Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for July 12, 2021

I hope it isn’t the car again.

Calvin…..blame it on Hobbes.

Does dad also love Hobbes?

“Nothing, but there is a policeman at the door”

Maybe Calvin put glue in dad’s shoe?

Isn’t this a repeat of a recent strip?

Always a problem when “really, really…” meets reality.

Dad’s light begins to dawn in the third panel…

Is it possible to lovingly murder someone?

Calvin denounced him to the Red Guards…

Now Dad, you never expected Calvin to be a perfect little angel, did you???? ;D

Dun dun dah!

Well son, do you mean really, really, really bad or disowned and move to Antarctica bad?

That moment you dread, over and over.

You remember the car?

Or, as I say to my ex-wife: “I can tell you’re building up to something, so just go ahead an tell me what it is.”

Is there a military school in Switzerland for 6 year olds?

Well Dad, do you remember when the basement wasn’t a swimming pool?…

When has it never been really, really bad?

The suspense is killing, eh Dad?

Beat him, Daddy, eight to the bar…..lovingly.

I can love you with all my heart and still get mad at you.

Love Dad’s expression in panel 3. He’s been here before…

That should been your first clue dad.

Worse than usual?!

It’s not what he did. It’s what he’s planning.

Send him to live with dennis or the melon head kids!!!

Calvin’s next question should be something like, “You think tough love is bad, don’t you?”

“I’ll give you 27 guesses!”

I love Dad’s “Uh-oh” expression in the third panel!

Five strips later this week and Dad makes the exact same expression.

“ Dad, when the swat team shows up, just say you don’t know where I am.”

There are so many possibilities, dad. Chill out, your kid is on to another adventure.
