Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for March 27, 2015
Transcript:
Mom: "Would you care for a snack, Susie?" Susie: "Um, ok. Thank you" Calvin: "Well? What have you got to say for yourself?" Hobbes: "When one entertains female friends, one should try not to look quite as seedy as certain unnamed parties habitually do" Calvin: "Who's entertaining?! Who's a female friend? Who looks seedy?!" Hobbes: "A spotted tie is just the thing when you're wearing stripes! Tigers have a natural flair for casual chic!" Calvin: "I can't believe this! Why didn't you kill her when she came in the door?!" Hobbes: "By the way, if you had made proper introductions, we might have smooched her hand" Calvin: "Here, let me adjust the narrow end of your tie about eight inches"

These strips are the rare ones when you see what’s going inside Calvin’s mind.

Hobbes, ever the cultured tiger. Especially when it comes to cute little girls named Suzie.

Being a stuffed toy, Calvin will not be able to choke Hobbes to death.

Well gosh golly, why doesn’t Hobbs just try to leave Calvin and move in with Susie? Now that would REALLY be fun!

Polka dots with stripes?!?! Must be Tiger chic. As interpreted by Calvin. And Hobbes is clearly angling for smooches.

Sometimes I wonder whether Calvin seriously wants Susie dead. He tried to buy deadly weaponry to use against her once.
Pthhht! over 9 years ago
I just have to wonder if Suzie is listening to Calvin talking to Hobbs. Can she also hear Hobbs’ response? I also thing I know Calvin’s last name — Bates. At one point I believe his mother buys a motel.
