Some people seem to prefer the quick and easy answers, and get annoyed when effort is required to reach a goal. I can understand this reaction from children like Calvin and that’s what makes it funny. I would hope adults realize this humor.

Since everybody is offending others this morning, let’s try offending people across the pond: Calvin – you need to be reborn as royalty. May not be exactly what you’re looking for, but closer than where you’re at right now.

Check your attitude Calvin. Pills and buttons can get you into lots of trouble. Not worth it.

I don’t think this was a “political” strip when Watterson drew it. What kid hasn’t wished they could clean their room or do their homework by waving a magic wand? It’s not a liberal or conservative thing…it’s a kid thing.

“Word to the wise – it doesn’t matter. They’re all crooks.”Exactly! Personally, I don’t see all that much difference in the job Obama has done and what happened during the Bush administrations.

At times, Calvin is extremely outspoken and opinionated. He also has very few friends. This can also apply to adults.

How does a cartoon from 1995 apply to Obama?The fact is, it is the conservatives who are obsessed with Obama and feel the need to attack him even in an apolitical setting such as Calvin & Hobbes.

This would be funny if so many on the left didn’t actually feel this way.
kaffekup about 9 years ago
Calvin certainly sounds like a republican to me here.

Mark Twain’s view of golf could apply to today’s thread:A funny strip ruined.
