Wacky Intellectual Gifts are thoughtful presents for the thinking man and woman. Clever watches, mugs, toys, put a witty spin on the intellectual. Whether interested in literature, politics, psychology, arts, science, or current events, educated and academic-minded friends will get a kick out of these quirky gifts
From watches with Charlie Chaplin’s Little Tramp caught in the gears to Great American Drinker shot glasses, this varied collection is sure to pique interest. The Henry VIII Disappearing Wives mug is one of the best gifts you can give a history major, though if she’s your wife, we ask that you think twice before giving it to her. We wouldn’t want her to think it’s a Freudian slip. If she gets upset, reassure her with a bottle of Extra Strength Denial Pills.
Tired of your psychology friends psychoanalyzing you all the time? Turn the tables and get them a gift they would never dream of - a parachuting Freud toy, ready to dive right in to their suppressed pasts.
On the fictional end, (not that many of Freud’s fanciful theories don’t seem fictional now), we offer Disappearing Tardis Mugs for Doctor Who fans to sip from as they disappear into a good episode. Put coffee in and the Tradis disappears from London on one side of the mug and reappears on the other side.
Other clever inventions are just great ideas. Natural Sunlight Lamps can actually improve some people’s moods, reduce eyestrain, and bring the glow of sunlight to long winter days. Handheld Sudoku games are fun way to stimulate the brain on plane rides and road trips (and don’t forget a Shiatsu To Go portable massage pillow to keep you feeling fresh and relaxed).
For any intellectual with a sense of fun, there’s sure to be a unique gift here to surprise and charm.
