I so need to get me one of these.

ThinkGeek :: There’s no place like 127.0.0.1 Door/Floor mat

Tired of people stepping all over you? Well take your frustrations out by stepping all over these choice door/floor mats. Adorned with the peculiar ‘There’s No Place Like 127.0.0.1’ phrase, consider them your own personal wormholes to a place where users invented clue and upper management gets outsourced. Just step on ‘em, click heels twice, and off you go! Perfect for both outdoor home and indoor office use alike, so that makes them extra tastylicious!

It’s hard to come up with geek jokes that get any geekier. I’ll probably have to explain it to my mom. It would make for a good replacement of my old doormat which is starting to seriously show its age.

What does my current doormat say? It reads: “Hi! I’m Mat!”

Okay, I’ll be the first to openly say… I don’t get it. I thought I got it, but I think after all that I don’t.  oh oh

127.0.0.1 is a networking address for “localhost” or, in other words, “home.”

Heh, that reminds me the door mat which I got back when I was working tech support.

“Please stay on the mat.  Your visit is very important to us.  Your knock will be answered in the order in which it was received.”

That’s a good one too. I need more doors to put mats in front of.

Ours says: “Ring the bell and win a free cat!”. We also bought one for my brother-in-law that says “Go Away!”.
