Gifts and treats I recommend
Sunnyland Farms

Find local professionals for pretty much anything.
Retro scratch-n-sniff Stickers
A stinky blast from the past.
Other fun things

A library of Enterprise ship 3D models you can virtually tour.
The Oeuvre
Fake horror book covers that Garth Marenghi could have written, if he were real.

AwYisser
An “Aw Yiss” comic generator. If this doesn’t make any sense to you then get your damn self over Kate Beaton’s Hark, a vagrant web comic site. She rules.

I like this guy’s style. His nostalgia is stuck on maximum overdrive and he blogs all about the 80s and 90s.
Slap Kirk
Help Captain Kirk out of his madness. By slapping him a lot.
Space Sword!
One of my favorite childhood toys. Sort of a Star Wars rip off, yet somehow even better.

Kick-ass playlists for every occasion and mood.
Yacht Rock web series
A web series that offers a humorous, fictional account of the history of Yacht Rock. I love it so much.
