Geek Apparel of the Week: Pac-Man Hoodie
So I have to go camping this weekend. It’s a long story, but yeah, I can’t get out of it, and yeah, I’m not particularly excited. I understand some people like the outdoors and nature and sleeping under the stars, but I tend to enjoy civilization with its mattresses and roofs and Xbox 360s. Right now, the forecast in Topless Robo-land is that it’ll be in the low 40s on Saturday night, which means I need some kind of a hoodie or something to keep me warm. I might just pick up the above Pac-Man hoodie, as it looks delightfully warm and should plainly indicate I’m a huge nerd who has no business camping. It’s $48 over at FredFlare. (Via GeekSugar)
