Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for November 08, 2014

Mom, I’m sure it isn’t the first time Calvin has done that.

You really ought to pay more attention to parental warnings, Calvin! =-O

Some people only learn things the hard way. If then….

Memories of little boys at my university, during “summer sports camp”, trying to gross each other out (and everyone else in hearing distance) over lunch. “You know what that smells like? You know what that looks like?” As “den mother” to a bunch of Latin American exchange students on a summer program, I had found some real jalapeños (not easy in those years in that place) and put them down in vinegar for a week or two. The jar got passed at every meal, some taking peppers, some just the sauce. Finally disgusted beyond patience, we offered the gross-out gang some peppers. It was hysterical—they all tried some, and passed the jar—and not one of the little brats warned the others what to expect! They all sat silent, chewing, gulping milk, and turning red in the face. They sat in another area after that.

I guess they don’t have alarm warnings on homemade chili.

And water makes it worse. Bread, Calvin!!

Brain Freeze might have been less harmful.

@frank coronaI think, it’s German for great or big alarm.

I love the artwork in this one!

MPeters: Milk absorbs the capsaicin, which determines the alarm rating.

There is hot sauce such as Tabasco; then there is HOT sauce…

“ACK ACK!”

hee hee, she said “spew”!

cheese or chocolate are also good mouth on fire remedies.

Oh, great parenting. Never mind that your son is suffering at the moment.

FinnyGirl: Two root words, Groß large; and glock bell, clock, alarm, etc. The pistol probably came from a maker’s name (with a clock or bell manufacturing background).

“At least it didn’t come out the other end.”Yet. Give it time. Been there suffered that & no T-shirt… :-D
