Principal Nichols! Can I paint a mural in the cafetorium? We already have a mural, Nate. But that's just a painting of trees and flowers! Mine would show great figures in world history! Hm! You've got wuite a lineup here! Yes, I do! Now, who is...? That's me. Right next to Zach Galifianakis.

I guess it would be only fair because he was the one who came up with the idea. Still, that is one big ego.

Who is Zach Galifianakis??? ?

@Frogman_tg – he’s a so-so comedian/actor who specializes in playing oblivious characters.
Funny how one person’s sense of “greatness” is determined by age and generation.

Not only does it cut down on the illegal graffiti in town, it changes constantly and usually has some great pieces of art on it.

I saw an article in the paper (yes, an actual dead-tree publication) on the Latrobe (Pa.) High School collection of art. Forget the mural, Nate, check this out!http://www.americanprofile.com/articles/high-school-students-collect-priceless-art/

“… Especially if they don’t sign the work. "Nice try. Nate signs everything, even his Dr. Cesspool comics. His character is self-obsessed by definition, but that’s why we all like him. 30+ years ago, I thought the same way, except I couldn’t draw a toy pistol out of a holster. I’d like to say it gets better, but…
