    I hope Hobbes does not help him and just lie in bed eating tuna sandwiches and reading comics

    Calvin does have a point, though: Dad’s idea of a “vacation” is always those “character-building” camping trips that both Calvin AND Mom loathe.

    For a modern take on the desert, he could have a Tonka Toy truck paving over the sand.

    Knowing what a desert looks like through the Roadrunner cartoons would be (shudder) learning.

    Gotta love Hobbes’ conclusion. He nailed it. And, unfortunately, it has become endemic.

    The Hobbes drawing and voice bubble in the final frame should be made into a wall size poster and sent to 72,858,971 Kool Aid and feces fed mushrooms some of whom post here, As in, “take a hint”. God Bless America and He has.

    This is another comic that shows what Bill was going for with Calvin’s character, he isn’t stupid (after all, he’s only 6) he’s just lazy. Unwilling to put work into anything that doesn’t immediately grasp his interest

    Calvin’s trademark move is spending more time complaining than it would take to actually do the work.

    Despite this strip being quite old…it’s worth pointing out that this is a terrific (one of BW’s MANY) vivid illustrations of the boundless attitude of privilege and entitlement embraced by SO many people…

    When dad brought home our first TV (a 14” B&W) 70+ years ago, my Grade 4 marks dropped from all A+ to Cs and Ds … definitely no connection!

    Today he would just search for “Desert Fun” and we would hope his parents have turned the protective filters on. :(

    Knowing his father’s proclivity for character-building vacations, I am surprised that Calvin’s family hasn’t been on more desert hikes.

    My friend and I “made” a quicksand thing for a science project, 5th or 6th grade. Just put some sand in a container (probably a Tupperware bowl!) and added some water. Can’t remember, but I doubt it got a good grade.
