Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for August 25, 2013

Yes, the sudden stop at the end is a katastrophe and a shame!

Hobbes is so right!

Amen, Brother Hobbes!

Will Calvin live to reach driving age? The possibility doesn’t bear thinking about

I believe it to be one of the most beautiful Calvin & Hobbes strips. Have a good Sunday everyone.

Pure prose Hobbes.

Philosophical.

Heaven help the world if he ever did reach driving age!

Calvin is so lucky he lives in an area where he has so much open spaces to adventure in.

If you live to reach driving age, you won’t enjoy it, Calvin. It’s best that you make the most out of your younger years, because you can never go back.

There’s a reason it takes so long to grow up – so we don’t have so many Calvins of the world driving.

Ahh…the here and the now……at absolutely any age !Discovering your tiny fingers. Only a bit later, regrets over things not done.

We are Soooo fortunate that there is a end… there would be too many of us hanging around, there is getting to be too many to deal with now…

So true.

Typical Hobbes.

We can’t stop. We can only lookBehind from where we came.And go ’round and ’round and ’roundIn the Circle Game.

—Apologies to Joni Mitchell

Does Hobbes think he has reached the end of life?

calvin, there is a person named haruhi suzumiya. she wanted summer to never end. so, she repeated the same summer for 15000+ times. until, a friend of hers told her to finish summer homework which breaks the loop.

The weeks we had for summer vacation always seemed to fly by… until the last two weeks. By then we were bored.vwdualnomand, What kind of friend was that? With a friend like that, one wouldn’t need enemies!

There’s always an underlying message to these wonderful strips. This one is one of the best. Sudden stop at the end, indeed!

I don’t get how they can have fun riding down a hill in a wagon, and then fly into something. Weird. Also, if Calvin stopped Summer, we’d be in fall, so the days wouldn’t stay the same.

Hobbes the philosopher.

This was a classic strip.

Somehow missed the “Caution” and “Stop” signs along the way

The sudden stop at the end – “Phut!” (Apologies to Victor Borge)

But it is at the Daily Ink web site.

As are a lot of the strips that are not carried here.

Love this one, but don’t wish to grow up too fast, Calvin. It ain’t all it’s cracked up to be.

Hobbes has a point.

Walking to school I would dream of being old enough to drive a car or have a bic,well of course I got old enough to do these things.But now I miss that long walk with the dreams I had ,of the things I would do.

Calvin behind the wheel on the road. I’m glad he does not live near me. Unfortunately we have bad drivers here

funny

Remember “Skippy” by Percy Crosby? He took some really wild rides too.

What meaning would life have if we were on this Earth forever?
