We know FSPers are porcupines. What does a Masshole in Anarchy In Your Head look like? If you're insane enough to be up this early, I'm taking suggestions, but I need them quick. I might draw some in today's strip but just some generic people could be fine.
Well the guy would have to have those rectangular black frame glasses... and he would be ectamorphic, have a sour look on his face as he drove his Prius. ;D

LOL, yeah. But I better come up with something new. I started to say "my own thing" but obviously that's not technically 100% correct if I'm picking your brains about it. It would be
our thing.
Here's the version I came up with a while back.
I think he looks weasley, like John Lynch.
I guess what I was aiming for was some animal to contrast the porcupines.
Ah, I get it, a little thickheaded this morning (I am). :blush: ;D
weasley is about right.
drawin' a blank
If you draw them as people, maybe all Massholes could be drawn in slave's (as in chattel) clothing - just tattered shirts and pants and no shoes. Or maybe Massholes always have a ball and chain around their ankle.

GIS of No Nose Gardner. The real deal the guy who Arse Face may be based on (is that even true, I don't know, but most people probably don't care.
How about bulgy eyes of astonishment, a cleft nose, and a small asterisk of a mouth.
Sheep. Duh. A bit cliche, but gets the point across.

Ummm, yeah. Duh. I don't know why I didn't think of that. You can even dress them up in wolf's clothing when they bring their statism up to NH. :)
Well if you want to reference Orwell, a pig. Masshole is a reference to Massachusetts drivers, who are to say the least, rather aggressive. "Make the other guy brake" type driving. Have you ever been driving in Massachusetts and used a turn signal to indicate you were changing lanes only to have the car you would be pulling in front of speed up to prevent that? That's a Masshole. With a pig you get the selfish greedy stereotype to play off of. If you want to reference the Free Lunch Project, you've got the badger . . .

My bad, that's a raccoon on FLP...
Your comment about pigs made me think about
Pink Floyds-Animals
http://www.pink-floyd-lyrics.com/html/animals-lyrics.html
Pigs
Dogs
and Sheep
Maybe a map of Massachusetts as hair, with the peninsula as a ponytail. That'll also give you a flat head. Boston could be marked with an asterisk, which is shaped like . . . Well, there you go.
Pigs=Greatest song ever.
Yeah, I was thinking the raccoon from FLP as well. But that wouldn't distinguish the guy as a Masshole specifically.
I like the pig as well. Make sure that it is wearing a red sox baseball cap. It reminds me of 'Animal Farm' and how the pigs made rules and then broke them. . .but expected all the other animals to abide by them.

It's just what yuppie types wear. Plus, if it's a giant anus then you have to distinguish the eyes somehow.
I wear glasses, just not the fashionable kind.
mine are quite fashionable, quite massholelike.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH you know a fellow Yankee when you read a post like this!

Not that there is anything wrong with that.
;D
Of course you are a true hipster... right, not some leftie, yuppie, poser.
You don't hold a cigarette like those communists in the movies right?
I always expect to see the hard lefties doing that backwards held cigarette thing.

I hate that The Yankee's chose to be called that, because to me it's always meant a New Englandah first and the team a distant 100th.

I actually quit 8 months ago now. . yay! I held my butts in the "power smoke" position. Just to look manly.
I knew you had to be cool, with the Hendrix lyric. 8)
