After I replied to this, I started wondering if people at Hot Topic had ever visited this site. It looks like they have; I have 5 visits from a "Hot Topic Inc" service provider in the past month. Lol! On one of their visits, they found the site by googling "kandi." On another, they googled "hot topic kandi." lol!

I wasn't bothered by the bracelets, but it's cool that they responded. Social media can be a powerful thing. I wonder if by doing this they're admitting that it was supposed to be kandi, or if they just felt like they had to do something to stop the angry messages. I think the kit is silly though. There aren't enough letter beads to write anything you want. If they really want to prove that they understand kandi, they should sell actual bead boxes and string.

I don't like this idea too much, but at the same time, I'm amazed they did something-- hahaha
