Origin of the immortal line “the score is oogy to boogy.” Of course anything containing the word “oogy” is funny; more so if the other word rhymes with it.
I think Calvin vs Caulfield (from the Frazz comic strip) in a game of Calvinball would be epic! I think Calvin would win because he is not as bridled down with education as Caulfield is.
It seems to me that a game of Calvinball could consist of Calvin and Hobbes standing together, making up rules and then countering them with something else, all afternoon.

I know he invented Calvinball specifically because he hated organized sports, but is it really any better?

You see, Mom and Dad? Your only child is hopelessly off-balance because he has no HUMAN playmates to interact with!

Pretty tough to get out of the boomerang zone. If you try to leave, you’ll just return.

A bit like when my little brother and I played Monopoly. I used to rob the bank, and break out of jail afterwards. :D

I think men should create new team sports that lead to less hooliganism.

The only permanent rule in Calvinball is that there are no rules.

I think the only “rule” of Calvinball is: “The quickest to make up the rules wins!”
