Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for July 13, 2019

Don’t make a political comment, don’t make a political comment, don’t make a…

No Calvin. You’re about as smart as Billy Madison.

prodigy (the word Calvin was trying to use) -a person, especially a child or young person, having extraordinary talent or ability

progeny (the word Calvin used)-a descendant or offspring, as a child, plant, or animal.

The zipper in the rear makes mooning people easier.

“They’re all above average!”—schoolspeak

Didn’t at one point Calvin manage to put both legs into one trousers leg?

Idiot’s are what makes the world go round for some of us.

Yah now? I always thought Watterson drew Calvin’s head a bit on the large side…now I’m not so sure..

He’s just trying to keep it real

Hobbes, as always is most observant and adept at a good put-down that usually is over Calvin’s head.

Calvin is only smart in his own mind.

An illustration of the Dunning-Kruger effect.

Ok, who just googled Progeny? LOL

Some of the elements are there. He has a way better vocabulary than the average 6 year old and his imagination is incredible. At minimum it’s probably safe to say he’s smarter than average.

I am a super genius, while you could hardly pass the entrance examination into kindergarten.

Sounds like a like of kids these days. They think they know everything but don’t have any common sense.

Sadly, I’m no longer young enough to “know it all”

Seems to me the one thing a real genius never says is, “I’m a genius”.

Perhaps Calvin will start a new fashion trend.

I has a boss whose IQ was well into the stratosphere. He was difficult to work for. He had no patience with us idiots who could not see problems or solve them as fast as he could. He was an intellectual bully who liked to throw his intelligence around.

Unlike a lot of people who think they know it all, he was close to actually knowing it all and that was worse.

My ten year old grandson occasionally wears his t-shirts backwards. Does that count?

Jump!!

Take heart, Calvin. Wile E. Coyote wrestled with these same issues.

A rare malapropism

Back zipper makes for a more efficient poop drop.

How did he zip up if his zipper is in the back? And how did he not figure it out?

surprised everyone got the joke between misuse of progeny and prodigy

I LOL’d!!!

Maybe Calvin read about Comando’s going “Commando” in the Jungles,etc. with the rear of their britches split to allow quick and easy “answering of the Call of Nature” so that they are not caught with their britches down by the Enemy. So Calvin wanted to try it.“Hey Wait,don’t shoot till I get my britches up!” You-all Be Safe And Have A Great Day!

Sorry,that was the best I could do,couldn’t think of anything political.Not into politics anyway.

On behalf of the idiots: thanks, Calvin.

Whomever gave Calvin the idea that he was a genius? Cannot imagine either his parents or his teachers put that idea into his head.

As the saying goes, Calvin, it’s what you learn AFTER you know it all that really counts!

And, can you believe it, that both of his parents are progenitors?

Seen on a tee-shirt; “Those of you who think you know everything annoy the heck out of those of us who do.”

Calvin puts on his pants the same as everybody else: One leg at a time. Don’t try to confuse him with BS about some other technique.

I grew up on Calvin & Hobbes, and I had a vocabulary above my grade level, but I think this one passed me by, lol

Calvin is a genius no doubt. Dressing malfunction is one of the proofs.

Hobbes: “How did you get out here with both legs in the same leg of your pants?”Calvin: “I fell down a lot.”

Is there a non-binary zipper placement?

I read the results of my IQ Test as 181. Then I realized I was reading it upside down.
