Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for June 08, 2011

OH Brother!

More Heinis??

Some girls have two or three heinies, don’t they?

Good Morning, Marg, Mike & ♠Lonewolf♠

an early leader for “pun of the day”

Boys have their Heinissis!! Never will be peace!

Girls are always looking for excuses to skip being punished! :D :P

As Calvin spent most his time at the principal, he should enjoy the fact that now Susie is also sent to it instead of being angry ;)

Girls have more DELICATE Heinies?!? How does Susie know this for a fact?

heeeheeeheee nice one @pouncingtiger!

In 68 I recall the Vice Principal saying, “I’m a deacon in your church, our families go on picnics, and I drink bourbon with your Dad. Now drop your pants and bend over or I’ll call your Dad.”

Suzie in trouble? This is a first

When I was in 3rd or 4th grade the word was that the principal had a paddle MACHINE with NAILS in the paddle! Sworn to be true by those IN THE KNOW. Of course I never saw it but it sure put the fear of that long walk into all of us.

and upon learning of this, Calvin felt a strange stirring, for the first time in his young life!

I guess she’s not a feminist. Otherwise, she’d demand equal treatment.

@Thirdguy,And let it be, when you hear the sound of a going in the tops of the mulberry trees, that then you shall bestir yourself: for then shall the Lord go out before you, to smite the host of the Philistines. 2 Samuel 5:24Is the foregoing verse what you had in mind? Susie, Miss Wormwood, and the principal are among the host of the Philistines, figuratively speaking. :o)Of course, Calvin is much too young for ‘a strange stirring’, but your clever thought is allowed to take liberties (poetic license) to make the humorous point.

As long as Susie walks in front of Calvin, he can’t knock her teeth out. (See last panel from yesterday!)

Susie: “Canoe paddle me, Mr. Principal?”Principal: “No, but I can ship you out (suspend boat (both) of you) for a few days. You’ll be up the creek without a paddle.”

“Girls have more delicate heinies.”…giving honor unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel…I Peter 3:7b

The 80’s were still strict, but not as strict as, say, the 60’s.

Is she the butt of the joke?I got smacked on the hand for taking a dead mouse away for a little girl which made her cry as she wanted the mouse…a dead mouse on the playground was neat….

Not sure if I should say this, but I did find that some girls rather liked a little tooshie smacking as we got older.

Who sez?

Times have changed. When I was in the 6th grade there was a teacher who had been a Golden Gloves boxer. When he punished a student you could hear them crashing against the walls.

In high school, the vice principal was a disciplinarian who would occasionally throw trouble-makers into the lockers hard enough to make a good BANG! It probably didn’t really hurt, but it sounded impressive!!

Far as I knew KS schools when I was a kid did not use paddles. Just started cross busing, we went to OK schools back late 60’s they did use paddles in school. When a kids was going to get a swatt you could hear in classroom when this occured staff and students stayed in classroom, the teacher did the dead.

Our shop teacher did the paddling. Word had it the holes drilled into the wood made it hurt more. We could hear the sound of the swat all the way down the row of class rooms. That was a good enough determent for me!

paddling? that would invite a lawsuit against the teacher, the principal, the school and the school district.that’s just the way it is these days no matter what was done in the olden days of yore

Please Cal this case not heieis Susie must to Clear Soon Soon ….lOlll _.. We’re friends ..

@Dogsniff groan . . . good one!

Thanks to Burger King, McDonald’s and XBox, it seems that the girls just have more heinie… Well, that and a lack of exertion.

“skulker, sounds like a weapon of a$$ destruction. . . .”In our school, they were no longer using paddles. They had worse tools: Compasses and protractors, and other weapons of Math instruction.

Forgot what i did, but the Principal marched me down to the boiler room to give me 3 swats with one of those rectangular paddles with round holes that sucks your meat up into it to amp the sting..

@James: “Feminism” takes different shapes.I never quite understood why Calvin was getting sent as well. What rule did he break this time?

Can you say heinie in the newspaper?

Can never get enough of Calvin and Hobbes.. Really miss reading new content.

Susie is right.The principle can not paddle a girl,because their heinies are so soft and fuzzy and cuddly , and

She’s got awfully big feet for a girl…

Susie has never been to the Principal’s office, so she is ony going by what her father told her happened to him. And then improvising an out.

Cat o’ Nine Tails!

Poor Calvin. Still blaming Susie for his own behavior. At least the teacher wasn’t fooled by him.

Thank God for girls and their cute delicate heinies!Ah, I remember that I always got two paddlings, one at school and one when I got home!

I agree, spank the boys!!

Heinies – that’s the ketchup, right?

Corporal punishment in school pretty much went out with The Bangles in most places I’ve lived.

Once had a teacher who taught electronics in high school. He physically threw one student out of the class. And then opened the metal door.

Nowadays, we would recognize that he had anger management issues. (And likely would have been suspended at a minimum.)

In my experience, girls were usually too “proper” to get in much trouble. Boys were more exhuberant. :D

how is contiguous..?
