Decapitated heads

A late addition to my New York Comic-Con posts: the Lulubell/Velocitron Decapitated Heads, which I knew I loved from the moment I clapped eyes on 'em.

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

How can you have a decapitated head? If you remove the head from a head you end up with nothing.

  Yes. Decapitated body, disembodied head.

    “Severed head” is better. I’ve always thought “decapitated head” was a strange expression.

PSA (Pedantic Service Announcement): The word “decapitated” literally means “without a head”. So, “decapitated head” actually means “headless head”. Thank you.

As other pedants have noted, “decapitated head” means “a head from which the head has been removed.” “Severed head” works better. Sorry, it’s a compulsion.

Would you like some dehydrated water to go with your decapitated head? :)
