The opening paragraph of this pisses me off - "Do it now while you're single! No wife would ever let anyone decorate a house like this!" Fuck you, article; I want magnetic curtains.

Home Decor for Absolute Geeks.

Pssh. Whatever, I'm not EVEN a nerd (despite the recent Watchmen bump in my cred), I'm the girlfriend they're warning you about, and I'd totally want some of that stuff. Dude, who doesn't want a toast printer? TOAST. PRINTER. That's fantastic.

I mean, if nothing else, it stems from this weird idea in society that you should yoke yourself with someone who hates everything you enjoy. I'm sure that if you want a Han Solo carbonite desk, there's someone out there who will love you and get a matching Jaba the Hutt bean bag chair.

I know, why does it have to be the girlfriend who won't "let" you have it? That's douchey. Get a new girlfriend, yours is a bitch.

Ok, I'm not technically a nerd - though I have some tendencies - and I love the hell out of those curtains.

I know! I also like the "practice plant". Mostly because I kill things accidentally.

I AM a nerd! I also like the faucet that turns colors with the temperature!

I thought that was the nicest thing there too.

I don't really understand anything in that paragraph of text. It seemed like it started out saying you need cool things to make you a geek(good thing) and not a nerd(bad thing), but then it said you need to have these before you're married. So is the writer condemning them all anyway? More importantly, why can't I get a job writing?

I love them! I also dig the Lego S&P shakers.
