To his credit, the designer seems to have a sense of humor about it.  He does not seem to want to taste the curb.

"An online comic strip shows a gang kicking and swearing at Mr. Connare"

I read it four times before I caught that.

I'm using that joke to break the ice if I ever meet a group of standoff-ish creative design people.

Hobo Joe, are you from Arkansas?

I lived in Arkansas for one year and there was a "shaved ice" stand called Hobo Joe's where we all went on a field trip ((i.e. - we walked down the sidewalk to get there)) in fourth grade. The teacher made me get sugar-free banana for some reason.

Please tell me that you are the 90 year old owner of that shaved ice stand. I want to try the blueberry.
