Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for January 26, 2018

I was never great at paying attention in school either.

Totally clueless!

Calvin’s coping mechanisms would work great if he was taken prisoner by a foreign power.

You’re not talking his language.

I’m guessing the comics came out late?

Hah! ‘Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus’ in comic form!

I am really on Susie’s side here. Calvin is being a little s***. Ilove Calvin, but his behavior in this thread is terrible. I hope justice is served.

I was Calvin in school.

She needs to just forget about him, do the report herself, and save her grade.

My father loved reports in school and was good at it. He considered being teamed up against your will with do-nothings to be cheating on the teacher’s part. So I would alway be the captain for any group project and he would write the parts for the kids who didn’t turn anything in by the last night. That way I got the good grade I deserved and the do-nothings got a good grade that they didn’t deserve. The teachers eventually caught on that some of the kids were not doing their work, but never realized who WAS doing it.

Yes Calvin, there is intelligent life on this planet, but not the kind that can cope with you…

Quickly set the phaser to stun and get back to your spaceship!

It’s like they are already married!

I’ve had co-workers give me that same look.

It’s always best to remain calm.

Odd language. Every word starts with “g”

I always enjoyed having such a study partner as Calvin, actually. I found a way to make it work. I’d turn in the finished report but it would be marked with two names on the cover sheet, followed by two sections; one with my name over the finished project and my partner’s name over an equal number of blank pages. (Of course, the star fullback of the football team beat the stuffings out of me once, so you could say I got double marks on that one.)

I’m with Susie. Without Calvin doing any work then she will fail too. Right?

At last I was right : see my yesterday comment

Spaceman Spiff’s super-reflexes are no match for the angry alien as it slaps him with a slimy tentacle!!

Calvin’s instinct is to shoot first and answer questions later.

Blah, blah Ginger
