Which subject would Calvin be even remotely likely to get an“A” in? Daydreaming and Recess aren’t graded — at leastthey weren’t when I was in school in the last millenium….
Poor Calvin. First Miss Wormwood compliments him, and then she rains on his parade.Miss Wormwood’s alternate way of thinking keeps intruding on Calvin’s reality.

But, previously, Hobbes did all the work:Click here: Calvin and Hobbes (June 6, 1992)Click here: Calvin and Hobbes (March 19, 1992)
When an “A” student makes an “A”, it’s no big deal. When a “D minus” student makes an “A”, there darn well SHOULD be a parade. Way to go, Calvin! They should name that street after you!
@Hobbes, I don’t know if anyone’s said it for a while, but I just love your bonus “variations on a theme” comics that you post in here daily. How do you keep finding them all?
I’ve been searching for a visual for those REALLY annoying grandstanders in football who are paid gigantic salaries and still prance like pathetic kindergarteners when they do their job right. Now I’ve got it. Thank you, Calvin.
Come now – if Calvin was on Ritalin, he wouldn’t be half as much fun, would he? Besides, to hear some people tell it, he hallucinates enough already with Hobbs.

It’s a short lived reward.

An A is a reward in itself

Calvin wanted the accolades of an Easter bonnet with all the frills upon it.

I’m a little surprised that Calvin even cares. Must’ve been the extra helping of pink slime.

I think Calvin’s watched too many reruns of “Ferris Buehler’s Day Off!”

Reminds me of “A Christmas Story” when Ralphie dreams of getting accolades for his essay on what he wants for Christmas. Then he gets a C+. C+??

There was one comic where he said he didn’t want an A because he wants to set people’s expectations low.
