Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for September 25, 2024

Way to promote diabetes, Calvin!

Well, Calvin’s ad IS truthful—unlike real TV commercials!

Sorry, but my days eating sugary cereals are long over. My A1C levels are not good.

Those threats Calvin makes remind too much of election ads!

Pee Wee’s play house ha,ha,ha,ha,ha.

“Remember! It’s the cereal I get paid to promote because I’m famous!” That’s a wonderful comment on the society that we live in.

It’s also a good contrast to a strip where Calvin said he wanted a T-shirt because a T-shirt “shows you love a product so much that you’ll pay to advertise it.” Hobbes replied, “You’d admit to that!?”

He’d make a perfect influencer for Chinese sweat shops.

“They’re GREAT!” (oops, wrong kitty)

Only every 20 minutes? Ok, they didn’t know the Internet then.

somehow this puts me in mind of Max Headroom

They now repeat the same commercial several times within one break. I’m sure research is behind that.

Remember back when they only repeated them every 20 minutes?

The problem with advertising is that it works.

You can never have enough sugar..Its a natural resource like marijuana.

Seems Bill Watterson invented YOU-TUBE influencers 20 years ago.

This is far too much like real life, so I’m with you, Hobbes!

Sugar day in comics, Dennis the menace today on CK and Arcamax, Dennis and Joey sitting at the Wilson’s table eating cookies and Mrs. Wilson standing behind them with a slice of double layer chocolate cake for each. They do each have a glass of milk to drink with them.

At least he’s using his imagination and not playing a video game.

“Crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside.” Actually, that does sound kind of good.

Every 20 minutes? Why wait such a long, long time?

OMGosh!! Calvin read The Count’s comment from yesterday!! No, The Count has not seen this arc before. Dilly! Dilly! Count

Just like TV ads……hear until you are sick of them……no….wait a minute….that’s political ads!!!!!!

LOL… Hobbes is so funny.

How one starts is how one finishes.

Children are brought up on sugary foods by parents who were brought up on sugary foods by grandparents who . . . . – - You got it.

For me not certain win started, just noticed age 40, I cannot even have the smell of what Calvin talked on, allergic have a reaction.

One sort of wonders why Mom buys them.

Thank you, God, for the free add Netflix.

I really am not a fan of the lack of privacy that occurs with social media these days, but somehow I wouldn’t mind if the advertisers were aware of how many times I mute out and turn my back on the TV as their advertisements were airing.

Today? Every five minutes for five minutes…
