Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for November 19, 2014
Transcript:
Calvin: "Wow, mom sure turned into the conniption queen when she found out I hadn't even started my diorama project when it was already due today" Calvin: "So this is one day late! What's the big deal?!" Calvin: "It's not as if LIVES hang in the balance, right? The fate of the universe doesn't depend on turning in a shoe box desert scene on time!" Hobbes: "That's keeping things in perspective" Calvin: "Even if lives DID hang in the balance, it would depend on whose they were"

What’s the matter with you, Calvin? Why can’t you do what most other kids do: wake up early the day it’s due and churn it out in half an hour?

Not quite the same thing as you’re talking about. But sadly there are people who will never be missed.

When are Calvin’s Mom and Dad going to break down and punish him with something other than being sent to his room?

This is the first time I’ve ever seen the word ‘conniption’ in a comic strip. My mother used to call it "a conniption fit’!

Calvin thinks that the Conniption Queen is a royal pain.If he doesn’t get the project done, he’ll also have to deal with the Cantankerous King.

@ A common taterI don’t care about their mother either. Motherhood is no distinction. Half the people in the world can be mothers. Most of them should not be.

Look up “Lawrence Singleton” as just one example. We can all breathe easier with that monster dead.

@Rose Madder: Depends on where you live. Some people say “conniptions;” others say “conniption fits.” Regardless, you know the old expression: “If the conniption fits, wear it.”

If it was the lives of our incompetent government that hung in the balance I would skip the homework.

I know of 2 men, strangled a woman, close friend of mine, threw her body in a septic tank, got life. I wish they were dead. If that makes me a monster, GRRRR!!! so be it. Like it or not, there are people who should not be allowed to live.
rphbeta almost 10 years ago
Yes, there are many who deserve death that get life. Some die who deserve life. Can you give it to them? Don’t be so quick to judge.

The word “conniption” has always made me laugh for some reason. Good one here.
