Transcript:
Caulfield: You know Norman Rockwell's paintings? Frazz: Love Norman Rockwell. Caulfield: Yeah. But did you ever notice there's hardly ever anyone like me in his pictures? Frazz: I guess those were different times. Caulfield: If they had brown paint in the renaissance, they had brown paint in the 1950s. Frazz: Oh. I thought you meant the Gnarls Barkley t-shirt.
