The Only Coasters for the Geeky Guy

Dec 19 2006, 1:00pm CST | by Shane McGlaun

There is something inherent in my male DNA that keeps me from using coasters. I don’t know why, even at restaurants I won’t use the little paper coasters they hurl at me Ninja style.

My wife thinks I am just too lazy to use a coaster, it’s not lazy it’s economy of motion… seriously. At any rate, I might actually use this set of coasters that are made from real circuit boards. Each set of six coasters have different patterns and colors and are held inside a tin can topped with a circuit board cut out as well. The coasters measure 3.75” in diameter.These things look really cool and I just might bring myself to use them. They would make a nice addition to my messy desk and keep my ever present gigantic cup of Coke from sweating all over my fancy carbon fiber mouse pad. These coasters are a man's coaster, albeit a geeky man's coaster. Geeky is as geeky does I always say. Image via ThinkGeek.
