Normally we'd shy away from readers sending in glamor shots, but reader Tanya is actually showing off the Nintendo scarf that she reportedly made by hand. The full thing measures 94.5 inches (approximately 7.8 feet) long and either 4.5 or 6 inches wide, depending on if you measure the mushroom or star. Check out the highlights for today:

^^ Sorry, each one of those deserved its own post. Though I'm guessing the latter won't last long. But it was worth it.

I'd love to blame this behavior on video games or the internet if I believed it had anything to do with anything other than pure social inadequacy.

I'm surprised and perhaps a little bit disappointed no one's gone down the decidedly filthy path of "I wish I could penetrate your star with my mushroom enhanced..." and so forth.
Just because I want to be different, the scarf sucks and you're ugly.

Ok, I totally didn't intend that to be a glamour shot. Anyway, I'm Tanya, the one who made the scarf. For those of you interested, click on the link that says "Nintendo Scarf" on the original posting by Joystiq. I know a couple of you asked about it. The measurements are correct, I made it long so that it can be wrapped around your neck. If someone is interested in a shorter one, just let me know! My XBOX Live and PS3 gamertag is beatboxtaun. Hit me up!

wow ... geeks in heat. I have to admit "I'd hit that so hard whoever could pull me out would become the King of England" made me LOL. I nominate that for funniest sentence of '08. And now, back to nerds in heat.

It's hard to tell in that light, but she looks a bit like Kristen Bell.

whoever buys it is just gonna smell it, not wear it.

Quite a good job there.
Whoever buys it, I'd be careful with it as it looks like it may be fragile in the area where the star connects to the red mushroom due to it being small.
But then, what do I know about crocheting/knitting. :P
