It All Started With the Big Bang--!

Our whole universe was in a hot, dense state. Then nearly fourteen hours ago, I started searching…wait.
Not the right lyrics.

Doesn’t change the fact that I shop for my holiday gifts earlier than most. I’m already searching through finds for the Big Bang Theory fans I know and love, seriously! If you have a hardcore fan in you’re life, you know how much a prop—from their favorite TV show!—would mean to them this year. When in doubt, pull a Mean Girls: Sheldon bought the poster hanging in his kitchen, so I bought the poster hanging in his kitchen.

Which, if you were curious, is an actual wholesale item. The robot chef Petre Devros, one of two staples on the Big Bang Theory set, could be hanging in your kitchen too as soon as the first snow…alongside the cereal boxes sorted by fiber content. Don’t reach for those on “french toast day.” Think about it like this: there isn’t a Sheldon in the world that tolerates change from what feels familiar. The poster may be a backdrop, but it’s familiar, and won’t be going anywhere anytime soon.

The Captain Future poster is its companion, for all the same reasons. Moving this poster out of the corner would be like turning the cushion on Sheldon’s spot. It just doesn’t feel right.

One more highlight—to display on your mantel, where you keep your keys, or to hoard in your room until someone does something you don’t like—would of course be the Roommate Agreement. Notarized and sub-sectioned, all you need is incentive and a sneaky approach to get your housemate crossing the T’s and dotting the I’s, whether they’ve read everything or not. Sure, it’s not LIKELY you’ll evoke the Body Snatchers Clause, or the Zombie Clause, but what’s a Sheldon—or Big Bang Theory viewer—if not prepared?

More details to come in the future…and not because I’ve suddenly invented a time machine. Check some items yourself on the shop page!
