Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for June 26, 2016

Dad has had years of practice.

Yep, dad definitely won. He even changed colors.

Strangely enough, I was just thinking about this very strip earlier and was wondering when it would appear in the rotation!

Dad doesn’t look too thrilled with his victory in that last panel, though.

So we’re not there yet.

Dad’s face in panel 9 brings back memories of childhood car trips. LOL

doesn’t happen anymore…kids have to be in car seats until they’re twenty five years old.

This was always one of my favorites. I can relate so much.

When Bill Watterson draws cars, it looks like they’re jumping off the road. They’re one step away from an accident…

C & H acting up like that reminds me of Harvey Korman and Tim Conway on the old Carol Burnett show. Classic stuff…….. ;-)

So, as PEAM said: We’re STILL not there yet? I have to pee.

Would it be better or worse (for Mom and Dad) if Calvin had an actual brother or sister?

I recall a Garfield strip where he and Odie were also having a weird face contest, Jon notices, calls the “funny farm” and asks them if they take pets…

Flying cars existed long before “The Jetsons”!

I just wonder if Calvin was ever able to live long enough to grow up. LOL

Crap! I gotta change shirts! I spilled my coffee all over the one I’m wearing…

Now is probably not a good time for Calvin to ask Dad, “Are we there yet?”

He certainly did!

Mom says to stop being silly; here what that means to Calvin:“OOGAH, OOGAH, NA-DA-WAH!OOGAH, OOGAH, NA-DA-WAH!HOPPA, HOPPA, HOPPA, HOPPA,HOPPA, HOPPA, HOPPA, HOPPA,OOGAH, OOGAH, NA-DA-WAH!!”Mom: “CALVIN, WHAT ON EARTH ARE YOU DOING?!!”“Opposites, Mom! Today is National Opposite Day! And so I’m doing the exact opposite of what people tell me! You oughta try it sometime, it’s so liberating — Uh-oh!”Hobbes (to Calvin in his room, arms folded, tongue sticking out): “I just suggested that you might give it a try! I didn’t say it would work!”Calvin: “Oh, shut up!”

That’s for sure.

Poor Dad, the unwilling contestant of the Weird Face Competition. Some of us don’t have to move a muscle 7 qualify

You’d think you’d be free of that stuff with only one kid. But Calvin isn’t just any kid.
