Hey y'all. Its that time again and again I slack on the actual fashion criticism. Sometimes I like to complain about a number of things and they are connected to fashion in obtuse ways. Over here in Library Land the State Archives of Michigan just launched their new website for Seeking Michigan, the digitization project displaying the amazing diversity of Michigan past. They also put up some old documentaries about Michigan on Vimeo and Youtube. I really like "Buck Fever" because it reminds me of the old deer camp my family used to go to up North and they coyly leave out the copious drinking involved in Deer Hunting.
Onto the Comics!

Ah St. Patrick's Day, the one Catholic Holiday I choose to celebrate or at least I used to celebrate. Because like most red blooded Americans of non-Irish decent I used to get horribly drunk on St. Patty's Day, however last year was the year to take the cake. I was in a van and I threw up in one of those green plastic hats, much like the one being worn by the Gentleman in the last panel. Once you throw up in a novelty hat lying alone in a parked rented van because you're too drunk to be in the bar you start to re-evaluate your life choices. So this year I didn't go out and low and behold I didn't get sick, I'm like a genius or some shit!

And don't forget kid he'll also take your parents, dog and everyone you ever knew and loved. So I don't know if you should want his love so much as fear him because the dude is batshit crazy. He told his first follower to bring his only son up to a mountain and cut his throat to prove his allegiance. Eventually he said he was joking but do you want to mess with a crazy motherfucker like that? He could give you boils just to prove a point to Satan if he felt like it. God shows his love by saving your life in a car accident but leaving you a vegetable who shits his bed for the rest of his life. By the way if you haven't figured it out yet I'm an atheist and a bitter one too!

Dammit Herb, Polyester is a fiber not a pattern. Those pants could quite possibly be made of polyester but old people are known to wear plaid pants, especially the old farts who play golf. Luckally for everyone Tiger Woods made it cool for black folks to get onto golf courses but Herb doesn't seem like the Golfing type which doesn't make sense for him to be wearing those pants. Then again, possibly unbeknownst to him, Plaid pants are actually quite fashionable...
If you're a tall, blond, white woman or the Bizzaro Herb.

Sometimes people like to express their individuality through their clothing choices, particularly though clothes that defy the usual Fashion Norm. This little girl wants to scream out to the world, "Hello world! I seem to have dropped my helmet and which way back to the short bus?"
Good night y'all and have a merry morrow unless God chooses to make an example out of you and smites you for funzies.

Honestly, I'm just confused at why that comic strip decided to steal the likeness of Charlie Brown...
If you're going to steal, take it from Microsoft, steal a lesser known something. It's easier to take it over.
