Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for October 24, 2008

The dino that chased them was a herbivore if I’m not mistaken.

Original run date 11 September 1987

hehe, “Your mom isn’t fazed by much” lol :D

I did not know that the Tyrannosaurus Rex was a herbivore!!!

Interesting

(sometimes thinking too much about the details can get in the way of imagination)

why did calvin put frogs in the toilet!?

It was part of a Wetlands Environmantal Relocation effort conducted jointly with the Army Corps of Engineers that ran into some… uh, well, never mind about that…;

Terry it wasnt a T Rex is was Brontosaurus…and runar is right they are herbivore…

You see, these are the things that added another dimension to my enjoyment of C&H. Why indeed did he put frogs in the toilet?

DougDean, LOL!

runar, coldfusion:

The fact that in Calvin’s world he can be resourceful enough to invent a machine capable of time travel, but ignorant enough to think that all dinosaurs are Calvin-eaters makes it even funnier…

Mom isn’t scared of that ferocious, man-eating tiger, either. She’s a cool customer. Calvin put frogs in the toilet because it was there.

He came home to soon Non Sequitor jsut arived in the Juarasic today… they woulda gotten along great.

I love this comic!

Welcome back home Calvin and Hobbes! I am sure they enjoyed traveling in the fantastic and imaginative time machine.

I thought he put the frogs in the toilet because the blender was broken.

apparently Bill put the face of a T Rex onto the body of a Brontosaur …

look at the teeth…

Although the dinosaur was herbivorous, remember that when they first arrived they were messing with (presumably) HER eggs. Classic wrong place, wrong time; never get between a mother and her cubs…

Why did he put frogs in the toilet? Because it’s one of the only places in the house where you have enough standing water for them to swim in (the bathtup would make mom think of making Calvin take a bath, so it’s not safe)! Weren’t ANY of you normal little boys? Sheesh!

Normal little boys… Now THERE’s an oxymoron!

Nothing showed it trying to eat them, but that would be the “normal” assumption of a little boy faced by a giant dinosaur. Herbovore or not.

A herbivore won’t eat you but can still make you go splat when it stomps on your butt.Adios. Have a nice day!.

I like that Calvin makes mistakes in his imagined adventures.

The animal that kills the most people in Africa is an herbivore. So while, they might not have been in danger of being eaten, they may have been in danger of being killed.

why does it matter what kind of dino it was, all that matters is that it is a good comic and C&h rulles. so that is that.

tabbylynn: You go girl. (I’m assuming you’re a girl by your profile name)

Mom’s aren’t phased
