Hello Kitty Soda Can Necklaces
Hello Kitty, not satisfied to have Hello Kitty body shaped drinks, wants to have her face on all the popular soda drinks as well. While I’m sure that the people at Sanrio are looking into ways to actually create a Hello Kitty Coke and a Hello Kitty Pepsi, until that can be worked out they have decided to simply stamp the evil feline’s face onto the popular soda cans and make necklaces out of them:









Of course, my wife absolutely loves them. She was squealing (in that high pitch tone that only Hello Kitty fanatics seem able to reach when they see Hello Kitty) around the house for an hour telling me how cute and wonderful they are, her plans of buying every style made and how she can’t wait to get them. I, on the other hand, am already tormented by them. Now every soda that I see instantly produces an image of Hello Kitty staring back at me. The Hello Kitty Hell hole once again gets a little deeper…
Sent in by lolalola (via Funky Recycling) who deserves to have these stamped and plated onto her body as punishment for thinking it was a good idea to send them to me and ensuring that I will never be able to enjoy another soda again as long as I live…

DARLENE: Before you say ANYTHING, please, please, please, rehearse your words and see if they sound rational.
I will copy and paste my rant to you from the ‘Steampunk’ post.
Darlene, it’s simple. Some people like Hello Kitty, some people don’t.
HKH man obviously doesn’t like Hello Kitty, and by practically forcing and attempting to cajole him into liking Hello Kitty is basically close to bullying. And if what you say is true, (e.g. Hello Kitty is warm and wonderful and happy and perfect), then she will NOT approve of bullying.
Besides, without HKH, you would have nowhere to spread your so-called ‘beliefs’, so honestly, telling him to stop won’t do you any good at all.
Your comments used to be entertaining, but now they’re just plain childish. Grow up, hun.

You know, I have no interest in Hello Kitty. I’ve never even thought about her ever in my life. I like the blog because I have a dark side — I get a kick out of creative hatred. But all that said, these are awfully cute.

I’ve never heard of GoGirl before… is it not available in Canada, or am I just blind?

Squeeee! I beat Darlene to commenting.
Is there nothing that Sanrio will leave alone? Next there will be HK douches…oh wait…never mind…they already exist.

Is it weird that I find these kind of adorable? You can kind of look at them as a commentary on capitalism: fusing monolithic symbols of consumerism lust from the West and the East.

Hi, everyone! I should confess straight away: I am a Hello Kitty Fanatic. I should go to Hello Kitty Anonymous. My poor husband is living in Hello Kitty Hell right now! He’s just lucky that I don’t go totally nuts and decorate the entire house with the stuff (though I may do the bathroom – since we have 2 bathrooms, he can just do his business in the other one!)
That being said – I think this blog is hilariously funny! And it gives other hello kitty fanatics places to find new HK stuff! I think these are adorable – I really like the Welch’s one, Go Girl one, and green tea one – sorry HKH blogger guy. But hey – it could always be worse!

Mercifully, there isn’t a Barr’s Irn Bru (note spelling) one. If you don’t know what it is, follow the links:-

http://www.irn-bru.co.uk/
And to see some of their (usually inovative and/or satirical adverts, search for Irn Bru on Youtube.

Hey, those look pretty cute. I want one.
That’s probably the only hello kitty thing I think isn’t too commercialised and over the top.
I want one.

So you have something against the environment and upcycling as well? Hello Kitty is all about helping the planet and making the world a better place to live and you think this is a bad thing? Figures!
Hello Kitty is helping to make something that is trash into something cute and lovable that everyone can enjoy and you think this is a bad thing? No wonder none of your writing makes any sense to us.
And here’s something that I think it is interesting. You used the word tormented. Did you know that you can only be tormented by the things that you love? Think about that Mr Hello Kitty Hell.

I think Darlene has a point.
You guys just love drama so you keep going against her, and when she was gone, you missed her.
you guys are weird.
stop hating

They don’t hate her, they’re entertained by her special brand of obsessive crazy. Her posts are sad and hilarious at the same time.

Now us HK fans can watch as the non hello kitty fans can die of thirst because liqiud containers are now kitty-fied. We aren’t babies, that’s why. (Except maybe Darlene.)

Wow, save for the Hello Kitty design, the idea of a soda can pendant is really cool. Too bad they couldn’t have made a less evil design…
