That’s right, boys – there are geek girls out here. They are legion, and they are, frankly, ticked off. They’ve gotten short shrift in geek circles for years. The truth is girls got game. They can code. They know how to solder, hack, and make. They’re smarter, more agile, and more talented in so many ways. If there was ever a geek girl revolt, there may be nothing the boys can do about it. So why is it, then, that there aren’t very many feminine laptop bags? They’re all some form of black or grey, and ballistic nylon or canvas. There’s nothing feminine about them at all. There should be something retro-chic, colorful, but practical… something that will carry your portable electric brain without looking like you just left the back room of a computer warehouse. So ThinkGeek designers partnered with the famous Tokyo Bay to design the OMGPWNIES Computer bag. Red like your rage, glossy and stylish. This bag was patterned off of the luggage carried by Air Nippon stewardesses. Very retrofuturistic. And it’s big enough to hold a 17 inch MacBook Pro with all the accessories, so you won’t have to scrimp on storage just to have something stylish. Made from durable polyvinyl, this bag will stand the test of time. Plus, if you don’t care to use this bag to carry your laptop, it makes a great weekender – big enough to carry your sundries plus a couple of quick changes of clothes for a quick trip to Milan or Majorca or Milliways. Features Red polyvinyl laptop bag Big enough for a 17″” Macbook Pro and all the accessories Dimensions: 15 1/2 inches by 11 inches x 4 inches Durable over-the-shoulder style straps Several lined zipper pockets on the inside to hold your smaller accessories”

Ever since its release in 1980, The Empire Strikes Back has fueled the dreams of geeks across the world. Considered by many to be the best of the Star Wars saga, it was the first film where we really learned what it took to be a Jedi. Sure Obi Wan taught us a little in A New Hope, but it wasn’t until we met Yoda that we truly realized how powerful the Force was and how hard it was to master. Yoda was the pinnacle of what a Jedi should be: mighty and humble, wise and peaceful. Even though he was tiny, we got glimpses of his immense power (really, I mean a whole X-Wing?!?) Once we saw Yoda, we all knew we wanted a Jedi master of our own – a Jedi master who would take us running in the woods, ride on our back, and teach us the ways of the Force. We tried strapping a cat to our back, but it wasn’t the same. A few months ago, our geeky hearts almost leapt out of our bodies when we saw this officially licensed backpack. Yoda…on our back…teaching us…and carrying our stuff inside him. Perfect! And, to make it even better, the straps are adjustable and sized for adults. All you need now is a dirty, sleeveless t-shirt and some khaki’s and you will be ready for your Jedi training to begin. You will be. You will be.

“In today’s modern world, with our massive array of personal electronics and other gadgets, we guys have to make a choice. Do we live down the ignominy of carrying a man-bag, or somehow live without the electronics that don’t fit into your pants pockets? Luckily, the choice isn’t nearly that bad – today’s modern man is no longer judged by his luggage. With the right bag, you can keep your manhood while carrying all your cool stuff. These canvas bags are big enough for a paperback book, digital camera, wallet, digital audio player, checkbook, camcorder, pens, two turtle-doves and a partridge in a freakin’ pear tree! But we have only scratched the surface of the coolness of these bags. Each one comes with a strap that further identifies you as a bad-ass. “”POLICE LINE – DO NOT CROSS”", “”DANGER”", or “”HIGH VOLTAGE”" are emblazoned on these tough canvas satchels. You choose what kind of bag identifies you. POLICE LINE – DO NOT CROSS: Could it be that you stole that from a crime-scene, making you a rough-and-ready criminal? HIGH VOLTAGE: Do you work around electricity all day as a master of dirty deeds – done dirt cheap? DANGER: Maybe you’re just a general toughy, and DANGER is all that needs saying? Whichever path you choose, be strong. Carry your stuff – man-bags are manly again.”

When Princess Leia Organa smuggled the Death Star plans off of her stricken starship, what did she use to carry them? That’s right – she used a large hulking astromech designated R2D2. The filthy droid was able to successfully complete its mission and deliver the plans to General Kenobi, though did so with no style or practicality whatsoever. If only the princess had a nice handbag! The right bag, matched to her wardrobe, would have been a fantastic addition to her ensemble. Hooked on her arm, her new purse could have not only carried Death Star plans, but also a blaster, light-saber, droid-recall unit, plus all the pins and clips necessary to keep her hair in place (no small feat in a galaxy far far away). Perhaps too late, ThinkGeek now has a consignment of Star Wars themed handbags, each design with iconic artwork and cool glittery vinyl trimwork along the sides. With 440 cubic inches of interior space, these bags have more than enough room for you to fit whatever you need, the next time you find yourself in a club, at the store, or in a scoundrel’s stock-light freighter somewhere around the ruins of Alderaan. Oh, if only Leia would have had a handbag instead of that hapless astromech… well, she probably still would have been captured, the plans retrieved, the rebels crushed, Luke Skywalker would never have discovered his Jedi heritage, and the Empire would have lasted easily another thousand years, but still — she would have looked fabulous! Features Vinyl Star Wars handbags Artwork from A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back Glittery exterior trim 11 inches by 8 inches by 5 inches internal dimensions Inner pouch for loose change and accessories

The trick to taking out Bowser in 8-4 is to just hang back, jump over his first fireball, dodge his hammer throws, and fireball spam his spiky ass. Easiest boss battle ever. Truth is, he’s not really as tough as he looks – that’s not even a real spiked shell on his back. We know the secret, and the secret will blow your mind. It is, in fact, a backpack. He’s really just a big lizard with some reflux issues (hence the fireballs). He bought that backpack from ThinkGeek, and has been running around giving our favorite italian plumber a hard time ever since. Inside his Spikepack, he keeps a healthy supply of mushrooms, hammers, and a small number of Bob-ombs. It’s a good thing the backpack is big – he can carry quite a lot of things. If you were to somehow get a hold of his bag, you could easily cram a stack of schoolbooks, a giant laptop, all your power supplies, and still have room for your Nintendo DS and every cartridge you own… just in case you have time between classes to crank out a few levels.   Features Large leather backpack Soft spiky points along the outside Large zippered interior pocket Deep exterior pockets for pens, and peripherals Spot clean only!

“Our power-hungry gadgets are screaming to get plugged in, and we dutifully oblige. What kind of power do these devices have over us that they demand our fealty? Are we to become slaves to the devices that connect us to the outside world? The answer is, obviously, yes. What’s more, we are only happy to sell our lives to these gadgets of ours. That said, there’s nothing that says we have to be literally chained to a wall. Yes, our gadgets need power to make it through the day, but there’s free power to be had just standing out in the middle of the field. It’s solar, man. Get with it! This gadget bag, for example, has a huge 8 by 12 inch super-efficient flexible panel built right in, capable of pushing up to 1000mA at 5.6v via a USB cable that snakes into the main compartment in full sun. If you’re not charging your gadgets directly, a 800mAh Li Ion battery acts as a buffer, soaking up the rays for later use. It’s designed to not just be another bag in your collection. This one “”piggybacks”" onto your existing bag. Straps and buckles keep the solar panel in place so you don’t have to give up your favorite carry-all. If, for example, you’d like to upgrade your Bag of Holding into something that extracts electrons from photon collisions, strap this bad-boy onto the front flap, and you’re good to go. Solar. It’s brilliant! Features Solar paneled gadgetbag for charging your portable gadgets Innovative “”piggyback”" design connects to your existing bag Turns full sun into 1000mA at 5.6 volts – enough to charge your iPhone with ease 800mAh Lithium Ion battery pack soaks up the excess for those cloudy days or total eclipses Two zippered pouches:Large: 8″” x 12″” – Big enough for an iPadSmall: 8″” x 5″” – Big enough for a Kindle Built-in channels for running USB cables between pouches”
