I tried this on my parents when this strip originally came out, but they didn’t understand it because they didn’t read Calvin religiously like I did. Now that my kids read my Calvin books, maybe they’ll do this to me. Can’t wait…
Calvin isn’t such a Good Dad himself. Hobbes should have been the first thing he rescued when the house started flooding. And he should be taking care of Hobbes now.
Even though Dad’s polls are trending downward with his constituent, it nothing he can’t reverse with a well-placed “donation” to the ‘CF’ (Calvin Fund).
Seeing how the house looks today, I think Calvin should be awarded… It’s taken Saharan Africa decades to reach that kind of desertification. Surely Calvin’s comic magic is worth a little desertification!

Ask not on whom the poll tells…it tells on thee.

I’d like to point out, Calvin, that your polls aren’t doing any better. Your popularity is down the toiletGood Morning, Marg, Mike & ♠Lonewolf♠!

Dad is going ballistic because it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to realize that Calvin got his just deserts!

Since this is a “comic” Dad is free to squash CALVIN like the creatures of Calvin’s imaginations are ‘Zapped’ daily by Calvin.

That’s all the punishment he got? No dessert?

I think it is time for dad to start a “son” poll and see how Calvin does!

Too bad, Calvin: you got this Dad for life. Or at least 18 years.

I like how Calvin puts so much work into those polls about his Dad. Calvin probably ended up in politics.
