1. Pobody’s Nerfect Shirt
Right now, The Good Place has a decidedly medium fanbase. But it is growing, and with the recent announcement of a season three pickup, the NBC comedy doesn’t seem to be slowing down any time soon. Especially since it has such great gift possibilities.
Created by Parks and Rec genius Mike Schur, The Good Place has cranked out some iconic moments already. On top of that, they’ve managed to find easy substitutes for cursing that are becoming conversational norms. But aside from reviving NSYNC’s “Digital Get Down,” the best moment came from the show’s anti-hero, Eleanor. As she puts it, “Pobody’s Nerfect.”
It is admittedly an odd phrase. But delivered with Kristen Bell’s deadpan, it became legendary. Even better, it spawned the creation of a small “Pobody’s Nerfect” fashion line. It’s a goofy way to show confidence, and it’s impossible not to be confident while rocking a shirt with Kristen Bell’s face on it.
As T-shirts go, it’s actually pretty affordable. Through Redbubble, it’s just over $20. Unfortunately it’s not the exact design as seen on the shirts in the show, but it’s just as good. For those who are sticklers on the details, there’s always the option to find an alternate company and just make the shirt, but that can be both time-consuming and hard.
The shirt is also probably much easier than hunting down a giant pencil that says “Lordy Lordy I’m over 40,” but the Internet is an interesting place. With a guaranteed third season, the writers over at The Good Place are probably cooking up new jokes already, so this list could get longer.
So, headed into the holidays this year, shopping should be a bit easier with this gift guide.
