I recall the time they found those fossilized mosquitoes, and before long they were cloning DNA.Now I’m being chased by some irate velociraptors, well believe me, this has been one lousy dayJurassic Park is frightening in the dark, all the dinosaurs are running wildSomeone shut the fence off in the rainI admit it’s kind of eerie, but this proves my chaos theory, and I don’t think I’ll be coming back again, oh no!
Calvin absolutely WILL amount to an amazing dinosaur paleontologist as an adult – we HOPE! It’s the chowder-headed sheeple he’s currently stuck with that will drag him down for not being “normal”, playing sports, and ignoring his own imagination.
Being “entertaining” isn’t the point of the assignment, though. Calvin was actually supposed to be informing the class about the subject, not indulging in his own private — and somewhat disturbing — fantasies.
“Spare the rod”. Calvin’s parents need lessons in child rearing. Calvin’s rear needs to be warmed up so when he tries to sit down he’ll be reminded of the consideration he should have for others.
Wow, this strip is a tough one for the creationuts. On the other hand, humans and dinosaurs living at the same is at the core of their belief system. On the other hand, they don’t believe in natural selection. So much cognitive dissonance, so few brain cells available for resolving it…
Especially since Velociraptors have longer mouths then Deinonychus.Though I believe it was “Jurassic Park Wikia” it explained why they were called Velociraptors instead of Deinonychus.

Can’t believe this strip is 20 years old. Wow.

Deinonychus look a lot like Velociraptors…and why would Mrs. Wormwood call it tasteless? Not to the ‘saurs she wasn’t.

Obviously, his parents fail to see the need to have him institutionalized.

It seems we may need Dinosaurs, judging by the way our Population is growing.. Anyone saw the movie Idiocracy ?
