Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for June 22, 2021

Your Mom? Better not let Tipper Gore find out about it!

And buy Playboy for the…..articles.

There goes your allowance, young man, for a month or two.

Of course, Calvin’s a pervert, but at the same time, a misogynist.

LP’s? It didn’t realize Calvin went that far back.

Rolling Stones “Sticky Fingers” album or maybe Loredana Bertè “Streaking”?

Mindless sex seems to be in contradiction to the laws of GRoSS.

I believe it’s called “The Forbidden Fruit Factor”. The more you’re denied something the more you want it.;-D

Scrambled Debutante sounds like a good name for a punk rock/metal band.

With the exception of the depraved glorified violence was instead a protest of the Vietnam war, when I was 10 the first album I bought contained all those qualities. The album was called, The Original Cast Broadway Production of ‘Hair’ (c. 1969).

This is an interesting point in the strip’s run. You can see it changing from a fairly witty gag strip to the philosophical adventures it became known for in later years.

Replaced by the , " WEB ". ?

I’d buy it for the music to play it at the wrong RPM and let the hilarity ensue.

Calvin must get a very generous allowance to be able to afford a new LP.

I like how scandalized Hobbes looks in the third panel.

Are there subliminal messages when you play it backward, Calvin?

Rebel without a clue.

It’s interesting that Calvin had the money to buy an album. To which an obvious response would be, why let internal logic get in the way of the joke?

Calvin: This album promotes a bunch of things that nobody can say on GoComics without getting banned!

Hobbes: 0_o

My father (a tight-assed, tight-lipped prude) had earthquake conniptions when I came home with two Cheech & Chong albums. Goin’ downtown, gonna see my girl…

Triggering Mom is never a good idea.

If your mom likes your music, it is a sure sign to switch genres. :)

how was he able to buy it ?

Is this gangsta rap or something?

Throw in multiple profanities including copious amounts of F words; not to mention the “N” word, and you have a rap group.

When I was 6, I could barely afford a single, much less a whole album…

And just think of all the swearing that’s probably in the lyrics!

My mother loved the song “Beth” by KISS. One day when we were shopping, I asked her, “Do you want to see what the guys who sing ‘Beth’ look like?” She was interested, so I showed her the cover of “Destroyer” (where the song came from). I don’t think she ever listened to the song again.

I’m missing Scrambled Debutante already! :D

The lost art of Album covers; Unless you’re into vinyl.

My kind of music. I’m from the sex drugs, and treason generation.

So you buy it for the pictures?

Yep… shock value is priceless.

Playboy, late 1963. The centerfold one month was Donna Michelle, a student at UCLA as I was then. We had a directory of cards, and someone claimed to have stole Donna’s card: (Donna Michelle? Beat you to it.). Nobody then even considered that Donna Michelle was a made up name to protect her privacy.

I remember back in the 60s and 70s some of the best pin-up art was on album jackets.

My dad told me he got a subscription to Playboy to increase his chances of winning one of their sweepstakes.

I bought a few albums specifically for that reason.
