Geekdom Needs to Let Go of Black

So ThinkGeek sent me a lovely newsletter outlining some of its new offerings. One of the things that caught my eye was this Heroes inspired t-shirt.

And my immediate reaction is "Cool! Whip out the credit card!’

But it only comes in black.

But that is the geek colour of choice, you tell me. Well first, the art teacher in me tells you that black is a shade, not a colour, but I digress. I am a natural blond. I am very pale naturally. Black washes me out. I like bright, happy colours. Would it kill geek merchants to offer a few reds, purples, and blues?

I had the same problem when the Husband Unit wanted to order me Geek Inside.

Again, it only comes in black. We contacted Think Geek and begged for pretty colours. They have yet to respond.

Come on people! Colours don’t hurt! Let’s embrace them!
