Back when they were cool ThinkGeek would sell the Annoy-o-tron, which just randomly made a loud beep.
They also had one that made creepy sounds. I had one set to a child laughing in the air vents in a creepy hallway with flickering lights in an old church building.
It was awesome.
Pretty sure I have one of these kicking around somewhere
what happened to thinkgeek?
They were bought and basically no longer exist. Hot Topic was going to buy them but then GameStop came in with a higher offer. For a while they launched ThinkGeek retail stores in shopping malls but eventually shut them all down and now they basically only exist as some tchotchkes in GameStop stores. Even the website just seems to redirect to the main GameStop page now, not their “store” within the GameStop webstore.
Enshittification.
