Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for January 30, 2019

Don’t worry, Calvin, tapeworms aren’t finicky eaters.

But you still grossed out Susie.

Good thing Calvin doesn’t get graded on lunch.

Really! She thinks a teacher named Wormwood is going to be grossed out by the mention of a tapeworm.

Does this count as their first date?

Reminds me of most of the boys that tried to get my attention in elementary school. LOL

hah- classic response from Calvin! I love him trying to gross out Suzie. I like how Watterson was the smartest of the comic strip writers, but had the most lowbrow jokes at times. He was really clever.

Calvin wins on a technicality!

Tapeworm: “Hey! Where’s my cookie?”

So Calvin has many strategies to gross out others. He could grow up to be an Animator. WIN!

He must really like Susie to annoy her like that.

You seem malnourished: are you suffering from internal parasites?

Thru the lips & past the gums. Look out tapeworm, here it comes.

the lunchtime strips are just wonderful!

Mrs. Wormwood is cowering in the corner of the teacher’s lounge. Calvin is the lunch room monitor’s problem now.

Cracked me up!!!

At least is the second time that Calvin cheat Susie on lunch time . This make of him a professional .

I hope Calvin has his tapeworm on a leash, and it has plenty of water.

Wormwood could take care of that tapeworm, if swallowed.

If Suzie were really game, she could parry with Calvin and maybe have a gross-out contest.

Ah the tapeworm way of keeping you thin while you eat like a bird. (Birds eat several times their weight every day.)

I believe Ms. Wormwood wishes Calvin was absinthe today…

Calvin did actually tell Susie what he had (well, wished he had to gross her out) – a tapeworm!

Their marriage is going to be a barrel of fun!
