Calvinism

Gigi: Hello?

Killa Gorilla: What are you doing?

G: Trying to get LP to work, but we're stuck in traffic.

KG: What the hell? I was just trying to go to Office Depot and South Lamar is a parking lot.

G: That's Austin in the rain. The city should just close when it rains, like it does when it's chilly.

KG: Yeah, everybody is driving like an asshole.

G: Ooh, speaking of assholes, there's someone in a huge truck next to us, and they have a sticker of Calvin in a sombrero, peeing on....something. Hmm...I can't see what he's peeing on.

KG: Is it the tiger?

G: No it looks like it's a word or words. Calvin's peeing on vocabulary.

KG: He's peeing on ideas.

LP: Maybe he's peeing on racism.

G: Ooh, yes, I bet that's it!

KG: Maybe the sombrero implies that he's peeing on immigration reform.

G: I think he's peeing on war...or man's inhumanity to man.

KG: Maybe he's peeing on a smaller Calvin, who is peeing on an even smaller Calvin, who is peeing on a nano-Calvin....and so on...

G: Dude, you're blowing my mind.

KG: It's not me, that guy in the truck is really deep. I'm behind a Volvo with a Keep Austin Weird sticker. Your guy is way more inspiring.

G: Seriously. I'm still in pajamas, but truck guy has made me think. I should thank him.

LP: Don't antagonize people when I'm in the car!

KG: The Calvin people are probably some big underground movement. Like Fight Club. So they can't talk about it.

G: Never talk about Calvin outside of....Calvin?

KG: This guy is a revolutionary.

G: That's funny, because it looks like he has a mullet.

KG: It keeps him under the radar.

G: When Calvin pees, people listen.

KG: To Calvin!

G: Calvin!
