Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for August 05, 2015

Calvin’s goal is to keep his parents’ heart rate up.

I remember this one, it’s so funny.

Who mows the lawn while a sprinkler is going?

are we really commenting on a comic strip?!

Check out the comments on ‘Stone Soup’ comic strip. Talk about people that need to get a life.Gheez, now I’m commenting!Oh no!

Friendships have developed, and cats have been adopted out by commenting on comic strips!

It’s not fun if one does to get a benefit.

Surprised dad did not say need soap to clean with water. That would make Calvin more sad and ruin fun the time.

@isser saffir: You asked whether we are really commenting on a comic strip. Not sure what you were expecting when you walked in here. Maybe try the “Commenting On People Who Comment On Comic Strips” department. It’s one door to the left.

Calvin’s comment is all wet, which is not unusual.

Well, dad could tell you to keep your heart rate up by helping him mow the lawn or weed the garden. Enjoy it while you can, Calvin.

At the very least he’s not staring blankly at an electronic device. Ahh, the olden days…

Dads are good for hangouts.

Calvin knows fun is fun—any and all side effects (good health) are purely gift. But making them the point saps the fun.

I don’t like exercise much. The only exercise I do is walking.You would never see me down at the Gym.xxx

Calvin is spot on. And he never even MET my dad, who could find the dark cloud to any silver lining.

I like the Smurf look of Calvin!

I like it, how Watterson is able to express all looks and feelings in his drawing!!
