With Christmas readily approaching, an interesting alternative gift option is ThinkGeek. The site bills itself as "Stuff for Smart Masses" and while it does have some nerdy gifts (like a Princess Leia poster), it also has some cool gag stuff like the personal soundtrack t-shirt.

This amazing new wearable audio solution features a working speaker embedded into the front of the shirt and can play music or sound effects appropriate for any situation. It's just like starring in your own movie.

So basically, now when someone says something stupid you can hit a button and cue a record scratch. There also more reasonable gifts like military strength flash drives, a watch that also works as a flash drive, and portable cell phone chargers so you don't have to scramble for an outlet when you're on the road.
