I thought this went a bit over the top with the barber thing, but I liked that trials of honour got a look in. Obviously pat has the same bumber sticker making kit as phillipe.

EDIT: Oh is that Nader thing a Jesus giraffe with balls? Or is it meant to be implying evolution above such idiotic religious notions etc?

I love Pat's incoherent barber-related rage. You just know in two weeks all the barber stickers will be covered with stickers protesting the copulation of whatever service profession Pat gets a hate-on for next. (Man, should I even ask how you convey with stick figures that a couple engaged in coitus are barbers?)

I love the concept of a "Calvin peeing on a giant block in which your least favorite cultural concept is written" bumper sticker. I wish I could buy one. And write, like, "OBJECTIVISM" in. Or, you know, whatever philosophical or artistic works and/or concepts you hate.

Actually the honk if you love jesus sign is overlapping the barber sign. So this might be a more long term fixation of his. Or maybe the jesus one is the new one. Just overanalyzing a bit.

That honestly never occurred to me, which is odd becuase normally thats the first place my mind would go.

Yeah, why couldn't Pat hate something that's easier to represent in stick form like chefs? You could give the barbers scissors but then they might just look like gardeners.

I think my block would say either "Celebrity Culture" or something.

But I must admit that the Jesus one is funny. All he needs now is a ribbon sticker that's turned sideways for no discernable reason. Wtf is up with that?

I always thought of Pat as too uptight to swear, and therefore too uptight to use sweary bumper stickers.  Having slap-dash bumper stickers all over your car implies a certain lack of anal-ity that seems too un-Pat like to me.  But then I'm the daughter of an Auto Body Repair Teacher, hence in my world nothing is allowed to ruin the finish.  Nothing!

Yea, most of the barber related stickers could've been done away with. However, I did like the "Arrest Them All" sticker. That just sums up what Pat thinks of the whole world, barbers or not.

EDIT: Oh, and I like Grieg. Take this, Pat!  8===> - - - - - - 0-:

You could have the stick figures next to a barber pole.  That would probably convey the idea properly.

I would like Calvin peeing on POST MODERNISM.

Could Calvin pee on Jesus? Where in the bible does it say you can't pee on Jesus?

I would estimate that if you're in the market for a sticker of Calvin peeing on Jesus, you're probably not particularly concerned with what the bible has to say about Jesus' policies on urine.

And as far as Calvin's involvement, Calvin can pee on ANYTHING.  However - it might be possible for Calvin to create a Ford logo so large that he himself could not pee on it.

Could Calvin pee on himself?  If so, would the pee-ee Calvin be peeing on another Calvin, and so on and so forth until basically you'd have a full circlejerk of Calvins peeing on himself?

Calvin can't pee on himself. His being peed on or not being peed on is divinely mandated from long before his birth, and his actions will reflect rather than alter that mandate.
