Geek Apparel of the Week: Death Adventure and Bounty Totem
 |
?? Skulls are badass. A skull with a lightning bolt-shaped crack and wearing Harry Potter glasses? Still badass, and it makes the line “Death is but the next great adventure” — which is apparently in one of the books? — extra badass. At any rate, this shirt is $10 at Ript, for today only.

?? I just got introduced to the Brinkerhoff nerd shirts at Red Bubble, but there’s a lot of designs I like. My favorite, though, is definitely this adorable totem pole of bounty hunters. So cute! It’s $24 here.

Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others.

Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
