Tetris is a time-honored procrastination technique that people will commonly employ while studying for tests or working on Mashable articles. But what was once a time-wasting video game is now a time-wasting desk lamp that you can play with.

The Tetris lamp is probably the most fun you've ever had with a lamp, short of putting a lampshade on your head. Plug the line block into the wall and turn it on. Once you turn it on and it starts glowing, you can take the other non-lit pieces and watch them light up as soon as they stack on top of each other. As per the nature of any Tetris game, the pieces can be stacked in any combination, so rearranging your lamps might become your new favorite addiction. One set comes with one of each different block, but you can combine multiple sets and create an entire glowing Tetris wall.
