Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for December 06, 2015
Transcript:
Calvin: "See any weirdness yet?" Hobbes: "How about this rock? It has a purple stripe" Calvin: "Hmm...I guess that's a LITTLE weird" Hobbes: "We'll look for something weirder" Calvin: "What do you think of this stick?" Hobbes: "It's a strange stick, but it's not a weird stick" Calvin: "It's too bad there aren't any good bugs out now" Hobbes: "Yes. Bugs are usually weird" Calvin: "Hey, here's a bird feather" Hobbes: "It's pretty but it's not WEIRD" Calvin: "A bald bird would be weird" Hobbes: "I don't see one" Calvin: "Look! A ripped-up old kit! Some kid must have lost this last summer" Calvin: "Phooey. The string broke here. I was hoping we'd find the kids skeleton up a tree at the other end" Hobbes: "THAT would be weird" Calvin: "Well, let's go in. I'm cold" Hobbes: "Me too. I guess some days weirdness is hard to find" Dad: "My glasses are fogged and I can't blow my nose, but my heart rate is the envy of men half my age!" Calvin: "Weirdness always starts at home" Hobbes: "Even when you look for it, you're never prepared for it"

I had a weird event this morning. While training my organ pieces a spider let herself down from ceiling and sat down on the keys. It was an enormous spider and I was startled very much!!

Charlie Brown must have gotten lost and wound up in the wrong comic strip hence panel seven.

Calvin, as lovable as he is, is often the prime example of weirdness.

Weirdness, like charity, begins at home.

As I always say “Everybody is weird in their own way” It doesn’t matter who we are or where we come from.

So, nobody thinks a six year old talking to his stuffed tiger and getting a response from said tiger is weird?
Well, that’s weird…

I had to go back and reread the comic because I had zero idea how we got on the subject of heartbeats per minute.
More weirdness…

All numbers are interesting—maybe even weird. There is a proof.

What a beautiful set-up for stating one of Aristotle’s main tenets: Weirdness always starts at home.
