They could make new ones with the leftover frosting and the contents of my vacuum cleaner bag. Etsians are like the Native Americans- the way they don’t let anything go to waste.
Man, and I thought gluing googly eyes to my phone case was clever. Actually I still do. I put googly eyes on everything. My husband didn’t think it was funny when I put some on the cat, but it was awesome.
Why do I get the feeling that this is the Iphone case that Pizza the Hut of Spaceballs would have carried?
Also, this phone case almost single-handedly summed up Everything Wrong With America in a single item. Add some culturally appropriated First Nations feathers and maybe a steampunk Octopus. Then again, that would probably cause the universe to collapse and form a black hole of awfulness around this thing…
“Whipped”? Boyo, if you’re getting “whipped” by 14-year-old girls so regularly you have to buy them useless presents like this to shut them up, you may need to rethink your choice of dating partners.
The frosting idea is cool. Reminds me of the chocolate cake postcard HK showed us. If there were sensible dessert items in it instead of gems and pizza, it would be hilariously adorable. Some fake berries from the craft store and maybe “flakes of chocolate” carved outta some brown plastic.
It could be used just on birthdays, showers and at weddings, for that price.
I concur! If it weren’t for the obnoxious use of plastic “gems”, pony beads and random pizza… if it were just the “frosting”, it would kind of great. I’m frankly wondering how the hell they got that effect – what did they even use?
In fact, this was my response, in order:
“Food uh oh Etsy food on Regretsy never a goo—- oh that’s a PHONE CASE? actually that’s kinda neat granted a little overbedazzled but it looks like frosting I wonder how they —–wtfPIZZA!?!?!PONY BEADS? TF?”
If it were just the “frosting” and like, maybe some fake “chocolate chips” – as in, seriously just trying to look like a dessert – it would kind of rock. As it is though… I… I don’t even. It’s just trying WAY too hard to be, I dunno, everything at once. And failing.
Wouldn’t it be Scheizenkrystals? Or something? I’m not exactly fluent, mind. So feel free to ignore me.
Also, lemme guess: “deco-den” is a Japanese style abomination. Probably popularized in Harajuku or Shibuya section of Tokyo… by spoiled upper middle class schoolgirls.
Seeing as Shibuya/Harajuku together IIRC is where we got Kogals, Ganguro, Lolita, Gothloli, and… those bizarre over-layered stick-a-million-mismatched-things-on fashions?
Why would you ever eat frosting and pizza? And wtf is nom nom nom? I see that everywhere and dont know why people feel compelled to say it. Nothing is clever or cute repeated ad nauseum.
“nom” is the current accepted onomatopoeia for “biting and/or scarfing down with gusto”.
I’ve always figured it came from Cookie Monster on Sesame Street, because that’s exactly the same sound he makes any time he eats anything (literally anything – could be cookies, could be a bowl of fruit, and he still makes the sound): “OM NOM NOM NOM”
And I will have to disagree… well, not that it’s overused, because yeah, it is. But it is seriously the perfect onomatopoeia for what it… is the onomatopoeia for.
Sort of like “quaffing”. It has that goofily primal sound down just right; that perfect balance rendering an adorkably silly sound… that actually indicates a frightening lack of inhibition.
Or put another way: cliches are cliche for a reason
Hmm… noticing a trend here, of “female artists who have good voices but keep writing horrendous lyrics to the extent that I end up liking like maybe one of their songs, tops, and just find everything else they do completely irritating”, also liking to wear shit that makes them look like they came out of a Cotten Candy machine on the “unrestrained batshit kawaiiiiiiiidessuuuuu” setting.
Or it will be a pattern, if a third one pops up anyway. >.>
(And no, Lady Gaga doesn’t count for this. Because I actually like her songs, for one, and for another, her particular brand of theatrical somehow doesn’t come across as “wee, I’m quiiiiirky lookit me! tee hee!”, so much as… actually theatrical, like a Performance Artist with a budget. There’s a difference between wearing a wig colored like candy because it’s “cute, tee hee!”…and wearing a wig and that makes you 8 feet tall and then talking to the POTUS in it).
If it wasn’t for the pizza and letters, this would pass for one of those “stained glass” desserts with chunks of Jello stirred into whipped cream…remember those?
With the pizza and other shit, it just looks dumb.
My two-year-old, who has only recently started watching SUPER WHY (the show guaranteed to turn parents into Percocet addicts, and might just make your kid learn the alphabet), just climbed on the bed and pointed out the letters N and O on the phone case.

hm a bargain. The trouble is for that price are you buying an ugly as sin paperweight, or badly dressed working device.

So this is what happens when you absent-mindedly leave that pack of rhinestones overnight in the cupboard next to a can of frosting. Naughty!

What is a “deco den?” And if this is indicative of said deco den, how do I avoid it?
September 24, 2012 at 3:03 pm
I don’t know, but I think it’s pretty clearly related to a drug den. At least I hope it is, to explain the results.
September 24, 2012 at 3:52 pm
I heard it was “deco-dens” that brought down the Roman Empire.
September 24, 2012 at 11:15 pm
But at least they had clean teeth.
September 24, 2012 at 4:00 pm
Deco den is a style of decorating stuff by covering it with too many rhinestones and lots of crap that looks food (usually desserts.)

Yeah, I’m going with one or the other of the two.
September 28, 2012 at 10:42 pm
Yeah pretty much. Actually I think a lot of girls who like sweet lolita or fairy kei/decora or similar styles also like these types of items.
Actually, decora and fairy kei are basically the fashion/clothes version of deco den, I’d say.
