Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for May 04, 2010

What can I say….?

Say “Good morning.”

Calvin, you need to rethink your second conclusion as well.

I’m sick of everyone telling me what to do all time!

Being a kid can really be a drag sometimes!

Grumpy! Isn’t he.

he won’t say so after coming back from school.. morning hours are the most grumpy..

Turned that one around in a hurry, didn’t he. LOL

GM, Marg.

Calvin, if everyone was dead, who would you drive crazy?

there are days like that

As he said so tellingly in another bad mood, “People are scum.”

Wow, what a classic ENFP over-reaction to being told what to do.

I’m glad I’m a grown-up and can have coffee in the morning. Everything looks better after caffeine! Good morning and good night all!

I feel that way right now!

Even if every one is dead… calvin can imagine the world and enjoy it :-)

Good morning Marg! Good morning Fran and Shepmixmutt! Does the Shepmutt have a name?

Poor Calvin, he’s waiting for a nus he doesn’t want to get on, and that’s because the beanie doesn’t make him fly.

poor calvin….

Panel 5 Calvin pulls out his Tranmolifier (sp) and says “And I’m just the guy to make that happen.”

Wasn’t everybody being dead a Twilight Zone episode?

Love the grumpy face!

Poor guy Calvin! he doesn’t know it will be same for rest of his life. SCHOOL, WORK and so on

This was my father’s favorite. He worked a very high stress job just south of Wall Street and definitely had days like this

yesterday in Boston with NO COFFEE was like that.

I feel ya thepeoplemushroom!

Good Morning Mike Firesmith.

Kizzy is the lady with the killer smile. Her birth date is Jan 1995 and we still have conversations about who is in charge.

Let’s think this through, Calvin. Who will tuck you in at night and give you the hug that makes everything alright? Meanwhile you have all day for ‘saurus type adventures.

Calvin has a really bad case of egocentrism this morning – but what else is new?

The kid is a candidate for pre-pundit school. He just has to decide which side to hate.

grumpy, grumpy, grumpy…

Harrrrruuuummmpppphhhh!

Gotta love this one!

Now, O LORD, take away my life, for it is better for me to die than to live. But the LORD replied, “Have you any right to be angry?” Jonah 4:3-4

that was so meeaan!!

I think I had that kid on my bus this morning!!

Let’s see. What effect would caffeine have on Calvin? Hmm.

Calvin, I share your pain. I feel the same while driving to work.

Calvin..You have discovered the real life, the rest of your life will be of this way

Perhaps Calvin would rather be inside a whale or a great fish. Would Calvin change his mind if all the people (everyone else) repented?

Calvin is just disappointed that his beanie didn’t measure up to what he was hoping for to fly around.

Dino me I can’t handle caffeen it would win and I would loose by staying up most of the night not sleeping. Had that problem last night and no caffeen a song from tv got in my mind and I could not shut it off wound up getting up at 11:30pm and read till almost 1am and then it still took time to sleep.

He needs to go a couple of rounds with a tiger….

Dino I did have another reason so I don’t repeat my post check BT.

i never liked getting up so early

i always wished mornings started later

like maybe closer to noon

Perfect.

Atta boy Calvin!

Understand completely just how he feels. Sigh!

Calvin you act like a bad kid this morning.

Sorry , Johanan, but ENFP’s aren’t the only ones who over-react to being told what to do.

Uh Oh!! Is Calvin going to bolt again – I hope so. Don’t let them tell you what to do Calvin – go for it!!!!!

This is some six year old. Working through some of life’s heaviest most existential questions while waiting for a bus. “of the study of many books is a weariness of the flesh”….

My son was like that at 6.

One day after school he said to me:

“What I can’t figure out is why God made people anyway.”

I sometimes feel like that at the bus stop.

“My childhood was a period of waiting for the moment when I could send everyone and everything connected with it to hell”

— Igor Stravinsky

Ah teenage angst, brought on eight years too early…

And pamlicorat, Yes. Or at least, there was an episode where everybody died, and one bookworm remained. All the time in the world to read! Then, in Twilight Zone fashion, he broke his glasses.

pamlicorat said: Wasn’t everybody being dead a Twilight Zone episode?

That’s exactly was I was thinking!

It was a 1959 T.Z. episode titled “Time Enough At Last” starring Burgess Meredith. He’s a bookish bank teller with really thick “coke-bottle” glasses that loves to read but between his wife, boss, and customers, can’t seem to find the time (or a quiet place) to do it. On his lunch hour one day, he sneaks into the bank’s vault to do some reading. A nuclear bomb goes off and kills everyone except him. He rejoices in the fact that without anyone to bother him, he now has all the time in the world to read anything and everything he wants from the town’s library. He stacks the books into towers and as he reaches for a particular book to read, his glasses slip off his face and get smashed. The episode ends with him crying and saying over and over again, “It’s not fair … it’s not fair.”

Man! I’d say Calvin is SOOOO negative…you could stick him in a dark room and he’d develop! lol

We love you too Calvin…………

Panel 5: where did everyone go?
