Peter re-paints the sistine chapel as the obey giant logo...wicked!
i wonder how many people got the reference.
another classic episode
- Meeklo0
probably a lot..
obey is pretty big..
- Point50
Yeah.
Obey went from zero to Threadless- like in like 2 years.
- MrDinky0
didnt he refer Obey as Andre the Giant?
am i missing something?
or is Obey thing suuposed to andre the giant
- GreedoLives0
...and it's cause the whole obey thing got started at RISD, so it's technically a Rhode Island thaaaang.
- randoman0
I thought it was part of Urban Outfitters.

yeah i meant how many people outside the design community would have gotten the reference, i think it's pretty obscure for the general public, but that's the beauty of family guy.
- MrDinky0
i see Obey everywhere now though. it has officially crossed in to main stream
- tehgee0
are u kidding me? my MOM knows about the hole obeay thing not to mention shepard did ad campaigns for scion its not so "underground"
- nick0
everybody knows obey
dinky, its "obey giant" and the logo is andre's face.
- foreign0
every other student has an obey t-shirt or poster, whether they know what it is or not.
- GreedoLives0
well what is it really? a bunch of self-contained hype.
so is not knowing what it is kinda subversive? am i talking out of my ass?
- MrDinky0
yeah i am not really in to art too much to know the detail....
i should .. but i am just stupid
- randoman0
greedo dont sewat it dude, mainstream is the new subversive.
Also, the original ATG's werent Obey, they were "Andre the Giant has a Possy". It turned to Obey after it became popular and more so because of the fact I think. It's a play on old mass produced propaganda posters.

"...and somewhere Scott Bao is plowin a girl he doesn't even know."
- Meeklo0
I think more people got the obey thing, than the clown at the end of the episode..
- _niko0
yeah missed the clown reference
- vwsung18t0
what was he saying about andre the giant scaring children?
- Jaline0
Really? Ha, I should've watched it with my friends, as they watch the show all the time. It would've been nice to be the only one to see something and shout it out.
But....I don't watch Family Guy...soo...
