Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for September 06, 2014
Transcript:
Calvin: "Well, Hobbes, we might as well give up. I can't figure out how to make a robot. This one doesn't do anything" Mom: "It's past your bedtime, Calvin. You'll have to leave your toys for tomorrow" Calvin: "Ok, mom. Our robot wasn't working out anyway" Calvin: "Gosh, and we spent all day on it, too. I thought for sure our robot would save us from making the bed" Hobbes: "And in a way, he DID!" Calvin: Hey, yeah! We're geniuses!"

I like the way that Hobbes has opened the bedroom door for Calvin in the last panel; also, the way that both Hobbes and Calvin are holding the handrail as they walk up the stairs.
Apparently, it’s not unusual to discover that a robot is incapable of doing what it was intended to do:Click here: Dilbert (April 9, 2008)Click here: Thatababy (February 17, 2011)rshive over 10 years ago
The bed will still be there tomorrow, Calvin. And you’ll still have to make it.
