Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for January 15, 2020

When dictatorship goes wrong…

“Vote? That’s not how the other Creator does it.”

welcome to the Democratic Republic of Duplicaty

Why can you get covered in computer programing in disappear

Shudder. Seven Calvins.

reminds me of a flintstones episodeI saw where this ufo came down and made Fredinto 10 freds!!!

Calvin, it’s a Coup d’état, run for your life.

Calvin vs. Calvins. Who will win?!

“You’re an original baby, like we’ve never seen before. You’re so original, baby—turn around and you’re lookin’ at a hundred more.” (Sheryl Crow)

Electoral college or some other voting system?

Wait a minute guys, all you need now it to get Hobbes and Susie and you’ll have a baseball team!

Too bizarre. And not very funny.

If Calvin’s mom finds out, she’ll head for Mongolia!

Reminds me of a Flintstones’ episode. Yabba. Dabba. Doo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqFM9carOgo

Yep. They are definitely your duplicates, Calvin! They act just like you!

From the opening titles of “The Prisoner”:

“Who are you?”

“The new Number Two.”

“Who is Number One?”

“You are Number Six.”

“I am not a number. I am a free man.”

We need Gene Wilder to really do this right. (Or totally wrong. One way or the other!)

When do Thing One and Thing Two come out?

The trouble with tribbles.

Mayhem in 3…2…1…

Aaawww, I think his mom will be ok with it. One? Half a dozen? They’re all just as adorable as the original.

One sort of wonders what happens if one of the duplicates decides that he’s the real Calvin.

So which one gets to keep Hobbes?

Reminds me of trying to herd cats.

Sounds like English is not your forte.

If they are perfect copies, wouldn’t each on think he’s the original Calvin?

It was unanimous, they all voted “me”.

I remember when this happened at our house.

I’m sure I speak for all of us when I say, “Ah, Karma, Calvin, Karma. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!”

Imagine the mayhem at bath time.

The Demoncratic process.

I like it! Calvin being bossed around – by other Calvins! Let’s stick Mom and Dad in the machine too and see if they can be replicated too. Oh – and don’t forget the baby sitter – need about 10 of her!

How messed up must Calvin be that he sees a half dozen clones in his room? He really needs to be sent to a psychiatrist before he hurts himself or others.

Bloody democracy rearing its ugly head.

To paraphrase Jean-Paul Sartre – “Hell is other Calvins”.

The title changes tomorrow" “Calvin, Calvin, Calvin, Calvin, Calvin, Calvin, Calvin and Hobbes.”

The characters in Primer had the same problem … more or less.

Think of all the weird snowmen they could make…

Calvin, meet Calvin.
