I don't know about you guys, but I think some of these are pretty sweet.

 

To get them, you're supposed to be in the IT industry (or a student I think), have a business email, and some other company info, as well as get hassled about signing up for a trial of some of their software. I don't think any of this is actually necessary, I'm sure you can just bull shit your way through it and still get them.

I personally went for the #4 choice, the '404 error' ones. Let me know what you guys choose. Enjoy your socks!

 

(I added the poll just for fun :) )

4, 5 and 12 are clearly the best

3 is also pretty cool
10 is hilarious :D

Number 10 is brilliant.

Yeah, I'm debating whether to get that or #6 to get shipped to my other address...

I'm gonna order a pair of Number 3, and pretend that when it gets here, it was just a normal package. I'm gonna pretend nobody cares.

Got a pair. I actually count as an IT Consultant and the business I work at was actually known on that site.

 

So I may be the only person on here who gets a legit pair.

I work in the IT industry, so mine is mostly legit. :)

I imagine it depends on how good of a BS job you do, I'd imagine as long as you make it seem legit it will work...

it signed me up for sophos cloud. HOW DO I DEACTIVATE 

Space Journal #1: So Apparently i  was dropped on the moon like i'm a mars rover, in a matter of hours i have found the transformers on the dark side of the moon. Turns out its not that dark since dem robots are filled with lights, i waved hi to the Russians on the space station, turns out all those stories about space finding humans instead of the other way around is true(soviet Russia joke). They threw me some Heineken beer and I've been sitting staring at the people of this forum and earth since.

As long as you didn't give any of your credit card info or Paypal or anything like that, just let the trial run out and ignore it.

Got my socks today! 404 Error, feet not found  :P

 

They came wrapped in a little piece of yarn and everything. Don't have time to take pics unfortunately as I'm on my way out the door, but they're pretty nice!
