Sideshow Scarlet sure called it on the 14th “Calvin just needs a pair of sunglasses for his “cool” image to be complete. That and a pair of Mickey Mouse pants”
It’s one thing that has always escaped my logical mind: who decides that something is fashionable? How many people (or tigers) have to start wearing Mickey Mouse pants before they are “in.”
I’ve been wondering the same thing, Susan, about Hobbes the poster..I also haven’t seen Marg in the Comments sections for a few days, and she’s almost always the first poster. Any word on her, folks?
This is how I felt when all the atrocious ‘80s clothes started making a comeback… I was like, you don’t look hip, you look FREAKING STUPID! But here everyone’s wearing it regardless…

I have to agree with Calvin here. It all sounds so Mickey Mouse to me.

Calvin it’s rude to call anyone stupid! Especially Hobbes!

It’s obvious you’ve never been to Bavaria. True Leader Hosen as a flap in the front and suspenders.

If Hobbes really wanted to look cool, he would have added a Mickey Mouse hat.

Tweaking the noses of Disney’s lawyers?

Hobbes doesn’t follow fashion trends, he creates them.

Yeaaaah… in this case I have to agree with Calvin. Now a Charlie Brown shirt might work!

Calvin, want to get a lot of attention and get noticed? Go with the birthday suit to be really cool!
Thunderdog2 almost 13 years ago
Hmmm… Hobbes, the Tiger striped mouse. I think Calvin is right this time.

Ah yes, the height of fashion.
Shoulder pads, leg warmers and miniskirts.
Parachute pants.
Stirrup pants.
Oversize sweat tops—often with ripped-off neck hems.
Disco outfits.
Platform Shoes and hot pants.
Neon colors.
And other stuff, too numerous to mention.
Micky mouse pants might be cool some day.

Oh Calvin, Get over it! Both you AND Hobbes are cool.
Enough said.

A Disney reference? This is step one of five, that leads to Hobbes admitting that he’s actually been Tigger all along.

If I saw a tiger wearing Mickey Mouse shorts, I’d crack up :P

Something that’s come back from the ’80s in fashion-jeans in neon colors like hot pink and bright yellow.

Au contraire, I can’t think that fast at that hour of the morning. Your puns are tops!

I love Hobbes’ face in the last panel. It says volumes with out uttering a word: “Nyah, so there, Calvin.”
Snoopy_Fan almost 13 years ago
At least Hobbes isn’t naked like he is every other day! :-)

Only insane people call tigers stupid, even if they’re wearing Mickey Mouse pants. (They’d have to be wearing a straitjacket.)
Shikamoo Premium Member almost 13 years ago
I think they look pretty cool on Hobbes.
I’m certainly not going to say otherwise to a tiger.
