Another April Fools' Day, another round of awesome ThinkGeek gags
Hold onto your chairs, folks, because it's April 1 and everything you see on the Internet today will be a damn lie. In some cases — as it is with ThinkGeek every year — that lie is admittedly amazing.
Take the above Angry Birds pork rinds for instance (complete with awesome vid over on ThinkGeek). Now you can enjoy those snorty-laughing pigs as the spoils of war. That's only the tip of the iceberg, though — we've collected our favorite ThinkGeek gags down below.
Click through the gallery below to see our favorites. You'll have to hunt down the rest for yourself! The only question now is which of this year's fake items will actually be turned into real products.

De-3D Cinema Glasses • This one pretty much explains itself: it turns 3D movies into "relaxing 2D" ones. Features "large senior citizen sizing" and "eliminates headaches and nausea associated with 3D movie viewing." Awesome.
Super 3DBoy iPhone Handheld • Tired of Nintendo peddling innovation over raw graphical power? The 3DS may boast a new trick, but even the likes of the iPhone sports prettier visuals. Now you get the best of both worlds, all you have to do is strap this unwieldy gizmo to your face.
Star Wars Lightsaber Popsicles • This wins our vote for the product most likely to be a real thing pretty soon. I mean, it wouldn't even be all that hard to pull off, yet we want a set of our own ASAP. Maybe it's the awesome hilts as popsicle sticks, or maybe it's because cherry red Sith sabers have always kind of looked delicious.
Minecraft USB Desktop Nether Portal • Let's face it, our lives are all full of crap we're never going to use or papers we'll never ever look at again. What to do with it all? Send it to the nether, of course! This clever Minecraft homage is USB-powered, to boot. Just don't go in there yourself. Trust me.
Playmobil Apple Store Playset • Genius bar? Check. Lines around the block? Mhm. A stage for Steve Jobs to preach to his adoring masses? You bet. Now you can relive all the smeared screens, smug tech support and shady dealings right in your living room! (You've made it this far, click here to see the rest of ThinkGeek's offerings.)
Bonsai Kitty Plush • It's a kitty. In a glass share. I'll be honest, I really just included this one to make you go "awww" or "nooo!" (Hopefully, "Nooo!")
