Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for December 14, 2013

Good point.

Missing does not give good points.

Um, Calvin – you are throwing with intent to hit. That doesn’t get you off the naughty list.

It’s a nice theory. Doubt if Susie buys it, tho’.

God helps her!

I SO remember a couple of mean kids up the street when we were in grade school. Avoided them at all costs. Now that I’m older, I wonder if they grew out of it or ended up in jail.

Santa’s not going to buy that, Calvin. The intent is still there.

But, what would Watterson draw, when Calvin would always be good? It would become more and more boring!

They’ve probably already got enough coal stored up to heat the house until Calvin reaches adulthood…

Can’t hit the ground with your hat…gonna make a great golfer, kid

Oh yes it DOES count, Calvin!

Susie will get back at him when they get married.

Calvin knows some pretty big words, don’t he?

Calvin has to get some points for using the word "sanctimonious’, though.

Throwing three snowballs so quickly one after another throws Calvin’s aim off …or, in Calvin’s voluptuous vocabulary, “Propelling frozen projectiles in such rapid succession adversely affects Calvin’s aim.”

The sanctimonious and the sucky.

Let’s hope so, Calvin.xxx

Calvin is SO gonna’ marry Susie when they grow up…

He’s still trying to hit her. I’d like to see how that flies when he uses that to try to justify his actions to police. I don’t see that ending well.

Where did Calvin get his vocabulary? I don’t think I even knew the word “sanctimonious” existed when I was in first grade!

The key here is sanctimonious. She Started It!
