Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for April 09, 2022

He justifies himself by eating his critics.

Move over, pal…..gimme room.

And this is why Calvin blames Hobbes for…a lot of things.

when in Rome…

For once Calvin answered his own question.

Considering Calvin’s accomplishments, this may be an improvement.

If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em…..

How did I only now notice that Calvin’s shirt is pseudo-tigerstriped?

But at least Hobbes has “character”.

Unlike Dad in that ridiculous biking costume!!

If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em.

Hobbs is teaching Calvin an important survival skill. Rest when you can because there could be something coming.

But is he happy? Sure is…..

This tiger doesn’t even try.

He justifies himself by giving an example to Calvin on the meaning of taking time off to relax!

Unrelated but why wasn’t Calvin put in any special ed classes at his school considering how he behaves?

Yes, they get it. You can be happy that way.

You justify yourself by having the first and/or last letters of each line vertically aligned.

ALL cats have no ambition or drive. They acomplish nothing. They only justify themselves by being cute.

He’s pretending !

I nap, there for I am. Dormio, ergo sum.

I sleep, therefore I am.

There isn’t a tiger in the world that needs to justify itself. After all, who’s going to challenge it?

Tigers (and cats) have better things to do … all … day … long.

Cats do not need to justify themselves, they simply are.

somnum,ergo sum

mission accomplished!

How does Hobbes justify himself taking naps whenever he likes? It’s called being retired! Best job I ever had.

It’s good to learn the important things early, Calvin!

If only life was this simple…

There’s a reason it’s called “the rat race” and not “the cat race”.

sometimes life shows you the best when you are not trying to prove anything

That’s Calvin for you: alternating between ambitious and lazy.

I gave up the idea of self justification before I was Calvin’s age.

Calvin tries napping like Hobbes. (How cute!)

What do YOU accomplish, Calvin?
