Help Me Get Rid of 200 Hello Kitty Items: Comment!
One of the activities I undertake each year is collect toys for a local orphanage in Japan. While the orphanages here are pretty well run compared to other places in the world, there isn’t a whole lot of extra money for toys for the kids. So every year I go around and collect small toys such as bottle cap figures, key chains, phone straps and plush (stuffed animals) for the boys and girls.
In one of our recent discussions about this blog (my wife has learned to ignore it to a great extent, but when she does visit, I usually get an earful…) this past weekend, my wife commented that it’s always the same people who comment on this blog which means it’s only the same people who read this blog all the time. I argued that while there are a core group that tend to comment quite a bit, there are a lot of readers that just read and never comment (I should have added, “because everything is so ridiculous that it makes them speechless” but I was already treading on this ice of being sent to the couch in the Hello Kitty sleeping bag).
She gave me one of those laughs like “nice try, but I won’t believe it till I see it.” So I challenged that if I can get 1000 different people to comment on a post, would she be willing to donate some of her Hello Kitty stuff to the orphans? She agreed, but also stipulated that if I fail to reach 1000, I have to take her on a Hello Kitty trip this August and I’m not allowed to complain at all (that certainly would be nothing short of Hello Kitty Hell…)
So here’s the deal. For every 5 new people that comment (if it’s to say something bad about Hello Kitty, all the better, but even if it is something positive, I will forgive you since it’s for a good cause) my wife said that she will donate a Hello Kitty toy to the toy drive (even if if the total doesn’t reach 1000). 100 comments means 20 toys, 500 comments means 100 toys and 1000 comments means 200 toys. With your help, I have the opportunity to rid our house of 200 Hello Kitty items that will go to a good cause and my wife won’t even be able to complain about it. How great would that be?
Since I don’t want me wife accusing me of cheating, please don’t make multiple comments under different names (it’s too easy for her to figure it out). If you have never commented before, this is your chance to say something and help out a great cause. Please also take a few moments to spread the word and tell your friends. The thread needs 1000 comments from different people to donate the maximum number of toys — that’s less than half the current rss feed readers. Not only will I be deeply grateful in getting 200 products of the evil feline out of this house, it’s not often that you can bring a smile to the face of a child by simply leaving a short comment. Thank you in advance for all those that are willing to help.
Start commenting!!
Update: “Wow” is all I can say. When my wife and I made the deal, I had to reach 1000 comments before the end of the month. It took just over 2 days to accomplish it with all of your help. While I did find the number of Hello Kitty fanatics that read this blog a bit disturbing, I’ll suppress that horror knowing that this house will have 200 less Hello Kitty products crowded inside in the weeks to come and that there is no need to go on a Hello Kitty vacation this summer! That is certainly a great relief and something to celebrate!
Of course, I will photo document all the items with the evil feline that leave this house with great joy and pleasure as we pack them up and deliver them. Those will appear in future update posts about it. This is probably the biggest victory ever in Hello Kitty Hell and is certainly something that I could get used to!
Feel free to keep commenting. I’m not sure what the comments above 1000 will mean at this very moment, but I’ll figure out how to make those above 1000 help out as well for all those that took the time to stop by and help a good cause.
I’d just like to take another moment to thank everyone that took the time to comment to help out the kids. It’s very much appreciated.

First time posting/long time reader
I read the blog for the amusement of your everyday HK Hell life. I’ve got a gf and a cousin that are addicted to HK but not as bad as some of the things that I’ve see here. Anyways… I hope that you reach the goal of 1000 comments as it is a very good cause (and to also show your wife how many people actually keep up with this website – HK fan or Non HK fan). Anyways… keep up the good work… I think…

I am a huge Hello Kitty fan and my husband lives in Hello Kitty Hell, too. All I have to say about the donated toys is “pics or it didn’t happen!”
Teasing. Tell your wife I admire her sacrifice. I also salute you, too for being so supportive of her Hello Kitty collection. Some people would argue that making a website complaining about being in Hello Kitty Hell is not at all supportive, but since you haven’t really denied her any Hello Kitty items, it can’t be that bad for her.

I started reading this blog after searching for the word “tattoo” in google images and I think the Hello Kitty tattoo on a dog came up. I’m asian and was part of mini Sanrio craze in middle school, but I actually until I read this had no idea that people were so Hello Kitty cultish. And I thought Pokemon was bad.
Anyway hello! Children are allowed to like Hello Kitty so send them toys!

Wow. She’s willing to donate toys and you get less crap in the house with an affirmation that people read this site. Also, orphans get toys.

Just include that horrible ukelele and the bag so she can’t send you to her version of the doghouse.

I LOVE this site. I am a huge HK fan and love to learn about HK facts and toys, etc that are posted here. I am sorry that you don’t enjoy HK as much as your wife. My husband is very supportive of my habit but I don’t indulge too much.
Ironically, we have several kitties that are like the HK characters, so I live HK every day. Our flamepoint Siamese looks JUST like HK. Napolean is a burmese who looks like Chococat. And our sphynx is just like Nyago.
So, tell your wife that if she were a true fan, she would have a HK cat herself!
She should do that instead of the trip. Memories made every day….

I read this via RSS feed so I don’t even think about commenting. So sorry. And I gain such joy from your misery…er, I mean blog. I can’t imagine you being forced to go on a Hello Kitty trip—no one’s karma could be that bad. Tell your wife needs to stop stalling and start thinning the Kitty herd—the orphans are as good an excuse as any.

I love HK, but have the good sense to understand that I don’t have the space for a large collection and my husband does not share my enthusiasm. I keep my collection to things I can use, like my microwave, toaster, toaster oven, juicer and coffee maker. Other things – like purses, dolls, and shoe charms – are gifts, so I can’t say no. I am allowed one bookcase to store those gifts in. If they don’t fit I have to give them away or sell them. To be fair, the same rules apply to my husband and his collection of video game figurines. This website is fun to visit, and I wish I could see all of the interesting HK things in person, but know owning them would spoil the fun.

Although I own HK jello molds, I don’t really understand Hello Kitty fanaticism. Is it acquiring Hello Kitty items that gives the rush, or owning them? If it’s the former, maybe this could be a new tradition for you and your wife: She can buy all the HK stuff she wants, then you donate it to the orphanage. Really, Hello Kitty is primarily for children (sex toys excluded; their made by contractors, not Sanrio itself), and an adult hoarding children’s toys while real kids do without is a little Scrooge-ish.
P.S. The jello molds are perfect for both the HK fan and detractor. On one hand, they’re so cute! On the other, you get to gouge at her slimy head with a spoon!

I think you should up the ante a bit. If you reach your goal of 1,000 (and there’s little doubt in my mind that you will), that you give your wife a second chance for a HK vacation IF she doubles her donation (and you retain the right to complain without retribution).
And oh yeah…kudos for using your blog for such a great cause!

I have been a consistent visitor to this site for quite some time. I enjoy looking at all of the Hello Kitty items, and find that they run the spectrum from useless yet cute to completely ridiculous. I also understand that it is natural for men to avoid being near Hello Kitty items. For example, I will never forget the look of terror and disgust on my male colleague’s face when no other pen was available and he was forced to use my Hello Kitty pen. Good luck reaching 1000 comments!

I feel that it is my duty in the name of all things masculine to help you strike back at the malevolent hello kitty!
When we were kids we’d buy any sort of crap just because they had our favourite cartoon character on. But then we grew up and realised that this was essentially preying on the weak.
I read your blog because I’m not only fascinated that such crap exists, but also that there is also a market for it. Basically car crash TV.

Good luck with reaching your 1000 unique readers.

I just stumbled across your site this afternoon and thought I would chip in. The scary thing is that I was searching for “love hotel” because in my American naivete I had no idea what they were, and they were mentioned in an article I was reading. I am both disturbed and amused by what I found here.
I’m not really a Hello Kitty fan, but I did opt for the Hello Kitty design ATM card on our secondary checking account because my husband sent me to the bank while he stayed home and played City of Heroes on double XP weekend. I felt it was a fitting punishment.
Good luck!

Well at first I wondered what evils could the poor orphans have committed to deserve a piece of Hello Kitty Hell so young?
But, since obviously Hello Kitty has cold heartedly decided that she wouldn’t get enough monetary returns from simple charity, I think you are on a on a right track.
Besides kids break stuff, so perhaps in a couple of years there would be a lot fewer of those donated Hello Kitty items left to haunt the living (and, disturbingly, even in graveyard you can’t get away from Hello Kitty). A kind of happy ending.

I love this blog page even though it has to do with hating on the character that I love and am passionate about. I have a small collection of Hello Kitty stuff, but according to my boyfriend, it’s way too much (even though alot of it came from him
). When I told him about this blog page, I told him it could be worse and he could be in real HKH like this guy….and when he found out that his favorite porn star Tera Patrick is a HUGE Hello Kitty fan, he really shut up! WHoa, getting off subject….anyways, I hope my commenting helps you get to your goals….and keep up the HK hating…it only encourages me to find all this new HK stuff

I have been reading this blog for quite a while now, but I have remained one of your invisible readers. This is a nice opportunity to “come out of the closet”.
I have to admit that I like Hello Kitty and that I own a few items with her image. But as long as my boyfriend keeps giving me more Hello Kitty items, I’m assuming I’m not pushing him into Hello Kitty Hell. He’s going voluntarily! XD I even convinced him to post here so that more toys will be donated to charity.
I like this blog because it reminds me of how ridiculous I am sometimes, drooling over children’s toys. Your humour is excellent and I feel genuinely sorry for your involuntary stay in Hello Kitty Hell. Please continue to write and find your way out!
I’m only worried about one little thing: what effect will 200 Hello Kitty toys have on innocent children? How many obsessed females who will force their husbands down Hello Kitty Hell will it create? Let’s hope those children will be sensible enough to see what those toys really are: manifestations an evil feline plotting world domination.

I believe my comment is supposed to go here?
I have been reading some of your blogs my girlfriend showed me and I genuinely feel sorry for the Hell you have to go through. When I gave my girlfriend a Hello Kitty watch for her last birthday, I didn’t think of the(future) Hell I might be pushing myself in. So from this day on, no more Hello Kitty for her. =3
… *girlfriend giving him the angry look*
On second thought, maybe a little something every now and then won’t be so bad… ^^;

I’ve posted to only a couple items, so your wife’s wrong about people like me not existing.
By the way, you have my full sympathy; I started as neutral to Hello Kitty, but some of the things you’ve shown have had me staring in utter disbelief.
The one thing that this blog has shown is that you really love your wife. Love should always be encouraged.
I hope she leaves you at least one room totally free of HK. Everyone deserves an area that’s theirs alone, with only the stuff they really like in it. Not to say you can’t have your wife in there, of course.
After all, if you like, say, fishing, she shouldn’t have to put up with fishing tackle, stuffed bass and trophies, and such all across her vanity table.
Just my thought. Good luck to you both. Last comment: I really appreciate that she’s willing to donate some of her beloved items to those less fortunate. That shows a truly loving heart on her part; I’m sure you cherish it, as well as her. (And lest the evil-minded think I mean you love her only because she’s willing to get rid of some of the HK items, that’s not what I mean at all.)

I’m active duty Air Force and I used to decorate my overhead with nothing but Pink and Hello Kitty. It got to the point where folks decided that they couldn’t beat me, so they joined me and started adding things to my overhead Kittly collection!

Haha, I’m a huge Hello Kitty fan (yes, I’m one of the freaks who actually has a tattoo and everything) and I’ve had this blog on an RSS feed for a long time. Never once commented because I figured anything I might have to say would be unwelcome, being a Hello Kitty lover and all, but the blog definitely entertains me greatly. While I love Hello Kitty immensely, I also see the humor in the obsession for anyone on the “outside.”
Now, let me just be clear, I’m not posting this to “make” your wife get rid of stuff. I’m posting it to help some underprivileged kids who don’t have any Hello Kitty stuff at all to get some stuff!

I love to read your blog, but I never would comment due to the drama even IN the comments.
How posting can lead to helping a Kid’s Charity, I would do it, and that’s why I’m posting.
I’m not sure if I should be happy or sad you MIGHT be going on a trip this August.

I have to admit that I happen to love Hello Kitty, but from what I’ve read here, your wife takes it WAY over the top. You’re a great guy for putting up with all of it. My boyfriend would lose his mind if I filled the house with all that stuff.
Here’s my contribution, hopefully the toys will make those kids smile.

I haven’t been commenting as frequently as I used to, but I’ll still support a good cause! I kind of did the same thing. I donated two garbage bags full of Hello Kitty stuff to my brother’s friend’s daughter who has cerebal palsy. She really liked it of course, plus all the stuff I gave her was way too childish for me anyways and I shouldn’t have bought it in the first place. Anyways, good luck, and I hope you make it to 1000!

First time commentor… I think it’s great that she is willing to donate so much hello kitty stuff. I hope you reach the 1,000 mark!
Although you do realize that once she donates stuff it probably means that she will have to buy all new stuff to make up for the lack of hello kitty…
Or that you will spend even more money trying to get some key items she may miss afterwards. That’s the worst possible outcome.
Maybe she will find she does not miss/need those things. But I really think it’s great that orphan children will be enjoying some gifts from you guys. I donate things now and again, I would probably have a hard time parting with 200 items all at once!
Sorry, no HK bashing from me. I love HK, we have the same birthday! (and yea I kno…she doesn’t REALLY have a birthday, creation day, whatever–we are one in the same)

even though you complain about HK all the time this site always brings a smile to my face. and also makes me want to move to japan!!!!

This will be my first comment but I have wanted to for awhile. I am a recovering Hello kitty addict. I started back in 1976 and continued till 2002.
I no longer spend money on Hello Kitty merchandise but up until this time have kept my near 30 year collection in boxes in the garage.
This post has inspired me to venture out there and make the first step toward letting go of the last remnants of a frightening and expensive addiction.
But do you think it’s right to pass on this addiction to innocent children or should the whole lot be burnt in a bonfire?
I guess I’ll give it all to the kiddies. They’re not my children after all!
Bless you for your efforts and keep fighting the good fight!

I throw my support to this selfless endeavor but I think that your wife should get to go to her dream Hello Kitty trip. After all, she’s getting the short end of the deal (despite the very noble intentions)- you benefit from her sacrifice and she loses some of her collection. Either way, you win.

I hope to help relieve you of some of the kitty clutter in your house, and donating to kids is a great cause. Kudos to your wife as well for generously offering to give away her things. And in light of that, regardless of if you reach the 1000 or not (and it looks like you will), you should take her on the kitty trip anyway. Then she can easily replenish the 200 items she had to give away.

I am not sure if I have left a comment before but even if I did, it would have been a long time ago. I am happy to be part of this “event”. Moreover, I do think it is much better if all the HK stuff that your wife has will go to an orphanage rather than ending up in the trash can or some hidden corner of your house. So, here’s my comment and I will let my friends know of this event and ask them to leave a comment.
Last but not least, Mr. Kitty Hell, I have been reading your blog for quite a while not and do enjoy your blog a lot, keep the good work up and… hang in there!

As a big fan of your Hello Kitty Hell website, and always flabbergasted at the terrible products bearing the Hello Kitty face, I wish you luck in getting to 1000 signatures. On one hand, it would be great for the orphans but on the other hand, it is spreading the evil Hello Kitty message to a much wider, more vulnerable audience. Cheers and keep up the good work.

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Hello Kitty,
it’s great that you guys help out in orphanages! I’ve started subscribing through a RSS feed since last week. Must admit I love HK, but I also love the rants ![]()
Thankfully my son and partner get spared a lot of my ooohs andd aaahs but at the end of the day that’s why you guys love us girls ![]()
Good luck Mr. HK, and Mrs. HK I’ll email you a few HK items I found here in Spain that I’ve never seen anywhere else.

Oh, and my boyfriend hates this site with a passion because of u, I have somewhat gotten into Hello Kitty with the Nintendo DS case, ringtone, wallpaper, and video games. Good luck getting rid of everything!

I love this website. When I was a little girl, I loved HelloKitty a great deal. Now that I’m in my 30s, I have 2 or 3 HK items that I love. However, the amount of ridiculous crap that Sanrio and its affiliates come up with to slap that cartoon cat upon is mind-boggling.
Good Luck getting rid of the stuff!

By donating those toys to the impressionable children you’re helping creating future hello kitty addicts. Just kidding, thats really nice of your wife to give to the orphans. Hopefully you reach the 1000 so you don’t have to endure that hell of a trip

I love HK and my husband is pretty supportive, but I just horrified him with the thought of HK racing leathers.
I love this sight because I laugh every time I read it and I get to see all the new things I want to buy.

Ok, so I love HK but when a friend linked me to your blog I found it absolutely hilarious. Probably because me and my husband are similar to you and your wife. I love HK and everything cute (disneyland etc.) and he often gets aggravated with my level of cute/pinkness. Also, my friends constantly send me pics of the new weird HK thing they’ve found on the web. so I suppose it was only a matter of time until I found this blog.
I agree w/Jaime that it WOULD be really funny to see you go to puroland, but toys for kids usually takes precedence. Plus, that’s just room for MORE NEW HK stuff!
I think your wife wins either way.

My contribution to the comment cause will be the story of why I hate Hello Kitty.
See, I spent some time living in Indonesia growing up and that was where I first encountered Hello Kitty products. I admit I thought the basic idea was cute, even if some of the execution was kind of annoying. Or at least, I thought so at first.
Then I realized they were *everywhere*. On notebooks, pencils, pens, watches, alarm clocks, pillows, cars, bobbles, stickers, scrapbooks, greeting cards, wallpapers, tee-shirts, pants, shoes, lamps, and televisions. And there were about fifty-thousand different Hello Kitty characters (including a very memorable Hello Kitty vampire I saw somewhere), all of which were so sickeningly cute that the attraction faded very quickly.
Naturally, being innundated with so much Hello Kitty around me, I couldn’t avoid owning some of it, and I discovered that pretty much every Hello Kitty item available was marketed at incredibly sub-standard quality (sub-standard even for the area of Indonesia in which I lived) to whatever non-Hello Kitty counterpart it might have had.
So, I hate Hello Kitty. And I avoid it wherever I can. Thankfully, I don’t live in a Hello Kitty Hell of any description, but I used to, so I sympathize.

Much as I love Hello Kitty, I generally side with you when it comes to your having to deal with it (I have a lot of fandoms, but I don’t force them on my friends who aren’t also into Hello Kitty/Lord of the Rings/videogame music/D&D/whatever.)
I’d just like to point out that this means Darlene doesn’t know what she’s talking about–your wife started selling Hello Kitty stuff as a way to make some extra income, so you’re obviously kinda short on cash, but you still spend time helping out needy kids. Awesome.
And if I can help out just by commenting, all the more awesome.

seriously, what do you do for a living that allows your “wife” to purchase all this stuff?
second, if there really is an orphanage where these apparent items will be sent, your wife would be incredibly mean and selfish to keep said items to herself just cause your personal blog can’t bring in enough comments.

200 toys is small compared to the sheer amount of crap you have shown us but it is a nice start. If we didn’t all have the same ip address, I would have everyone in my family comment.

I just recently discovered your blog and haven’t commented before, but for the sake of your sanity, I’ve decided to quit lurking. You’re already living in Hello Kitty Hell, and I’m not sure, but I think forcing someone to go on a Hello Kitty themed vacation likely violates some sort of UN dictate about cruel and unusual punishment.
I just know you’re going to get your 1000 signatures, so be sure and post pictures of the toys and the kids at Christmas time. It’s nice to know that just commenting will insure some kid gets a nice Christmas present and helps preserve your sanity at the same time.

Chipping in my little bit. Yes, I read this blog, and I even own a couple of Hello Kitty items (namely a disturbing vibrator and a couple of keychain charms I got out of a vending machine in an interstate rest stop). More than a couple Hello Kitty things? Too much Hello Kitty for me. (It doesn’t help that I don’t like pink. And yes, I am female.)
I bet the kids will like them, though! Go, team, go!

I think he feels the same way about my books and shoes, but seriously. Those items are USEFUL.

My God. That would be horrifying thing to go through. If my sister [the one with the Hello Kitty obsession in my family] told me that I had to go on a Hello Kitty vacation, I would have smacked her upside the head and told her that she lost her mind if she thought I was ever going to do that. I am now very thankful that her love of Hello Kitty does not go as far as your wife does. I hope you get all the comment you need.

What a great idea – to share with children who have nothing, particularly items that are meant FOR children. I have nothing against adults collecting toys; however, this is excessive. Again, particularly when there are so many children who are in need all over the world.

You should add a stipulation that she NOT replace these items with new ones. If she feels the overwhelming need to purchase HK items, then let her ….. as long as they go straight to someone who needs them, and not someone who has an unusual obsession with them.

Now that I’m taking my medication I can see that attacking the blogger’s masculinity is just my way of trying to feel superior.
Focussing my life around Hello Kitty and projecting rigid gender roles have just been my dysfunctional way of coping with the HK female circumcision kit that was used on me. I guess my fascination is just a form of Stockholm Syndrome.
To all that I insulted: mea culpa.
If you read me posting insipid judgemental drivel again, just remind me to take my meds and to stop hiding behind the defense of mental illness.

those japanese kids are gonna have some really cute toys, lol kinda makes me wish i could be a japanese orphan. just keep in mind whatever she gives away will have to be replaced with something that could be much worse….like say she gives away a hello kitty plushie…it could be replaced with hello kitty pajamas for you or hello kitty boxers

Will this sudden boost in comments result in any increase in income?? If so, I think that money should go to the orphans as well.
My wife is Korean, and by the standards of this website, I would say a very mild HK fanatic. I found your site while looking for a Hello Kitty wedding cake topper (you’ll be happy to know, you were of no help). I don’t mind the HK stuff as long as it serves some purpose, but I do reserve the right to poke in the eyes any HK that comes within arm’s reach.

Hi, just to offer my solidarity, Hello Kitty is indeed crap. But there are many other crappy fashion/kid stuff, like Power Rangers, Dragonball, etc. You know, when I think about Kitty, it reminds me of another character: Betty Boop. Now that was much better. Oh, Betty – there’s something nostalgic about her, isnt there? Cheers from Portugal, Rui

I think he failed to see a flaw in his logic.
By donating 200 Hello Kitty toys from his house, he will see a brief relief. But now kids in orhanages will grow up to be Hello Kitty fanatics and buy more HK stuffs from his wife. After a brief relief, he will see more HK inventories in his house. The only hope is either HK is outdated by then or Human race is doomed by Global warming or war. Don’t forget kids grow up very quickly …

For the sake of the children and not being dragged to Puroland, hi there!
Hello Kitty is cute, but it’s WAY too easy to go overboard with it.
But now I have to do research on Puroland just to see if it’s as mindbendingly saccharine as I imagine it.

But it’s really wonderful what you and your wife are doing. Think I should do the same with MY Hello Kitty stuff.
I used to be a HK junky, but now I’m mostly clean. I probably won’t hate her as much as you do, but I’m not keen on how Sanrio has sold her face to so many ridiculous companies.

Well, here is another person who reads your blog but does not comment… for the record, I am a fan of the feline – I am in the Army and there isn’t a person in my unit who doesn’t know about my bright pink HK coffee pot sitting on my desk. It travels with me – it has been to training missions, in the field, and is now in Kuwait with me! Although, I think that some of the things on your blog are a bit farther than I would go… I keep my house boyfriend-friendly and would never humiliate him with the kitty (he loves me enough to tolerate the Sanrio store on the rare occasion we are in a city with one), and I won’t wear the one pair of HK panties I own around him for fear that they would be a major turn-off (and from reading your blog I see that I was wise in that decision! ).
Anyway, keep up the lovely blog. You are so obviously in love with your wife it is wonderful to see, even though you are in a HK Hell… she is one lucky lady! Hopefully you two will eventually reach a place of HK compromise. (^_^)

I have never been fanatical about any crazes but I have always loved pink and ever since the first hello kitty object I bought (electric toothbrush), I am addicted. She’s so cute and pink!!!! I must admit, there is so much merchandise out there and the styles are so diversified. My fav thing is my hello kitty coloring book.
I have only recently stumbled onto hello kitty hell but I think it’s a hoot. I also was pleased to dee how many other ppl love the humor, never make themselves known, but bother to comment for the good cause. Truly shows the hearts of hello kitty fans and the ppl who are surrounded by them.

I am a Hello Kitty fan that is why I don’t feel the need to add negative comments all the time. However, there are several instances on this site where I have seen people go way overboard.

What a wonderful way to help spread the joy of Hello Kitty to poor deprived children who othewise would have no access to icons of the beloved feline to worship at the feet of. So, there could be another 200 miniature Hello Kitty shrines created because of your wife’s generosity. I’m sure there’s a pink boatload of Hello Kitty good karma waiting for her now. Maybe you can convince her to make this an ongoing project to help spread the love of Hello Kitty to even more unsuspecting souls throughout the world. Good luck with this.

And one more silent reader! I was referred here some day, and just keep visiting for further laughs. (I also do get a bit paranoid when I suddenly bump into Hello Kitty IRL, but it doesn’t last.)
Have you thought, however, that in order to get rid of a “mere” 200 HK items, you will end up contaminating as many innocent orphans? Evil is everywhere and never stops.

I was introduced to your blog by a hello kitty lover.. thanks to the ridiculous content that exists with hello kitty on it, I think I’m converted. I don’t believe that was the intention of the blog but I never realized hello kitty was this ridiculous! I actually find it fantastic.
In the end, all extra comments after the 1000 should further incourage your wife to donate more hello kitty toys for the kids… she can think of it as spring cleaning and buy new ones.

hi, enjoy your site. I admit I’m rather sucked in by the irresistable cuteness myself. I have a few items purchased “for the nieces” that never quite made it to them…
As posted by others, you might not be doing these poor children a favor… part of the appeal for me is the fond memories of childhood Hello Kitty dolls…

Glad to see you reached your total. I’m actually surprised that this blog is that popular. I guess the power of Schadenfreude is indeed a force to be reckoned with. You do of course realize that now that those items are gone, Your wife is probably going to buy them again. at your expense. Even when you win In Hello Kitty Hell, you lose.

I am a big (wel.. small really. I’m 4′10) Hello Kitty fan. Since I was a young young child. Hello Kitty reached all the way to Colombia to embed itself in my heart
Anyway, I was actually googling shower caps (I only ever wear Hello Kitty shower caps) and somehow came across this website! Wow! I can’t wait to share it with everyone that has had to live with me and my Hello Kitty crap.
Anyway, I know it’s late to comment for the orphan cause, but still… wanted to say hello and let you know I’m reading even if not commenting.

I am too late for the 200 but hopefully this comment can go towards helping you get rid of more items from the house (i get the feeling 200 items relative to the number of items she has, total, is nothing — sort of like taking the limit of 1/x as x approaches infinity — that ‘1′ doesn’t/can’t do anything in comparison to infinity).
being Japanese clearly does not make me immune to the horror that resides in your home – it would drive me insane. i wish you the best of luck with ‘cleansing’ your home.

This site alone is proof of all that is wrong with consumerism. Really, I’m all for cute mascots as a sales gimmick, but just licensing Hello Kitty and slapping it onto a gazillion products is criminally lazy. To anyone even remotely considering a Sanrio purchase: Make it a pair of socks. That way, Hello Kitty’s mug gets soaked in foot juice and trampled on all day long.
Brave denizen of the tenth circle of hell, I salute you. My theory is that this advanced level of devilish torment escaped Dante because Virgil was concerned that the former’s head might explode from cuteness.

I loooove your site. I loooove Hello Kitty too. I feel for you for living in a Hello Kitty Hell. Too much of a good thing is never a good thing.
My husband feels for you too. I, as a Hello Kitty fanatic, have a rule in place that sais: “not to buy any Hello Kitty stuff unless it’s of any use and I don’t have another similar item already”. So I can buy a Hello Kitty toaster, as long as I don’t have a toaster yet. Or, if something’s only ornamental, I need to have a proper place for it before I buy it. This really stops Hello Kitty from flooding my house.
For my husband I try to keep the Hello Kitty stuff in the living room to a minimum. He did put a 3D Hello Kitty in the cupboard and I was so proud!
So yeah, my husband feels for you. He knows how fast a Hello Kitty hobby can run out of hand and he keeps a keen eye on it, haha.
