It is hard not to like these social media-inspired Thumbs-Up Cuff Links. Created by the online retailer ThinkGeek, the Facebook ‘Like’ symbol was transformed into a pair of geek-chic cuff links. These accessories will sure add a dash of fun to any dress shirt.
This product becomes even more hilarious when reading the ThinkGeek website’s pun-filled characterization of the men’s accessories. The site describes the cuff-links as, “a subtle, not in-your-Face way of throwing the Book at the establishment. It won’t earn you a place on the Wall of fame or even in the Timeline of history, but your more observant friends will notice your Updated Status symbol.”
The Thumbs-Up Cuff Links are available to purchase for the price of just $9.99 US and are sure to get some likes and perhaps a poke or two.
