Christmas Gifts for Geeks
Jingle bells are in the air and snow is just around the corner; it's the holiday season and you need to go gift shopping. But before you pummel your way through angry mothers and airheaded teenagers at the mall, you may want to prepare a list. And you've got that one person to shop for that you may or may not understand: the geek.
Being a geek has become something of a cool trend latelyfi game ever and being able to reference minor characters that appeared in the Mos Eisley cantina that deserved a larger part. It's embracing all things geek. Luckily, geekiness spreads over lots of different areas of interest, so there are plenty of options.
For the Gamer Geek
Gaming geeks can be a pretty hardcore group. They already have
the consoles they want and a game may be too obvious of a choice. The latter also not the best thing to get as your recipients are often purchasing new releases for themselves constantly, so you can never be too sure of what they do and don't have. You might be thinking, "If I don't buy them a console or a game, then there's nothing left to get!" But the amount of gaming merchandise outside those two categories is amazing, so here are some truly unique ideas.
For the Comic Geek
Comics are the oldest form of geekdom, and readers take their characters seriously. Their collections are a sense of pride and they'll argue for hours about which version of
horror buff, a romantic comedy addict, or something even more obscure, like a 1950's B movie aficionado. It's all about having a passion for the genre and the enthusiasm to talk about it incessantly. Embrace your movie geek by getting him or her some cool box sets or entertainment setups.
