My heart skipped a beat, I pressed a knuckle to my mouth, my eyelashes fluttered wildly as I tried to hold back my tears as I read this cutting review:
Mr Geoffrey Deene of Fashion Wire Daily, I still think you'd look sodding STUPID if you wore this anywhere:
NOOOOOOoooooooOOOOoooo!!! But I already ordered it for my Spring wardrobe! Whatever shall I dooooooo?

Don't listen to him; it's perfect for you, PZ.
I think it would look sexy on you, PZ. Especially if you also do the make-up and wear the little skirt.
Didn't I see that exact outfit on Project Runway 2? I think Santino made it.
I, for one, welcome our crochet cephalopod overlords!!
Post it here, so we hall have a good laugh seeing you in this garb..... ;-)
Wear it with pride, PZ. It's very much just you. We all await a picture posted.
PZ, do you still have the legs to wear a short skirt like that?
I think it would look sexy on you, PZ. Especially if you also do the make-up and wear the little skirt.
Oh gods. I would pay good money not to see that.
The readers are so harsh on that blog. They didn't like the hysterically adorable tampon covers. http://whatnottocrochet.wordpress.com/2008/01/12/tampon-cozies/
okay, i'll fess up to ordering a "I [squid] NY" shirt, but i draw the line at knitwear
... unless it were a Star Trek XI uniform. that'd be totally worth it
Well, I'm not a fan of the *pictured* hat/bonnet, but I do like the concept. I think it'd look better if it was a more anatomically correct squid--with two long tentacles as the drawstrings for the hat, and the rest shorter and decorative.
See, this is why I stopped bothering with clothes. You just can't go wrong with a few vines.
When you wear that with a skirt, you should post it on your Facebook!
While a cephalopod is a fine looking animal, I don't know that I'd like to be seen in one of them.
Perched smartly on my shoulder, or cuddled in one arm, yes.

Well, surely he was talking about the skirt. The hat's obviously the top of fashion.
That hat, with this swine-flu face mask would make you the talk of the party.
I have a unitard made of real Saskatchewan Squid Skin, but I only wear it on bowling night.
Don't lie. Everyone knows that Saskatchewan is a figment of a diseased imagination.
Someone needs to get away from the pressures of life and relax and view the frozen waterfall... Jesus.
I did spend a drunken weekend in Saskatoon once, it wasn't very memorable.
The hat looks a lot like the one that Dumb Donald from Fat Albert wears.

I want to see PZ in that outfit doing the runway strut.
Saskatchewan: North Dakota's North Dakota. (Or is that Manitoba?)
And just now, as I am perfectly balanced and in order (after starting to watch Eric Hovinds video...) you present this irresistible gear. The devil again, I guess. Wonder what my passengers at the MIHQ will say when I show up in this.
Newfie @20:
What wasn't memorable, the night or Saskatoon?
So this Canadian decides to get away from it all. He gets on a plane and 24 hours later he's in Alice Springs, Australia. He's sitting in a pub when this Aussie comes up to him and asks "Where are you from, stranger?"
"Saskatoon, Saskatchewan."
The Aussie goes back to his table and one of his mates asks "So, where's the stranger from?"
"I don't know, he doesn't speak English."
That hat is awesomeness!!!
Is it just me or is that squiddies eyes looking in different directions. ...Marty Feldman squid.
At any rate go ahead and wear it PZ and be sure and act FABULOUS!
Neither the squid nor the model it's eating looks to be enjoying the experience.
Hey! It just occurred to me than I haven't seen the inimitable Cuttlefish lately. Anyone know why not?
Lee, he is spending more time with the Cuttlefishlets. Check his blog.
Hmmm. We are trying to scrape up the money to get a new car. This opens up some interesting avenues of internet extortion.
Suddenly I know what to do with all this leftover yarn. What color should I use?
Does it matter?
I suppose some colour schemes might induce vomiting earlier. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing…?
I was being silly. I have friends from Saskatoon. I was there for a weekend sales conference back in the late 80s. 8 hour drive across the prairie was a bit boring for this bayman, but from what I remember, Saskatoon is a very pretty city, and actually has some hills, so you can see the city.
ha! That one is going in the old jokebank.
Oh man! That reminds me of the squid hat I made a while back O.o
I just went and took some pics of it. Lalala:

PZ, you MUST wear that hat with this scarf.
I just showed this picture to my 2 year old granddaughter and she said "That's funny!"
I can't believe that ANYONE takes fashion seriously.
you're not fooling anyone PZ. its not for you, its for your trophy wife. I don't even want to speculate on all those unchristian things you do behind closed doors....
So that's what female Oompa Loompas look like. Huh.
Patricia, OM:
...in four-inch heels. And maybe a feather boa.
we read a story in school many many years back in which the punchline for the renitent kids was 'eat it or wear it'.
Squid hat FTW.
It's fierce.™
It looks like our Friday cephalopod came a day early this week...
Holy flashback... for a second there, I thought I was looking at a still from a Sid & Marty Krofft show!
Tell me that model doesn't look like an extra from Sigmund & the Sea Monster (or perhaps Witchiepoo's lost daughter)...
Interesting, the PZ <-> Antipodean connection continues. That little number was part of Australian Fashion Week.
(I only know that 'coz I stumbled across the photos on the local paper site here)
(seriously)
(ummm...gotta get back to watching the footy now... the 'Pies are leading the 'Roos by 42 in the 3rd quarter...)
Mr Deene is absolutely right, PZ.
The candy pink detailing would totally drain your complexion. I suggest getting this in a combo of teal and baby blue; soooo much more you.
I don't know... when you consider the octopus orgy, it starts to look strangely erotic.
Hmm. Now you mention it, my parents claim to have been to Saskatchewan. But they're the only people I've met in person who'll actually admit to such a thing... And these are also the very same people who were so very economical with the truth when it came to that whole Santa Clause thing...
Coincidence? I think not.
(/Now Manitoba, I'm pretty sure that exists. This on its own, however, does not necessarily imply anyone should go there.)
Well, now I know where to go to get my Zoidberg costume this Halloween.
That girl is one of The Cthulhettes (pron. Cool hat). It's the latest grrl gang. This year's suicide girls
This is evidence for the existence of gynophobic homosexuality.
