Poster #174: Honolulu, HI, USA
Devin from Honolulu writes:
"It's official. The phenomenon has come full circle - through the
pacific ocean. This might probably be as far away from England as it
gets. Nowhere more remote, thats for sure. However, we must not forget
what this innocuous poster represents...
-- no matter where you go in the world, across oceans and through
cultures, there are people who, not only share Karl's values and
ideals, but care enough to go out and proudly spread the message just
for one last 30 minutes of escaping our hectic everyday lives, and
reveling in the charming simplicity that is Karl's mind.
It is a beautiful irony that Karl's outlook on life may not be as crazy
as it seems when compared to some of the insanity that is ever present
in all of our lives around the world; and that's why we all love
listening to him.
This is my tribute to the most unprecedented, widespread, cultural icon
of this generation whose fame is global and is based solely the shape
of his head."
Well said. If I were Karl, I'd cry after reading that. This poster is very far from the other posters. Could it actually be the loneliest Karl in the world? That makes me a little sad too.

Poster #173: Lund, Sweden
Jesper writes: "At the mathematical centre in Sweden; University of Lund, Karl is the main subject. Classes are dismissed, lecturers and professors argue about the perfectly spherical thing that is Karl Pilkington's head, as it's the roundest thing they've ever seen. Even IKEA's founder Ingvar Kamprad have noticed it's freakishly shape, and has put Karl's picture outside his own design centre, saying to his employees: "When I say I want it round, I want it as round as this!"
Great to see the first poster from Lund. Having visited the city many times, I think that it is one of my favorite places in Sweden.

Poster #134: Borås, Sweden
Johan sent this in from Borås. Great.
Johan really wants more podcasts, here is his message to Pilkers: "Karl Dilkington, you lazy little bald coconut cunt of a mollusk. Do the fucking podcast or I will have the Kambodian Midget Fighting Leauge make you look even more of a baboon-arse than you allready do!"

Poster #129: Great Boughton, Chester, UK
This one is from Josh in Chester. He writes: "poster made and put up by Josh Richards, since putting it up ive had many people ask me who karl pilkington is, i was shocked to find out how many people didnt so i feel i have done my bit and educated those around me."
Sorry for not posting your pics in little while, but I've been busy getting drunk and now having a hangover.
Ricky posted a few questions to Karl lovers in his blog. Here they are, let's see answers in the comments:
1. Why wouldn't Karl donate his eyes?
2. Why does Karl's dad like telephone boxes?
3. Why doesn't Karl self examine his testicles?
Easy questions for true fans.
There's even a Facebook group set up by Chris, join it if you're on Facebook.

Poster #124: University of Washington, USA
Alex writes: "This picture was taken outside the School of Art at the University of Washington. There are Cherry Blossoms in the back. They only bloom once a year. Didn't Karl only like art in school? Also I posted the poster on a cafe billboard. Doesn't Karl always hang out at cafes."

Poster #95: Cambridge, MA, USA
Roger writes: "This poster is plastered on the Harvard psychology faculty in Cambridge Massachusetts. We would just love to study Karl's brain... To see how the roundness affects his performance..."
We all would like see that study made.

Poster #94: El Paso, Texas, USA
Adam writes: "I printed posters for all over UTEP campus, which is located in El Paso, TX. I want everyone in the "Sun City" to be blinded by the complete roundness of his head. I plan on covering this city with his little manc head."
That sounds like a plan.
Karl, don't mess with Texas. More podcasts!

Poster #90: Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Poster #85: Guelph, ON, Canada
Colin writes: "Me and my brother (Cameron) and I have started to put up the posters around the University of Guelph Campus in Guelph, Ontario, Canada. Guelph is located just an hour west of Toronto and is near London, Ontario (where Ricky's father was born). Our next picture is hopefully going to be a monkey holding the poster since we used to work at a zoo and may have some old hook-ups."
Looking forward to that monkey photo.
