Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for September 23, 2021

More likely, bored from the monotony.

I used to pretend to be Falkor from Never Ending Story while swinging.

You think you’re sick, Calvin? Wait until you’re able to ride the roller coaster. (Unless he somehow managed to do that?)

See if you can go to the school nurse, Calvin, for nausea medication.

Heh heh heh: Just close your eyes, and you won’t see the ground rushing by. That might help. Not.

Imagine that you’re not sick.

Just throw up on the aliens. That should stop them.

Many years ago, I went to see an exhibit of paintings by American artist Winslow Homer.

I swear, I got motion sickness just looking at those seascapes!

Will Spaceman Spiff bur out his transmission before he succumbs to space sickness?

Just think of al the play ground equipment we had, that is considered too dangerous for today’s kids. Swings had a flat board seat, not the bucket or strap of today. Better for jumping from.

It’s time for Spiff to eject. 3..2..1..jump.

Spaceman Spiff has been watching Top Gun.

Try saying “Spiff shifts” ten times real fast ! Good luck !

One of my favourite Spiff strips. I seem to recall imagining this on the swings myself when I was younger.

If Calvin times it right, he can blow his cookies all over Moe. It might not stop the harassment, but maybe he’ll think twice about it.

The human body isn’t really designed for reverse Gs.

Don’t Barf on Hobbes, he hates baths.

Careful Spiff, you’ll wear out your space transmission

Calvin doesn’t realize that space had 3 dimensions, not just 2.

Has anyone here ever felt sick just from a swing?

I was getting sick reading this . . .

Except that Captain Spiff maybe experiencing higher gs.

The sad part is that those aren’t even aliens. It’s the fuel pump. Spiff forgot to take off the hose after he stopped at the gas station.

You need to twist it then get a good boost on the swing to maximize projectiles.

I used to get"sick" on swings ,those spinning things, Car rides on winding roads you know…Why I joined the Navy and rode out out all those typhoons in the South china Seas and ended up on a fleet tug in the ton-kin gulf made no sense….Duty on a fleet tug is a Sailor’s dream though – the Real Navy….urp…

Where’s Hobbes in all this?

Crazy Ivan.
