For me, I'm just a sucker for collectibles, especially geeky plushies. So, I like the gophers because they are cute and I'm a collector of silly things.

Plushies are in no way useful and I'm trying to be an adult 😄 which is why for dev merch for myself I think I'd prefer something I can use: shirt, mug (although I currently have too many of those)...
I like dev jokes/references, I'd love to find more purple clothes (or purple things, in general), and the clothes would have to suit my hippy frame. Useful things (with pretty colours or nice images/logos or fun texts) could be lanyards, notebooks... oh, reflectors!

Stickers are nice but I think I'd perhaps prefer badges (for attaching to clothes/bags) for improved re-use.
