Sweet Jesus this is awesome.  That last line is probably my favorite of the year.  

Also, it is awesome that Nice Pete has finished his novel.  I look forward to its publication.

[MSC]

You know it would not be the first time Nice Pete has done this.

Other nice things in this strip:
-- "Klamp"...you do not want Nice Pete klamping your hand
-- Pat's "before you ask, yes, it's a mixed blessing."
-- Pete's increasing anger signified by more lines under his eyes.
-- Pit hair...nice touch.

As I've always suspected, Nice Pete is the kind of guy who, if you're not wearing a shirt, will grab you instead by the loose skin beneath your neck.

I also like the visual parallel between KLAMP and the falcon grip in "Trials of Honor."  Some kind of symbolism, perhaps?  That sly Onstad.

God bless Nice Pete.

I enjoy Pat twirling his finger as he says "Nuh-uh, mister!" The dude should just come out of the closet already.

Isn't it odd how Nice Pete could be viewed as the sanest of all the characters?

Also, it is a mark of Pat's pathology that he is perfectly oblivious to any external concern (e.g. social conventions, other people's feelings, his own safety) while he pursues what he believes to be right and proper.

ONSTAD I WOULD TOTALLY BUY A SHIRT OF NICE PETE CRAPPING PAT'S BRAINS BACK INTO HIS SKULL YIFF YIFF

See, I told you dressing up a little for Visitation Day will make you and the people around you feel that much better.

*points at last panel in excited manner*
YES!
AWESOME!

[evan]

See, Pat could have apologized and got away after Pete lets go of him, during the fifth panel. He's such a dick that he has to stick around to insult Picasso.

Will Pat be murdered?

No, I don't think he will.

Look, convicted murderers need copy editing just like everybody else. And it's the duty of smart people everywhere to lord their smartness over those beneath them.

[Carlos del Vaca]

Will Pat be murdered?

Yes yes yes.  Have Pat go to hell, where he will be a dick to Satan, who will then jab Pat with his pitchfork, have spiny demons eviscerate him, and other entertaining hijinks.

I dunno, Pat's always so pissed off at everything that sometimes I wonder if he is in hell.

[acoxcae]

Pat in hell would indeed be awesome, because he would piss off Satan when his carob-covered prunes wouldn't set in the heat, and then he would be ushered further and further down, until he was the damn Mayor of the City of Dis.  This job would suit Pat nicely.

That said, Nice Pete has the right idea.  Both about Picasso, and about Pat.  I hope his book is good - at least, I hope it doesn't have any glaring typos; that would damage his artistic credibility.

I laughed loudly in my cubicle today. been a while since that has happened.
