Once a week [for three weeks now] we’ve given you the weekly segment: Stuff You Didn’t Know You Needed (or SYDKYN!) This week is no exception and we’ve dig dug deep. We know it’s June and thought you might want to get a head start on All Hallows Eve this year. You’re thinking to yourself right now, “Boy, I wish I had a cool retro-arcade costume with a carefully placed joystick so I could attract the ladies toward my netherregions …” Oh no…

As you sit in your basement pounding away on your keyboard and yelling at your level 20 character, you realize that it might be easier to play if you could see all of the scribblings you’ve retained to help you in your quest of total domination. “Gosh,” you say to yourself, “…wouldn’t it be cool if I had something to provide a clear view on my otherwise unreadable handwriting?” That blank stare gradually turns to a cartoon bubble floating above your head with a dimly lit bulb illuminating the path to your eventual victory.

Check the Happy Sign Store on ebay! They have everything from Mario Brothers to X-Files.
