Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for November 16, 1993
Transcript:
Calvin: Help me think of an issue to debate for this dumb paper. Hobbes: Well, what issues do you care about? Calvin: I don't care about issues! I've got better things to do than argue with every wrong-headed crackpot with an ignorant opinion! I'm a busy man! I say, either agree with me or take a hike! I'm right, period! End of discussion! Hobbes: Um...right. Calvin: There, see? Everybody's happy.
