It makes me laugh when I watch one of those disaster shows on History or Science channel about the end of our world, when the sun dies out.
All the scary music, as if it were going to end pretty soon. It does make you feel as if it was going to happen any day now, so be prepared. Stock up on extra batteries, and candles, and bottled water.

“Anyone informed that the universe is expanding and contracting in pulsations of eighty billion years has a right to ask, ’What’s in it for me?’ "- Peter De Vries, U.S. author
If we make the planet unlivable for us, the planet will support the evolving survivors. We have to do something to kill a few million years time until it happens.
You’re worried about stuff that isn’t likely to happen to you in particular for another eighty years or so, Calvin? Why can’t you make the most of now?
And the universe is not going to collapse, as was believed at the time this was drawn. It will expand faster and faster until all the atoms in the universe are ripped apart. So cheer up.

The way Calvin sees it, we are all in for billions of years of pointlessness.

if that is true calvin, why do people have retirement accounts?

Calvin a philosopher? A bit nihilistic but at least he’s thinking, which is more than most people achieve.

In view of this,I doubt that 80 million years from now, one’s bad toothache will be of importance.

Hobbes – again great relevant comics. I leave the big picture thinking to the Calvin’s of the world. One day at a time is all I can handle.

Calvin has been the ‘man of the hour’ for ages now with his long speeches.
Let Hobbes be in the centre of the limelight for a change.
LOL xxx

The next thought that follows is: Party today for tomorrow you die. Calvin does not know about the joy of having grandchildren.

Compared to what’s happening in DC….this could be a good thing. Calvin is always thinking ahead.

Calvin as an existentialist? Kierkegaard would be proud!

Problem is so many people confuse the TV as the Big Picture. But “God” bless you Calvin lol

Bummer. But if you’re an atheist, then to be consistent, that’s what you’ve got. Life is meaningless.

The pessimist looks at life and sees inevitable death. The optimist looks at life, and sees a priceless gift each moment in which to act.
