Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for July 21, 2018

For Dad, one solution to negligent parenting is no parenting at all.

Write their names on their legs so we could tell who they are? Of course, this was before that whole pantsuit thing…

Why? Because he’s six.

Well now we know where who is.

Mom and Dad should know by now they need to keep Calvin right there with them whenever they go anywhere!

And Dad says, “Come on, we can make a clean get away.”

Calvin was the “question” (answer) to a Jeopardy question last night.

just listen for the screams or the zoo employee on the walkie talkie squak about some fool kid talking to tigers.

Good idea dad. You’re no fun anyway

Calvin’s day wouldn’t be complete without a little misadventure.

my mom kept me on a harness wheni was little!! people thought she wasmean!!!

In real life, I’m sure that lady would’ve taken Calvin to the zoo office and have them page Calvin’s mom and dad. But, since this ISN’T real life, this is MUCH funnier.

Wait. The lady just left him and didn’t notify the zoo staff about a lost little boy?

I don’t remember that Calvin’s dad was so depreciating RE Calvin. The last 2 or 3 months have had a lot of negative comments from the dad RE his son. I confess that makes me uncomfortable.

Anyone who kidnapped the kid would return him after 5 minutes.

This was before Home Alone was a thing. Well, Home Alone 2.

I wonder if Calvin even knows his mom’s name. Just putting “Mom” on every Mom’s calves would be next to useless i guess :)
