Zaea: I can actually see this being worn by an employee of a hipster California pizza place. It wouldn’t work in New York because the slice would cover half her face. And In Chicago It would be so thick it would give her a neck injury. Although, in Cali it would probobly have organic chicken and artichoke hearts instead of pepperoni.
Riz: don’t get me wrong, I’d kill for a nice slice of grilled chicken and artichoke with Alfredo sauce right now. Or anything from Geno’s East, or anything else from Chi Town. If you put some love into it Pizza is one of the few foods you can’t fuck up. (read into that what you will.)
Screw you, that’s Zoe Deschanel! SHE is the kooky wacky one who wears pizza on her hair. She’s so offbeat and quirky, she makes me feel like I am in love with an archetype!
Ha! I showed that creepy aneros commercial on youporn to a guy friend of mine and he laughed so hard that had he been wearing one it would have dented my living room wall.
Sorry British hipster (Britster!) but pizza on hair and ESPECIALLY hair on pizza should not be a “Thing”. Please don’t make me start hating pizza. Or hair.
I always thought it was “Donatello’s dust machine.” And yeah, I could see him inventing something to create more dust so his Roomba would have more to do.
Wow, you’re never going to believe this but I read the title as “Why did the sad hipster burn her mouth?”…and I kept reading it as that until I looked more closely.
I think this is the same girl who I saw last week at Borders… she was fighting her male hipster friend over a clearance box set of “My Two Dads”, but ultimately decided that she’d hold out and see if there was a DVD set of “Perfect Strangers” somewhere in the store.
Neither of which appeared to be old enough to have ever actually seen either show…
I know! I’ve long believed the first ember of my now flaming bitchery began in daycare when as the only girl in a group of boys I was forced to play April.
I, too, always loved Donatello the most. I don’t know why. I’d always unscrew the handles to my mother’s brooms and subsequently use them to beat the crap out of everything in sight. (I mean, trees, rocks, etc. Not like raccoons and birds.) She would always get pissed and so she finally bought a broom with a handle that didn’t unscrew. So I sawed it off. /boringchildhoodmemories
At least she has a confident smile on her face; it’s a good photo for something questionable. It’s not like the one that spurred the infamous “ROMPER ROOM!!!!” butthurt. But still…pizza? A tiny bit of me thinks it’s actually kinda cute, but overall it’s just strange.
Hipsters make my brain hurt. I despised them long before it was cool to despise them, though. You hadn’t even heard of them when I started hating them.
My love of nerds MUST have started with Donatello. But that was before being a nerd was so cool. Does that make my favorite turtle a hipster? (I might have to mentally divorce him….)
I’d make one myself if I wouldn’t look totally ridiculous wearing it. Maybe if I wore it like a sweatband with the pizza right in the middle of my forehead…..
She looks like Katy Perry and Zooey Deschanel had a baby. With pizza on her head. And is it just me or does it look like that’s not her arm and hand? It looks like someone’s putting their hand on her shoulder. “Bitch, sit yo pizza-wearin’ ass down!”
The seller advises the wearer to wear it vertically. Stupid twit. Wear it vertically and all the toppings slide into your ear! And trust me, you do NOT want hot cheese and pepperoni in your ear canal. It could be worse, though. Thank God there are no anchovies!
If you were to wear both together, and maybe some eau de pepperoni…some fat dude would try to eat you. I guess it wouldnt be cannibalism though. He would just be tried for mental confusion.
As I described to my mother: Bette Davis plays a fat frumpy spinster who has to care for her aging bitter mother. She has a nervous breakdown and goes to a sanitarium where she loses weight and gets her hair done and comes out looking like Bette Davis.
(At this point my mother says “I assume that’s supposed to be an improvement.”)
It’s famous for the line at the end, “why ask for the moon when we have the stars.”
Not only is that the stupidest duckface I’ve ever seen, but who would want to walk around looking like you have lollipops stuck in your hair? Isn’t that a look people actively avoid by not sticking sweets in their hair?
But here’s the thing: That shit will sell. It doesn’t look god awfully bad, and the hipsters will love it. They sell shit like this at hot topic. I mean, this girl is smart to be making it for cheaper, and selling it. I’d be upset if she was claiming it was high art or something, but it’s just some god damn cutesy hair clips.
I know the feeling, emalineisabear. I wear weird headbands every day and if I wasn’t fat I would LOVE it. Pizza is seriously my favorite food. This may be directly proportional to my fatness.
I love this. I mean LOVE. I love the pizza the most; but I’m in hot freaky love with the entire yarn food on the head concept. If wearing knitted foods in my hair is wrong, I don’t wanna be right.
I see that “Now, Voyager” is the shop name, but all I can think of is Star Trek. I imagine Janeway scowling at this photo and saying, “What the shit is this?”
In defense of the knitted food barrettes, knitted and crocheted food is a big hot thing right now. I am not cute or hip enough to wear the stuff I make but my little nieces are lucky enough to get all kinds of crocheted things and they love them. The one who can talk is always demanding something new-last time it was eyeballs-yes of course I made them.
if you take a culture that happened, say, a hundred years ago, then make the whole thing into a painting, then make a litho of the painting, then take a photo of the litho, then take a photo of the photo, then take a photo of the photo of the photo, then take a photo of the photo of the photo of the photo, then take it to kinko’s, say, twenty years ago, twenty five years ago, & xerox it, then keep going there every single day from then to now & do the same thing, THEN you will get an idea of the depth & consistency of the world of hipsters. period. end of sentence, except to add that they couldnt even come up w/ a name for their own fucking culture, they had to borrow–appropriate, steal–the name of an older one. that they barely know existed. that they do not understand. of course.
English pizza is generally terrible. Aside from the proper Italian-type pizza, which you can get some places in England, generally the best pizza you can get in the country is Dominos. Which is depressing.
Is it still the old Domino’s? They upgraded the pizza here in the States, and ran commercials talking about what a nasty piece of cardboard flavorless crap their old pizza was.
I’m pretty sure it’s the upgraded pizza, as it’s thoroughly adequate in all respects. Not good, but at least it’s better than the crap they call pizza in this country. I don’t know what to call it, but if the crust comes pre-made from your freezer, and the sauce is unseasoned pureed tomatoes, I’m pretty sure it’s not really pizza.
I just want to know what the hell this has to do with Now, Voyager. Unless she has it confused with Mystic Pizza. I mean, the first one is a 1940s film about a repressed woman finding her independence and happiness, and the other is a 1980s movie about a bunch of teenage waitresses. But, I guess they both have women in them, so it’s easy to get them mixed up.
I looked at her shop. OK, I admit it…I actually like her stuff. And I have a lot of friends who do burlesque, and they would love stuff like this. So I’m giving this one a pass; this would be perfect for a burly-q dancer doing a pizza-themed routine, like a sexy delivery gal. (And the butterflies and flowers and straw hats in the shop are kinda sweet, I think.) OK, so this may not be something to wear to the grocery store, but there are contexts where this would be most appropriate.
I also looked at her shop…and yes, even after calling the lollypops silly and insulting one of the duckfaces she made, I agree with you. She looks like she’s having a ball, and a lot of her stuff is adorable (I love the butterflies). I hope she does well.
I just ate pizza with fake eyelashes on, but it wasn’t to try to sell the pizza. I paid for that shit. I was busy taking gyaro photos. I’m not sorry that I’m not kidding.
Own section? Log in info? But I forget my password from time to time! I have to guess my was through ALL my passwords to find the right one. EVERY TIME.
Wait a minute—this gal is definitely not a hipster. For one thing, she’s having way too much fun and doesn’t appear to be sagging under the crushing weight of her own superiority. Also, her hair is not only brushed but also quite nicely styled. And she’s wearing things that don’t look like they were dragged out of the trunk of an old Buick that she came across on the side of the road while hitchhiking to Bonnaroo. Trust me—I live within spitting distance of Etsy’s Brooklyn headquarters. I know my hipsters.
Also I actually really like her shop! I think the accessories could be really cute in the right context, they look well made/designed, the photos are good, most of her stuff is around $7-15 which seems really reasonable considering that fact that people are peddling rusty pails for a hundred bucks, her descriptions aren’t self-indulgent or full of whimsicle nonsense, and she freely describes her stuff as “silliness for your hair” . . . so yes, Like!
She kind of looks rockabilly to me….. but maybe this hick town where they worship Glen Danzig and think Betty Blowtorch is a goddess has warped my fragile mind.
Oh my gosh, I know this brand! I met one of the girls who works with them at an event recently, and they gave us some of their hair accessories to wear in the fashion show! Nice girls, they have some neat accessories too, I had a pretty little butterfly clip to wear, I saw they had some little ships too.
August 8, 2011 at 6:08 pm
lololol
August 8, 2011 at 6:09 pm
Seriously though, crocheted pizza?
August 8, 2011 at 6:09 pm
It’s less greasy that way.
August 8, 2011 at 6:12 pm
I can’t wrap my head around having a piece of pizza as a hair accessory, and I’m one of those fuckers that wears fake dreadlocks.
August 8, 2011 at 8:26 pm
Zaea: I can actually see this being worn by an employee of a hipster California pizza place. It wouldn’t work in New York because the slice would cover half her face.

August 8, 2011 at 8:28 pm
Hey, artichoke hearts are delicious… even on pizza.
August 8, 2011 at 9:08 pm
Riz: don’t get me wrong, I’d kill for a nice slice of grilled chicken and artichoke with Alfredo sauce right now. Or anything from Geno’s East, or anything else from Chi Town. If you put some love into it Pizza is one of the few foods you can’t fuck up. (read into that what you will.)
August 8, 2011 at 6:13 pm
It’s actually knitted.
August 8, 2011 at 6:27 pm
Well that’s quite normal then.
August 8, 2011 at 7:00 pm
Even my hipster fiance laughed at that hipster joke.
August 8, 2011 at 8:05 pm
I can’t believe you’re marrying one!
What did your family say???
August 8, 2011 at 9:31 pm
I love that joke.
August 9, 2011 at 2:49 am
I know this is terrible, but if I could pull off a headband, I would wear the fuck out of that supreme knitwear.
Cowabunga indeed.
August 8, 2011 at 6:09 pm
Why ask for the moon, when we have the, um, whatever the hell that is…
August 9, 2011 at 11:24 am
Finally! A Now Voyager reference! Light my ciggie for me, Paul…
August 8, 2011 at 6:09 pm
This isn’t the first time food has been thrown at Katy Perry.
August 8, 2011 at 6:10 pm
Screw you, that’s Zoe Deschanel! SHE is the kooky wacky one who wears pizza on her hair. She’s so offbeat and quirky, she makes me feel like I am in love with an archetype!
August 8, 2011 at 6:26 pm
Nor should it be the last.
August 8, 2011 at 6:09 pm
Additional toppings extra.
August 8, 2011 at 6:09 pm
OMG yes, I LOL so hard.
August 8, 2011 at 6:38 pm
Same here. I think it’s the all caps that really gets to me for some reason.
August 8, 2011 at 6:10 pm
i just don’t even know anymore
August 8, 2011 at 6:10 pm
At least there are no anchovies….
August 8, 2011 at 6:11 pm
jinx
August 8, 2011 at 6:11 pm
That’s for the matching thong.
August 8, 2011 at 6:28 pm
If I could like this a thousand times, I would. Thank you for the much-needed juvenile laugh.
August 8, 2011 at 6:32 pm
August 8, 2011 at 6:10 pm
no anchovies of course.
August 8, 2011 at 6:47 pm
But she has shrimp in another listing…
August 8, 2011 at 6:58 pm
Complete with duckface–and the prawn even has a moustache!!
August 8, 2011 at 7:40 pm
shrimp or crocheted prostate massager?
August 22, 2011 at 8:12 pm
Ha! I showed that creepy aneros commercial on youporn to a guy friend of mine and he laughed so hard that had he been wearing one it would have dented my living room wall.
August 8, 2011 at 7:44 pm
nice shell phone.
August 8, 2011 at 7:55 pm
That’s not a shrimp, that’s the alien creature who commands her to make these things crawled out of her head.
I know, I know, Dax and the symbiant were on Deep Space Nine, not Voyager.
August 8, 2011 at 8:10 pm
That little invertebrate is cute
…just not as a hair accessory.
August 8, 2011 at 9:59 pm
It looks like a big pink sperm, sort of.
August 9, 2011 at 2:03 am
For GOD SAKES, SOMEONE HAND HER A NAPKIN!
August 8, 2011 at 8:14 pm
August 8, 2011 at 8:16 pm
Oh, hey, Kitten Tears: (OT, belongs somewhere else)…I still insist on having my shrimp deveined. #whitewhine
August 9, 2011 at 2:44 pm
And that idea she got when she passed out in her shrimp cocktail at the Red Lobster.
August 8, 2011 at 6:11 pm
Sorry British hipster (Britster!) but pizza on hair and ESPECIALLY hair on pizza should not be a “Thing”. Please don’t make me start hating pizza. Or hair.
August 9, 2011 at 5:34 am
British hipsters are called “Dickheads”…No joke…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_5uVdy5YmA
August 10, 2011 at 1:48 am
Well…they don’t call themselves that I don’t think.
August 8, 2011 at 6:11 pm
Stupid hipster doesn’t even know her ninja turtles. Michaelangelo was the one who was obsessed with pizza.
August 8, 2011 at 6:18 pm
But Donatella Versace is orange, greasy and Italian just like a pizza, so I can see where they’d get confused.
August 8, 2011 at 6:24 pm
August 8, 2011 at 9:52 pm
Comment of the day!!!
August 8, 2011 at 6:20 pm
Thank you! Donatello, um, “does” machines.
*giggles every stupid time she hears the song*
August 8, 2011 at 6:59 pm
That’s a fact, Jack!
August 9, 2011 at 7:03 pm
I always thought it was “Donatello’s dust machine.” And yeah, I could see him inventing something to create more dust so his Roomba would have more to do.
August 8, 2011 at 7:35 pm
YOU KIDS GET OFF MY LAWN!
I feel so fucking old reading about fucking Ninja Turtles.
Can I hear a chorus of Underdog?
August 8, 2011 at 8:00 pm
“Speed of lightning, roar of thunder…Fighting all who rob or plunder…UNDERDOG!”
August 9, 2011 at 6:50 am
“Oh where, oh where has my Underdog gone?”
Say, did you see the live-action movie? It was a lot better than I expected it to be.
August 8, 2011 at 6:12 pm
Strictly for the upper crust, natch.
August 8, 2011 at 6:13 pm
If there is anything that Bette Davis is remembered for, it is her fondness for wearing crocheted pizza in her hair.
August 8, 2011 at 6:13 pm
I actually did laugh out loud. Then I told the joke to my wife and after a few seconds she confessed she didn’t get it.
August 8, 2011 at 6:13 pm
Wow, you’re never going to believe this but I read the title as “Why did the sad hipster burn her mouth?”…and I kept reading it as that until I looked more closely.
This site has changed my brain…or something.
August 8, 2011 at 6:23 pm
it took me a sec too…it’s been a day.
August 8, 2011 at 6:41 pm
“Sad hipster is sad…and burned.”
August 8, 2011 at 6:14 pm
I think this is the same girl who I saw last week at Borders… she was fighting her male hipster friend over a clearance box set of “My Two Dads”, but ultimately decided that she’d hold out and see if there was a DVD set of “Perfect Strangers” somewhere in the store.
Neither of which appeared to be old enough to have ever actually seen either show…
August 8, 2011 at 6:14 pm
Who the fuck loved Donatello? Is it hipster to love Donatello?
August 8, 2011 at 6:18 pm
And I thought the show was about some hot reporter…It seems I am wrong. Again.
August 8, 2011 at 6:20 pm
Everyone liked the other ninja turtles. When we’d play ninja turtles as a kid, we’d fight over who got to be Raph and Mikey. Donatello = Blue Ranger.
August 8, 2011 at 6:38 pm
goddamn it don’t drag my Billy into this hipster shit!!!!
August 8, 2011 at 8:19 pm
I love Billy! Nerds FTW. XD
August 9, 2011 at 4:36 pm
My brother LOVED the blue ranger, to the point where if there was anything called Billy, he wanted it.
August 8, 2011 at 6:21 pm
I loved Donatello, but because I’m a girl, my brother and the two boys down the street always made me play April, while Donatello was unplayed.
*sigh*
August 8, 2011 at 8:08 pm
me too : /
August 8, 2011 at 10:02 pm
There should have been a girl-turtle spinoff, like the Chipmunks had the Chipettes.
August 22, 2011 at 8:17 pm
I know! I’ve long believed the first ember of my now flaming bitchery began in daycare when as the only girl in a group of boys I was forced to play April.
August 8, 2011 at 6:30 pm
I, too, always loved Donatello the most. I don’t know why. I’d always unscrew the handles to my mother’s brooms and subsequently use them to beat the crap out of everything in sight. (I mean, trees, rocks, etc. Not like raccoons and birds.) She would always get pissed and so she finally bought a broom with a handle that didn’t unscrew. So I sawed it off. /boringchildhoodmemories
August 8, 2011 at 8:18 pm
oh wow- I really love that you did that!!!
August 8, 2011 at 8:28 pm
Thanks! My mom…not so much.
August 8, 2011 at 6:34 pm
I still have a rather massive stuffed Donatello in my closet. My dad got it for me when I was five or six.
I had hipster turtle tastes before it was cool.
August 8, 2011 at 6:45 pm
LOL, I had one of those too. I had one that was rather large, and then one that was regular sized. I think I won them at a fair or something.
August 8, 2011 at 7:00 pm
TEAM RAFAEL, BITCHES
August 9, 2011 at 9:38 am
FUCK YES. I was so into the angsty shit when I was little. Tell me your pain, Rafael… I understand… because I am five.
August 8, 2011 at 7:06 pm
I loved Donatello. And still do! Love me some nerd turtle. yes.
August 8, 2011 at 7:23 pm
I loved Donatello and Rafael; the smart one and the angry one. Any surprise I grew up to marry an angsty nerd?
August 8, 2011 at 6:17 pm
At least she has a confident smile on her face; it’s a good photo for something questionable. It’s not like the one that spurred the infamous “ROMPER ROOM!!!!” butthurt. But still…pizza? A tiny bit of me thinks it’s actually kinda cute, but overall it’s just strange.
Still, kudos for a good picture.
August 8, 2011 at 6:18 pm
You know, hippies would put a slice of real pizza in their hair.
for later.
don’t ask how I know, I know.
August 8, 2011 at 6:18 pm
August 8, 2011 at 6:47 pm
Oh I know your work very well indeed. And now that you are here, was it you that pinched the pineapple off that pizza?
August 8, 2011 at 6:18 pm
Hipsters make my brain hurt. I despised them long before it was cool to despise them, though. You hadn’t even heard of them when I started hating them.
August 8, 2011 at 6:19 pm
ah! I want this!
I looked at her shop!
I want it All!!!!
August 9, 2011 at 2:16 am
OK, I admit I kind of like this stuff too! it’s dorky but who amongst us would NOT want a plastic parachute man fascinator? That is fantastic!
August 8, 2011 at 6:19 pm
No one loved Donatello, those liars. The use of the term “Cowabunga” obviously proves that they’re posers and loved Michelangelo, LIKE EVERYONE ELSE.
August 8, 2011 at 6:22 pm
I loved Donatello. But nobody loved pizza like Mikey!
August 8, 2011 at 6:27 pm
Back in MY day, ALL of the turtles loved Pizza! And they had pupils! None of this new fangled whoozlewhatsit… Get off of my lawn…
August 8, 2011 at 7:08 pm
Same. Mikey was the most vocal, but they all loved the pizza.
August 8, 2011 at 8:20 pm
Well of course, they all did. Mikey just took it to a new level of love and devotion.
August 9, 2011 at 6:25 am
My love of nerds MUST have started with Donatello. But that was before being a nerd was so cool. Does that make my favorite turtle a hipster? (I might have to mentally divorce him….)
August 8, 2011 at 6:48 pm
My favorite was Donatello because my favorite color is “purple”. . . you probably haven’t heard of it.
August 8, 2011 at 11:45 pm
Is this some kind of… Tinkywinky thing? Nonevermindwedon’tneedtoknow
August 9, 2011 at 11:31 am
I was always partial to Leo, but I think that was mostly due to him having swords… SWORDS!
August 8, 2011 at 6:21 pm
I didn’t say I wanted crocheted pizza. I said I wanted a piece of your crotch.
August 8, 2011 at 6:24 pm
Looks more like “Now, Capricciosa” to me.
August 8, 2011 at 6:24 pm
Well, I like the piece, even if I’m not a fan of Katie Perry. I think crocheted/knitted foods are fun.
August 8, 2011 at 6:35 pm
I thought it was pretty fun too, and not ridiculously over priced either.
The post was worth it for the joke though! I lol’d.
August 8, 2011 at 9:04 pm
Same. Awesome joke, cute pizza.
August 9, 2011 at 6:47 pm
I’d make one myself if I wouldn’t look totally ridiculous wearing it. Maybe if I wore it like a sweatband with the pizza right in the middle of my forehead…..
August 8, 2011 at 6:25 pm
I love puns and Donatello. Especially puns about Donatello
August 8, 2011 at 6:25 pm
It actually sorta goes with the crocheted eyelashes.
August 8, 2011 at 6:27 pm
She looks like Katy Perry and Zooey Deschanel had a baby. With pizza on her head. And is it just me or does it look like that’s not her arm and hand? It looks like someone’s putting their hand on her shoulder. “Bitch, sit yo pizza-wearin’ ass down!”
August 8, 2011 at 6:30 pm
The seller advises the wearer to wear it vertically. Stupid twit. Wear it vertically and all the toppings slide into your ear! And trust me, you do NOT want hot cheese and pepperoni in your ear canal. It could be worse, though. Thank God there are no anchovies!
August 8, 2011 at 6:32 pm
The real question is: Is it gluten free? Cuz that would be really hipster.
August 8, 2011 at 9:24 pm
It’s probably not even vegan.
August 9, 2011 at 10:53 am
It might be vegan, depends on what it’s knitted from.
Here’s a vegan bacon scarf:
http://theanticraft.com/archive/beltane08/vegan.htm
August 8, 2011 at 6:35 pm
I just keep wanting to rotate the damned thing until the pointy bit faces DOWN. Though I guess that would invite the ear-topping problem, wouldn’t it?
August 9, 2011 at 6:26 am
Exactly my thought!
August 8, 2011 at 6:36 pm
this will look amazeballs with my vintage pizza sweater dress…
August 8, 2011 at 6:39 pm
If you were to wear both together, and maybe some eau de pepperoni…some fat dude would try to eat you. I guess it wouldnt be cannibalism though. He would just be tried for mental confusion.
August 8, 2011 at 6:37 pm
“Go on! Make fun of me! You think it’s fun making fun of me!”
August 8, 2011 at 8:37 pm
A spinster aunt is an ideal person to select presents for young girls.
August 8, 2011 at 6:38 pm
i thought that said voyer pizza and i went 0_o
August 9, 2011 at 12:32 am
Not being a Star Trek fan, I just assumed the Voyager was shaped like a slice of pizza.
August 9, 2011 at 3:36 am
Sigh… “Now, Voyager” was a Bette Davis movie.
As I described to my mother: Bette Davis plays a fat frumpy spinster who has to care for her aging bitter mother. She has a nervous breakdown and goes to a sanitarium where she loses weight and gets her hair done and comes out looking like Bette Davis.
(At this point my mother says “I assume that’s supposed to be an improvement.”)
It’s famous for the line at the end, “why ask for the moon when we have the stars.”
August 9, 2011 at 4:19 pm
Yes, I saw the other comments here.
What I am saying is that, upon first impression, I assumed “pizza = voyager” and the rest was gobbledygook.
August 8, 2011 at 6:40 pm
Well I’d rather have a lasagna hairclip to commemorate Garfield, but to each his/her own, I guess.
August 8, 2011 at 6:41 pm
Now there’s a hair pie I won’t touch.
August 8, 2011 at 6:42 pm
OMG I JUST GOT IT
I think I clocked in at 6 minutes and 23 seconds.
August 8, 2011 at 6:48 pm
somehow I can understand the cake in the hair. Cake always makes sense, even in the hair. Especially if there’s tea.
but not lollipops which are sticky or greasy pizza. No. Just no.
August 8, 2011 at 7:03 pm
It is a much better choice than “or death”.
August 8, 2011 at 7:10 pm
I’ll have the chicken.
August 8, 2011 at 7:13 pm
Good use of obscure quote from an Executive Transvestite!

That looks like a severe case of scalp goiter.
August 8, 2011 at 8:19 pm
this makes me want to make a cupcake hairclip
August 9, 2011 at 1:28 am
That makes me want to seriously consider my diabetes.
August 8, 2011 at 6:50 pm
At least the knit pizza required some level of skill. Look at this other item in her shop

a ball. seriously a ball on a hair clip. seriously
August 8, 2011 at 7:00 pm
But you’ll look like you’re wearing a balloon on your head, what’s not to like?
August 8, 2011 at 7:11 pm
I literally cannot think why anyone would want that. Although, I think this one is worse: http://www.etsy.com/listing/76455561/now-voyager-knitted-sherbet-lolly-hair
Not only is that the stupidest duckface I’ve ever seen, but who would want to walk around looking like you have lollipops stuck in your hair? Isn’t that a look people actively avoid by not sticking sweets in their hair?
August 9, 2011 at 7:11 am
Yes, they are very silly. On the other hand, I’d have to say THIS is the stupidest duckface I’ve ever seen: http://www.etsy.com/listing/76474502/now-voyager-frog-hair-clip
August 8, 2011 at 8:22 pm
i think the guns are worse. dollar store toys glued to shit = hairclip apparently.
August 9, 2011 at 9:11 am
But here’s the thing: That shit will sell. It doesn’t look god awfully bad, and the hipsters will love it. They sell shit like this at hot topic. I mean, this girl is smart to be making it for cheaper, and selling it. I’d be upset if she was claiming it was high art or something, but it’s just some god damn cutesy hair clips.
August 8, 2011 at 8:27 pm

“i eat too much pizza”
sorry i was thinking of bloaty’s pizza hog off invader zim
August 8, 2011 at 6:53 pm
I still don’t get it.
August 8, 2011 at 6:54 pm
Omg… just got it.

How many hipsters does it take to change a lightbulb?
It’s an obscure number. You probably haven’t heard of it.

I usually ask for extra cheese but this thing has all the cheese I could ever want! I’m ordering!
August 8, 2011 at 7:05 pm
Excuse me, but there’s some food in your hair… yea, right there… oh, you paid money to have that food in your hair? Oh, yea, that makes you uber cool!
August 8, 2011 at 7:08 pm
I love pizza so much, and if I wasn’t a fat girl, I would totally rock this. But being a fatty means that people would likely make the obvious jokes.
August 8, 2011 at 7:09 pm
Also, god damn I want some pizza now.
August 8, 2011 at 8:24 pm
I know the feeling, emalineisabear. I wear weird headbands every day and if I wasn’t fat I would LOVE it. Pizza is seriously my favorite food. This may be directly proportional to my fatness.
August 8, 2011 at 7:10 pm
I love this. I mean LOVE. I love the pizza the most; but I’m in hot freaky love with the entire yarn food on the head concept. If wearing knitted foods in my hair is wrong, I don’t wanna be right.
August 8, 2011 at 7:10 pm
There, i said it.
August 8, 2011 at 7:29 pm
I agree 100%.
August 8, 2011 at 7:16 pm
I see that “Now, Voyager” is the shop name, but all I can think of is Star Trek. I imagine Janeway scowling at this photo and saying, “What the shit is this?”
August 9, 2011 at 6:19 am
Janeway would be far too busy looking for coffee to bother with Etsy.
August 8, 2011 at 7:20 pm
Two hipsters walk into a bar. One did it before it was cool. The second did it to be ironic.
August 8, 2011 at 7:22 pm
WTF is Katy Perry doing on Etsy?
August 8, 2011 at 7:31 pm
Okay, which one of you guys just bought it?
August 8, 2011 at 7:34 pm
Oh, I get it, cause, you know, she’s a hipster..
Sorry guys. I feel like I let you all down..
August 8, 2011 at 7:47 pm
Okay who the fuck is this Bettie Page wannabe?

That could be cute. Put one on an up-do so it looks like its taking a little cruise on your head. Very Marie Antoinette.

I am fairly sure that it is not pizza but rather a cross-section of her skull.
August 8, 2011 at 8:08 pm
The seaside bucket fascinator is hysterical.
In defense of the knitted food barrettes, knitted and crocheted food is a big hot thing right now. I am not cute or hip enough to wear the stuff I make but my little nieces are lucky enough to get all kinds of crocheted things and they love them. The one who can talk is always demanding something new-last time it was eyeballs-yes of course I made them.

August 8, 2011 at 8:09 pm
if you take a culture that happened, say, a hundred years ago, then make the whole thing into a painting, then make a litho of the painting, then take a photo of the litho, then take a photo of the photo, then take a photo of the photo of the photo, then take a photo of the photo of the photo of the photo, then take it to kinko’s, say, twenty years ago, twenty five years ago, & xerox it, then keep going there every single day from then to now & do the same thing, THEN you will get an idea of the depth & consistency of the world of hipsters. period. end of sentence, except to add that they couldnt even come up w/ a name for their own fucking culture, they had to borrow–appropriate, steal–the name of an older one. that they barely know existed. that they do not understand. of course.
the end.
August 8, 2011 at 8:13 pm
Is it wrong that I actually kind of love this? Not that I’d buy it. It doesn’t go with anything I own.
August 8, 2011 at 8:13 pm
First exposure to pizza was Ninja Turtles? She lives in England. That explains it. Poor dear.
August 8, 2011 at 8:29 pm
English pizza is generally terrible. Aside from the proper Italian-type pizza, which you can get some places in England, generally the best pizza you can get in the country is Dominos. Which is depressing.
August 9, 2011 at 3:39 am
Is it still the old Domino’s? They upgraded the pizza here in the States, and ran commercials talking about what a nasty piece of cardboard flavorless crap their old pizza was.
August 9, 2011 at 9:27 am
I’m pretty sure it’s the upgraded pizza, as it’s thoroughly adequate in all respects. Not good, but at least it’s better than the crap they call pizza in this country. I don’t know what to call it, but if the crust comes pre-made from your freezer, and the sauce is unseasoned pureed tomatoes, I’m pretty sure it’s not really pizza.
August 8, 2011 at 8:14 pm
I just want to know what the hell this has to do with Now, Voyager. Unless she has it confused with Mystic Pizza. I mean, the first one is a 1940s film about a repressed woman finding her independence and happiness, and the other is a 1980s movie about a bunch of teenage waitresses. But, I guess they both have women in them, so it’s easy to get them mixed up.
August 8, 2011 at 8:27 pm
it’s what i first thought too, but it’s just the name of her shop.
August 8, 2011 at 8:30 pm
She got the idea when she got wasted, passed out and woke up on the floor with pizza stuck to her head.
August 8, 2011 at 8:32 pm
THE untold want, by life and land ne’er granted,
Now, Voyager, sail thou forth, to seek and find pizza.
Pizza, pizza, pizza.
August 8, 2011 at 8:32 pm
I’m almost ashamed but I would totally rock the rubber duckie she’s got. I adore rubber duckies.

Hey, you probably bought out the “Devil Duckies”, especially the dead one; but please enjoy this anyway:

“COWABUNGA”? Shiiit! How about VAVAVOOM!
August 8, 2011 at 8:44 pm
I looked at her shop. OK, I admit it…I actually like her stuff. And I have a lot of friends who do burlesque, and they would love stuff like this. So I’m giving this one a pass; this would be perfect for a burly-q dancer doing a pizza-themed routine, like a sexy delivery gal. (And the butterflies and flowers and straw hats in the shop are kinda sweet, I think.) OK, so this may not be something to wear to the grocery store, but there are contexts where this would be most appropriate.
August 8, 2011 at 10:15 pm
I thought of burlesque as well. She’s super cute.
August 9, 2011 at 7:18 am
I also looked at her shop…and yes, even after calling the lollypops silly and insulting one of the duckfaces she made, I agree with you. She looks like she’s having a ball, and a lot of her stuff is adorable (I love the butterflies). I hope she does well.
August 9, 2011 at 12:27 am
But why pay hipster prices when you can glue shit to hairclips yourself?
August 8, 2011 at 9:34 pm

August 8, 2011 at 9:34 pm
Aww, I think it’s cute.
Until I saw the price. Besides, it’s Mikey who loved pizza the most.
August 8, 2011 at 9:50 pm
“Oh Jerry, don’t let’s ask for the lasagna. We already have the pizza.”
August 9, 2011 at 12:35 am
Donatello? Lame. It’s gotta be Mikey! He was always my favorite anyway…
August 9, 2011 at 1:18 am
I just ate pizza with fake eyelashes on, but it wasn’t to try to sell the pizza. I paid for that shit. I was busy taking gyaro photos. I’m not sorry that I’m not kidding.
August 9, 2011 at 1:53 am
Damn you, I spent the last week looking for an appropriate regretsy thread to post this joke!

Not a flounce, though. I’ll still do it, I just wish you’d put my password up on facebook so I didn’t have to guess.
August 9, 2011 at 6:52 am
I’m not sure what cheap Zooey Deschanel knockoffs with crocheted junk food on their head have to do with Bette Davis movies.
August 9, 2011 at 9:10 am
Wait a minute—this gal is definitely not a hipster. For one thing, she’s having way too much fun and doesn’t appear to be sagging under the crushing weight of her own superiority. Also, her hair is not only brushed but also quite nicely styled. And she’s wearing things that don’t look like they were dragged out of the trunk of an old Buick that she came across on the side of the road while hitchhiking to Bonnaroo. Trust me—I live within spitting distance of Etsy’s Brooklyn headquarters. I know my hipsters.
Also I actually really like her shop! I think the accessories could be really cute in the right context, they look well made/designed, the photos are good, most of her stuff is around $7-15 which seems really reasonable considering that fact that people are peddling rusty pails for a hundred bucks, her descriptions aren’t self-indulgent or full of whimsicle nonsense, and she freely describes her stuff as “silliness for your hair” . . . so yes, Like!
August 9, 2011 at 3:23 pm
She kind of looks rockabilly to me….. but maybe this hick town where they worship Glen Danzig and think Betty Blowtorch is a goddess has warped my fragile mind.

I actually think this is really cute.
August 10, 2011 at 1:33 am
Oh my gosh, I know this brand! I met one of the girls who works with them at an event recently, and they gave us some of their hair accessories to wear in the fashion show! Nice girls, they have some neat accessories too, I had a pretty little butterfly clip to wear, I saw they had some little ships too.
August 22, 2011 at 10:21 pm
Ummmm…. I don’t recall anything about Bette Davis getting hit in the head with a slice of pizza in the movie…
