Get a sound-activated equalizer shirt for $17
I can't decide if this is so geeky, it's awesome, or so geeky, it's a social disaster waiting to happen. On the other hand, it's an instant Halloween costume--for a song (get it?).
Update: Dillyeo is already sold out of the shirt, but eagle-eyed reader pigmond found an even better deal: $11.67 shipped from DealExtreme!
Geek meets chic? Um, no. But if you're in the market for a simple Halloween costume or you're hip enough to pull off wearing this to a club or party, Dillyeo has a sound-activated equalizer T-shirt for $11.97, plus $5 for shipping.
Maybe you've seen this before: it's the same shirt ThinkGeek has been selling for $39.99. Check out the video to see it in action. (Note: The accompanying Kanye West song may have a few NSFW lyrics.)
Dillyeo is one of those deal-a-day sites, and this one ends around 10 p.m. ET tonight.
The hand-wash-only shirt is available only in X-large size, but Dillyeo says they run small, so if you normally wear a large, you should be good to go.
I'll cop to owning the similar Wi-Fi detector shirt (on sale at ThinkGeek for $19.99, FYI), which I wore a couple years ago as part of my "tech support" Halloween costume. (It rocked.)
Like that shirt, the equalizer is fun, a conversation piece, and a way to stand out in a crowd--and it's on sale for the same price as a nonanimated, nonbattery-operated shirt. What's not to like?
