New Year Resolutions at ThinkGeek

It's a new year, and it's time to make resolutions that we won't stick to. But in the spirit of the season, we conducted an informal poll around the office to find out what the geeks' resolutions are.

Check out some of the resolutions of the monkeys here at TG:

  • improve introversion skills
  • switch from Braaaaiinnnnsss to Diet Braaaaiinnnnsss
  • use Jedi skills for good instead of evil
  • grow a moustache
  • remember to wear pants to the office
  • plunder
  • give keynote at next macworld
  • cold fusion
  • void resolve() { sleep( 365 * 86400 ); resolve(); };
Now how's that for some serious goal-setting? We strive for excellence here at ThinkGeek World Headquarters, and it shows in our resolutions, dontcha think? So what are your resolutions? Tell us in the comments!

meaningless icon! On a completely unrelated note, I should endeavor this year to enclose URL's in href tags instead of just pasted the whole things as blog comments. Epikfayle.

meaningless icon! I usually don't make NY resolutions, but this year I made two. 1) Get in shape (yawn - I know, how original) 2) Not celebrate my wedding anniversary in 2009 - here's to my idiot ex getting his damn paperwork done! :D

meaningless icon! no more resolutions to take over the world? I'm *sooo* disappointed. I was looking forward to you guys loading up the USB (and wireless) rocket launches with poison tips and/or mini nukes!

meaningless icon! My new year's resolution... 2800 x 2100, a brightness of 1000 cd/m2 and a 1000:1 contrast ratio.

meaningless icon! yeah I'm way over on the other side plus i don't have any relevant experience maybe world domination is missing because they've secretly already done it

meaningless icon! I have a bunch of books on my shelf that I've yet to open. I think I'll choose three to have finished by the end of the year. Finding work would also be nice.

meaningless icon! I wish I could sleep every second of the year. My resolution is to improve my telekinetic skills. So far all I can do is make switches turn on and off but I can't quite move glasses of water.

meaningless icon! My resolution this year is to learn a new instrument. The Theremin!

meaningless icon! the same thing I do every year - continue my preparations for the imminent robot uprising.

meaningless icon! Mine is to work while at work and not read Think Geeks blog and fortunes while at work. :P

meaningless icon! Yeah, I'm going with the Diet Braaaaiiins myself. The regular still hasn't tasted the same after that whole "New Braaaiiins" crap.

meaningless icon! You should save the moustache for 'Movember' - an international dedication of November to growing moustaches in honor of men's health awareness (particularly prostate disease).

meaningless icon! Braaaaaiiinnnss Light. Great Taste, Less Filling! Oooh, new shirt idea! You can send the check to...

meaningless icon! This year has started out fairly horrible...I haven't worked since the 29th of December because of an injury...my resolution is to get my surgery done and hie meself back to work...I miss it. Also, cook more healthy meals and get the spousal unit off the couch, he's enjoying retirement too much.
