Perfect use of comedic irony here from Watterson- Calvin’s smugness is pitch-perfect, just crossing his arms and raising an inquisitive eyebrow at what is SURELY some outlandish suggestions on Susie’s part.

Suzie doesn’t seem too happy at the prospect either. If that is what keeps a young lady going, either she would learn to raise the bar a little, or settle for whatever dimwitted clod is available. (Not saying which one my wife did.)

@BE THIS GUY… I’d wager the tiger to whom you are referring has higher standards than that…

Calvin obviously hasn’t been to my place of employment and encountered our Dream Team.

I don’t know if she’d be thinking that far ahead either.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I feel Watterson is implying here that girls, even seemingly smart ones like Susie, live for boys’ attention.
