Gifts for Geeks: Gamepad Chopping Board

Just as serene monks find many different contributing factors to perfect peace, so there are as many factors into why this makes me so blissfully happy.

  1. The subheading on the listing is Chop Idol
  2. Firebox and Joseph Joseph have made a chopping board that looks like a NES controller
  3. The START and SELECT buttons now say slice and dice
  4. I think - THINK - my brother is going to get it for me for my birthday next month
The only flaw is that it's made from toughened glass. This is clearly a good thing, but I always end up wincing like a Victorian when chopping up veg on glass as it sounds like someone is punching me hard in the ears.

I will therefore probably use it for less violent chopping.

The Gamepad chopping board costs £14.99 from the inestimable Firebox

    Hurrah! Tweet photos when it arrives.

    Kat, I'm with you about the glass thing - *shudder* - but I do want this. Oh I'm torn
