Wi-Fi Hotspot-Spotting T-Shirt Will Not Get You Dates
As most of my friends know, I’m a total geek with it comes to technology wearables but sometimes even I, the T-shirt King just has to say no.
The new Wi-Fi detecting T-shirt from ThinkGeek may help you find a Wi-Fi hotspot, but I think Dr. Love would give it a serious thumbs down.
Black lights had their day, so did glow-in-the-dark sneakers but a T-shirt that begins to glow as you approach a Wi-Fi hotspot? Useful? Um. Maybe.
It should come with a meter that shows you how likely you are to get a date with anyone in eyesight of the T-shirt. The brighter the Wi-Fi signal on your shirt, the less likely you are to get a date.
If you think all those stares from the Starbucks barista are because you’re sexy, think again.
Walking around town, I suppose one could live with the giggles and snickers, depending on your level of self-consciousness.
But the negative effect would be amplified in any social situation, especially a bar or party where Wi-Fi signals might be leaking in and lighting up your chest.
Nothing says “I’m Hip” like a T-shirt that can signal certain types of radiation nearby.
ThinkGeek should probably recommend that this T-shirt not be worn at airports. You never know what kind of mood those TSA security guards will be in…
Oh and encase you were wondering, my preferred size is XXL ![]()

I dunno, it’s kind of like having the BatSignal on your chest. Girls dig Batman.
