the button factory

We are three ladies, who make pins by day and are badasses by night. Witness the magic that is us.

Culture Clash

  • Ritzel: Beta! It's your favorite: rap music.
  • Beta: Oh yeah, right.
  • ("New York" by Jay-Z featuring Alicia Keys plays in the background....)
  • Beta: Feel it!
  • Ritzel: That is the whitest thing you could say.
  • (laughter ensues)
  • Beta: You know, I hate this song. What is this? The Black Eyed Peas?
  • Ritzel: No, THAT is the whitest thing you could've said.

Happy (belated) Halloween!

Passing the Time

  • Ritzel: Isn't it weird how you say "GABY" and how it's different from "BABY." Like, the first consonant changes the way you say the word.
  • Lindsey: Yeah, I've totally thought that before...
  • Ritzel: No way!
  • <Ritzel turns around to face Lindsey>
  • <Lindsey's face meets Ritzel's and reads "Uhh, seriously?">
  • Lindsey: Looks like somebody's biological clock is ticking.
  • Ritzel: Not even. I was just writing a note for Gaby on my pink heart shaped Post-it. Uhhhh....

When we're not discussing pins...

  • <Ritzel turns around to see who just passed behind her.>
  • Ritz: Was that one of my favorite ladies in shipping?
  • Beta: How many favorite ladies do you have in shipping??
  • Ritz: Two.
  • <momentary pause>
  • Beta: Slut.
