Now all you need, Calvin, is something to scrape the paper with… ;)

@watmiworiBarf is made by an Iranian compani. Barf (baa-ruf) is Pharsi for snow.

I always thought ’barf ’ was onomatopoeic.

From American Heritage College Dictionary; Barf; verb, slang, to vomit.

Do you think Van Gogh started this way. Or maybe Jackson pollack?

“barf” (verb): “to vomit or retch,” 1960, American English slang, probably imitative. Related: “Barfed”; “barfing”. As a noun, from 1966. “Barf bag” meaning “air sickness pouch” attested from 1966.

So 64 colors isn’t enough?

Barf is not something I liked creating – or re-creating.

News Flash – Crayola adds two new colors to their 64 box – Barf and Poop!

Not necessarily. “Fart” originally meant “went” — related to fare, ferry, etc. — and was a euphemism.

lol XD

I knew those yucky colours were going to lead to something,…well… yucky.

I was in a sales meeting with a new salesman named Ralph. He excused himself to the restroom. As we overheard from across the hall, there was a reason he was named Ralph.

@A Common ’taterIt is an AMERICAN colloquialism.

“Slang Dictionary” Yeah, I’ve more than one.

BARF in the animal food world is an acronym for Biologically Appropriate Raw Food or Bones And Raw Food. Usually ground up chicken for cats, chicken and veggies for dogs.

I used to do this sort of thing. Never to illustrate what Calvin is drawing, however.
