By now, several of you have become proud (we hope) possessors of items from Musery Loves Company. We’re curious. When you wear your Musewear in public, do you get any…you know, reactions? Comments? Funny looks? (More than usual, we mean.) What does it feel like to be the public face of the Kokonspiracy?
Patience, Please
This site is under reconstruction and will look strange for a while. We regret the inconvenience.
People once or twice asked what it was.
One friend said he didn’t want to know why I had hot pink bunnies on my sweatshirt (signature one, not HPB one).
My English teacher started reading it.
Everyone else either doesn’t notice or shrugs it off as part of my geekiness.
First post?
I actually happened to wear my fantabulous hpb sweater today to skool, and nobody said ANYTHING. Maybe I’ll get a Pwt Pwns one…
It was a first post!!!
*rejoices*
I have to add some substance to this if I want it to be approved, so I’ll say something else.
Many people seem to be unobservant. Either that or they really expect anything from me and are unfazed by it. Nobody connects it to the kokopellihedrons on my social studies, science, and Italian notebooks, or to the hot-pink bunnies all over my band binder.
I’ll be getting mine in a few weeks – I ordered a black Resistance is Museless shirt and a PWT PWNS shirt. I’m definitely wearing them to skool!
No, people don’t seem to notice. I hate to say it, but they don’t.
I’ve only worn my musery gear out once, and that was with my friends who are liable to take strange things as normal, so that’s a no. However, whenever I wear my koko or urania shirts, people try to read them and I’ve had several inquiries. I don’t know what attracts people to them, tons of people have writing on their shirt that no one reads. I think I shall have to research this phenomena in more detail.
(5),
Well, the Muse Academy items were designed to pass unnoticed by the unwary. As for the others, we’ll just have to make them more outrageous, won’t we?
Sorrely. I sort of don’t have any money to buy musey things. If I had a sweatshirt, I would wear it everyday like I do with my CrossCountry sweatshirt.
I read what people have on their shirts/sweatshirts. I may be the only one but a few other people have told other people to hold still while they read their shirts.
I somlemly swear that I will get a musey something as soon as possible.
I don’t have any muse gear. Where do you get it?
MYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOZZZZZZZZ!!!!!!!!!!
Anybody like my new name? Everybody is inventing some pretty cool ones!
I fergot to mention: My friends don’t even blink when I do/wear/own/bring in/talk about/show off something insanly strange/wierd or just plain crazy.
Like my mp3 player. Didn’t have very good battery life: about an hour… Sooo I spliced a larger battery on the back. No reaction. Skipping down the hall way singing the and a bottle of rum song from potc:dmc. Not a reaction… I’ll stop now…
(7, RC),
Be wary of encouraging me to be more outrageous.
(9, Red-tailed HAWK),
To find Muse gear, click on the link in the blurb at the top of the thread, where it says “Musery Loves Company” in green.
Rebecca-thanks! I will show it to my parents and see what I can get.
(12, Red-tailed HAWK),
You are quite welcome. But please — glorious though your appellation be — please trim it down so it will fit more congenially into the “Recent Comments” section of the front page. People like to see a clue as to what your comment will be. Thanks!
I’m going to get Muser stuff for my b-day, so not long now. I’ve been wondering how people might react. I’ll tell you all after i get it.
I went around after school a few days ago sticking Kokopelli for Presidnet stickers on people. Nobody seemed to really mind, but I don’t think anyone noticed them either, or understood. Maybe I should go walk around with a big posterboard saying something about MUSE. Free Advertising!
I have a big HBP shirt that I altered a bit to fit my better. I’ve gotten a few comments on it from one or two people who are likely to appreciate the coolness of wearing a t-shirt with a giant hypnotic bunny face on it.
Two other people have told me that when they fist saw it, they thought I was a wearing a shirt with the playboy bunny on it.
As for my Muse Academy notebook, only my friends who know that I’m a Muse geek have noticed and then they just either rolled their eyes or laughed.
I also have Pwtpwns magnet that I keep in my locker, but no one else really sees that.
Rebecca-I was getting a little tired of the long title, anyway. I am just testing the 8) to see if it comes out as a cool-smilie.
Go Koko for president!!!!!!!
It didn’t. I’ll just go back to being 8) Red-tailed HAWK! (heeheehee…) No, no, no. MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!! (just kidding) Here’s me!:

We (THF and I) just got a gigantic (but comfortable) regular HPB w/signatures sweatshirt, and a big Muse Academy t-shirt. They’re great! I wore them to school, but nobody really said anything. But they are so cool!!!!! THF, for Christmas, made me a home-made shirt that says “Got Pwnage?” on the front, with a picture of Koko holding a koko for president sign, and on the back there’s a picture (very nicely drawn) of Robert’s liscence plate. There are also a lot of Kokopellis and HBPs on the sleeves of the shirt. That got a few more looks at school…probably because it’s home-made, but I’m not sure! Clothes don’t usually get looks at my school. I go to an arts school, and for some reason everyone wears crazy clothing.
No comments, sadly. Except from my friends, but they don’t count(sorry guys) cause I told them I was getting it and when I got it and I rant about Muse to them all the time.
I want the the siggie sweatshirt… hehehe… time to convince parents that I’m a needy child.
More interesting clothing would be
coolcrisp. Considering it as an upgrade from shirts with neon pink rabbits on them, what could be more outrageous? Likely I’ll want one immediately. Sorry about rhythms in that, still half thinking in haiku from my last post.Hey, can we have a t-shirt in the Koko for Prez section with just the picture of Koko holding up his “Kokopelli for President” sign?
A black one with a white outline of Koko filled inw ould be really cool… if we could get one…
C’we have a t-shirt with Feather on it that says:
Cows are friends, not food!
And he’s petting Bo?
I have a wondertastical hpb t-shirt that says Resistance is Museless on it. I swear, I got a lot of stares when I wore it to school.
23 (Milady the most…) That a good idea, are you vegetarian?
What does “throcking” mean? I couldn’t find it in the dictionary.
signed,
hahaha!85!
It’s great.
Here are some things people have said when looking at my signature sweatshirt:
“Pent-Pelt-Petata-Petika-pentatonoxic?-Pentomonic?”
(Someone trying to pronounce “Pentatonikk”)
“What are moozes?”
(Someone wondering waht “Muses” are)
“What the heck it pwit pwions?”
(Someone wondering why it says “pwt pwns” in the searchbox.)
“What the heck is this?…. Tell me!”
(Someone wondering what it all means… O__o)
“Niiiiiiice……..”
(someone saying “Nice”)
That is pretty much it.
My padre thought the HPB was the Playboy Bunny.
My sister calls me a dork.
Other people don’t really notice. My one friend thought the sig. shirt was cool, though.
22, 23 – great ideas! Those would be awesome!
Wha’s teh e-mail again?
gapa@ blankity blank blank?
[It’s gapa@musefanpage.com . –Robert]
Thank you!
Hey, what’s up with http://www.cafepress.com/musery.97753049?
I lurve it all! Resistance is Museless, MWAHAHAHAHA…
(31, Spider Plant) Can you be more specific? I didn’t notice a problem when I checked just now.
(31) I didn’t see anything wrong with it…
I don’t understand the name of this thread. Will someone explain?
No reaction. Seriously. But i guess my friends are used to all sorts of weird stuff. I mean, bill and her ebayed plaid pants of some significance that i forget and hunter with his fake emo that you want to strangle and andy with his geeky google shirts and dan with who knows what…you develop sort of an immunity. XD
34- If you bought a shirt, have people said anything to you about it?
36 – Yeah… I understand the point of this thread, but I don’t understand the name…
37-“Geeks” are what we are, right? And “Chic” (pronounced Sheek) is a type of fashion that you can add to something, like “Lightbulb Chic”, the fashion of lightbulbs, or “Bozo Chic” the fashion of wearing clown clothes.
None of those things are what you’d call “Fashion” but when you add “Chic” they become fashionable apparently.
Speaking of which, check out the MuseBlog-enhanced chicness of Rebecca Lasley’s (a.k.a. Lady Bunniful’s) car:
I got my Geek Chicness today! I’m going to wear my PWT PWNS shirt tomorrow.
Omigosh! Squeeeeee! I didn’t know that the Pwt Pwns shirts actually got made! I didn’t know that there was any Muse gear besides the shirts on the back of the magazine! :moneyhunt:
How did people get their signatures on the Muse Academy shirts? Me is jealous.
Someone noticed my sweatshirt today. In tech. Some normal girl asked where I got it, I said online, she asked about the pwt pwns on it, I said it’s long and complicated to explain don’t ask. I need better comebacks. Also, in warmups while waiting for the jazz band concert my teacher/conductor saw the hpbs on my binder but we were playing and he couldn’t comment.
43- Smile secritively and hand her a muse subscription card.
What, you people don’t carry extras around with you?? Weirdos.
Can we Puh-Leez have the classic HPB on a cap? Pleez?
Sure! How’s this?
THANKS!!!!! I must now go inform my mother! TO THE BUNKER!!!
Dun duh duh DUN!!!!!!
I ordered oneeeeee! Dun duh dee DUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
39- TAT IS TEH PWNAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Way to go Lady Bunniful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
42- A little while ago there was a thread; you sent a siggie to the GAPA and they put them all in. Mine’s in the corner,
…So here’s my Geek Chic story. I wore my PWT PWNS shirt a few days ago. During Chorale, one of the guys I sit next to saw my Koko sticker on my musik folder, and was like “No way! I didn’t know anyone else in the skool knew Muse existed!” Then I showed him my shirt, and he thought it was awesome.
Brilliant! Does he know about the blog?
51 – OMG!! Tell him about MB!
I asked him if he ever came to the blog, but he said no…
well tell him to come to the blog
yeah gawd tell him to come to the blog. its where i spend like all my time just doing nothing. and noones ever on when i am. *depressed sigh* neway this has nothing to do with muse wear but i wore these really nerdy toe socks to school expecting to be beat into strawberry shake, but all these people were like DUDE THOSE ARE AWESOME!!! so i got all overconfident and wore my shirt i made for muse and i got beat into strawberry shake.
My HPB hat came today! *Dances*
soon… sooooooooo soon… ive almost talked my sister into buying one as a very early bday present…. so very close….
“Resistance is Museless”
i really want geek chic stuff…mayb 4 my bday
