Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for February 13, 2020

I hope show and tell doesn’t involve touching.

Hopefully Miss Wormwood’s lesson today is about common colds and sneezing.

Say “no”, Mom.

classic Calvin. one of my favorites.

It’s corona virus!

it’s “snot” Calvin’s Mom’s problem

’s’not going to work Calvin.

Gross, I’ll bet he presents it as alien slime or some such

Nor will his class mates or Miss Wormwood.

Most of the boys in the class will be intrigued…

Well, if you know it is going to be an off the cuff presentation and the expectations are low, go ahead and have some fun. I can possibly be the best, or at least most memorable, presentation you ever gave.

It snot funny.

Cool! Ectoplasm for “show and tell”…

His problem is not to be sneezed at . oh, wait…

Better yet, Calvin, zip-lock!

One of Calvin’s less disgusting demonstrations.

I never had to do Show and Tell, but I don’t understand the point of it.

neither do his classmates

btw… when was “Show and Tell” a thing? I never did it in school, nor do I remember my son doing it. ??

BRAIN BLEACH!!! STAT!!!

Good call, mom. Good call.

YUM YUM!

hopefully he doesn’t have the coronavirus!

“This morning, I learned that not all body fluids are equally viscous. Check THIS out!”

Would he have been branded “The kid that didn’t have anything for show and tell” if he didn’t or something?

Mucous gets a bad wrap – with the green blob character on TV commercials and recurring comic displays like this. Without it, much of life on this planet would have never made it this far! Let’s hear it for mucous!!

I took my cat to 3rd grade.

He should bring in the box of chocolate frosted sugar bombs.

Oh Great ! Now I’ll have the Image of Calvin opening that sandwich bag in front of the Class and Showing It’s contents, probably with a “Much Too Detailed” description of the contents. :-{ I’m with you,Mom. :-}

I see a visit to the principal’s office in Calvin’s near future.

Snot funny!

Sugar Bombs… that explains a lot.

Take some of that cereal and explain how it gives him incredible energy to get ready for school because of the sugar.

Lady, you know enough already.

This strip is “snot” funny…..

The five worms/duplicates of few days ago could be a good issue .

Sneezing doesn’t mean much.

The Sugar Bombs did it.

Take Hobbes.

I can almost see Calvin at show and tell… “I sneezed so hard my brains came out my nose”.
