How’s this for an easy way to summon up a Halloween costume with very limited work? Just get a hoodie in the style of your favourite Star Wars anti-hero. Behold! The Boba Fett hoodie! In fact, Halloween? Who needs that. Surely the hoodie is good enough for every day wear? This can be worn to […]
Halloween costume of class: A female Snape’s coat
Hurray for Snape. No, really, hurray for Snape. Let’s face it; you might not be able to dress up as Snape for Halloween but I bet you know a sexy geek who might be able to! Let’s take a minute to ponder this “Female Snape Coat” from Evening Arwen. Sure; there are problems. There can’t […]
Is this link too complex?
For some sites it can be important to have a short and snappy domain name. Long and complex URLs are also out; better to hide your technology, better for branding on social media (prone to URL shortening) and looks less spammy. So, although this looks nice – I have to ask whether this link is […]
Space Invaders sofa
Fancy some retro alien action in your living room? Igor Chak has rather interesting looking couch that’s available for only a limited period of time. It’s a space invader couch. However, rather than floating around by your ceiling dropping laser bombs on to you – it should remain safely on the floor. It may even […]
Are these Portal socks sexy?
Here’s a question to ponder tonight. Are these Portal 2 long fall socks sexy? Ignore the skirt. Focus on the socks. Ask yourself these questions. Are they quirky? Are they cute? Are they geeky? Perhaps; yes, yes and yes. The real debate is – are they sexy? Go, go, shopping!

There’s even an Axe Cop section. We plotted – what might Popfunk be able to offer that might interest our savvy […]
Tardis cufflinks
The blog Asciimation has the tagline, “I’d rather live in a world full of eccentric thinkers than one full of unthinking consumers”. That’s an excellent way to catch my interest. Another good way to do that is to provide a step-by-step guide on making your set of Tardis cufflinks. Ta-da! I highly recommend, at the […]
The Tardis corset in action
Mayfaire Moon is a site that makes costumes and corsetry. This week they’ve had some great success when a Tardis corset they made zoomed around the blogs. You may have already seen the picture below. What Mayfaire Moon have wisely done is published some pictures of the corset being modelled by her new owner. We have some […]
Game Boy swimsuit
This post had to happen. In one corner we have the Game Boy collection with the Gameboy dresses and the Nintendo bra. In the other corner we have the Black Milk collection of swimsuits that feature Pac-man, C3PO, R2-D2 and Vadar. The result? The Game Boy swimsuit. Okay; it’s just a prototype… I wonder if […]
Star Trek nipple tassels
It’s alright to discuss nipple tassels on a geek blog if the context is burlesque. We score geek points for suggesting that “pasties” is a more appropriate word than tassels too… after all, there are no dangly bits here. We certainly score geek points if we bring Star Trek into the burlesque pasties equation. That’s […]
