Calvin needs an Omnitrix then he would brake Moe’s arms and he would never be able to hit anything for a long time, Moe wouldn’t be as tough without his arms. And no one would know it was Calvin.
After I got my degree at university I returned to my old home town for a visit. I found out that the guy who had bullied me in high school was working a the local gas station. So I rented a beamer and brought it in for a fill up.
Moe has a great future in HR and Administration. Taking something that is perfectly fine the way it is and changing it just for the sake of change and to justify their own existence.
The sad thing is, not all bullies are big, dumb galoots like Moe – take my word for it, plenty of bullies are handsome, smart, charismatic and very popular, and just as bad.
I’m with Calvin. If you don’t like me, leave me alone. I have my own people; I don’t want you around any more than you want me around. The bully needs Calvin; Calvin doesn’t need the bully.
Too late. The teacher knows you, the principle knows you, the class bully knows you . . . and your typical behavior does not really scream “ignore me!”. Forget about ignoring. Work on “avoiding”.
We had a bully in school. A friend and I decided that together we were tougher than him. We beat the snot out of him and after that he left everyone in our class alone.
I was bullied from the time I started school until around 10th grade. What finally stopped it, I got in several fights where my crazy trumped my naturally gentle manner (I was the big kid, so I was a safe target as if / when I fought back, I’d be labeled the bully no matter what). In one case, I dragged a kid’s face over the parking lot. I got in a lot of trouble with the school (though not my family who always wanted me to fight back – my grandfather even gave me a $20 reward after the first fight), but my bullies started ignoring me. It still wasn’t a pleasant environment, but it was far better than being bullied. I was never really happy until college where I finally had friends. I’m not saying this is the only / best way to handle bullying, but it did work. Unfortunately, today, you might get arrested for hitting a bully (it actually happened to a friend’s son).

I think we all should gang up on Moe. I don’t like his face either.

Next panel: Ms. Wormwood or the principal comes by and blames Calvin for making a mess in the hallway.

Calvin loves to draw attention to himself but often gets attention that he doesn’t want as in this case.

Poor Calvin. Seems that so many kids have bullies in school. It’s worse now than it was when I was in school.

Something bad should happen to Moe at some point, but I don’t think it does.

It never does, and Moe was the least successful character in the strip. He’s just there to make Calvin look vulnerable.

I guess bullying jokes aren’t that funny these days. Wondering if they ever were.

Yeah, Moe hit him with the Falcon Punch. Although I think most people in middle school who have been bullied want to be ignored.

Sad thing is, that’s probably the most coherent thing Moe has ever said.

Bullies have always been considered the worst part of school and they should be. But if there were no bullies, what would take its place?

During most traumatic, physical altercations, with Hobbes or humans, poor Calvin is knocked out of his little shoes. Makes me laugh every time.
