“This rug must need a thicker pad.”Calvin and Hobbes can use that statement to plead eggstenuating circumstances, and Hobbes will stick with Calvin through thick and thin.
Would a thicker pad keep the eggs off the floor?Mom will be floored …florid with rage, even!Calvin will be shellacked when Mom sees the whites of his eyes.
Mom must either not be at home or taking a nap. I could see Dad telling Calvin that juggling works better with two dozen eggs (the more eggs you have, the better chances of catching them)

I actually know people like C & H in this strip: They’re real ‘head-shakers’ with some of the stuff they come up with.

There’s so much to eggstrapolate here, but I over eggstended it already, as Woodeye limits me to only four comments. :o)

Two of my comments were complimentary to other commenters, though, so I should be eggsonerated!
