New Nerdiest Thing Ever: Belt Sword
The sword which is also a belt!
Okay, here’s a quick but very important test. Answer truthfully.
1) Are you considering buying a Belt Sword after watching the above video?
2) Even if I told you it cost $150?
2) If not, is it because you already own one?
3) Do you honestly think a sword that can be tied around your waist would do you any good whatsoever in any kind of actual altercation?
4) Are you the dude in the video?
If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, you are a huge fucking nerd. That is all. (Via Geekologie)
