Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for May 15, 2022

Does that mean it’s ok if I kiss Calvin’s Mom?

It would be fun to see Calvin’s philosophy evolve when (if) he becomes a teenager.

Will you read the minutes of the last meeting…..

Oh, G.R.O.S.S., the best club in the cosmos.

What if it’s Susie?

Isn’t it though?

And how long is the list of things that Calvin is good for? Shorter than Hobbes, that’s for sure.

From " On Golden Pond " Suck face

All of a sudden, I’m feeling the need to make a newspaper hat.

Man, Calvin really did grow up to become president, didn’t he?

Those rules get you every time.

I am opening a GROSS franchise, anybody wanna join? We do incorporate the “smooch exception”. A “Hugs exception” is under active committee consideration.

Hobbes just said Mom smooched Calvin.

He didn’t say that Calvin LIKED it!!

“Tiger Bulk Rate” was the funniest part.

Calvin is the model for adaptable policies

Such a great psychosis.

“Kiss me where I’ve never been kissed before!” “You mean like Salt Lake City?”

The G.R.O.S.S. club is the best club in the world! It only has Calvin & Hobbs in it!

According to the CDC, you cannot get cooties from girls who are blood relatives. This includes grandmas, moms, sisters, aunts, cousins (to the first degree only) or girls over the age of 16 (at Calvin’s age, they’re sort of like moms anyway).

Fortunately, by the time boys attain puberty, they also acquire an immunity to cooties. Smooching becomes acceptable.

Maybe that’s what’s wrong with Congress. Not enough wrestling.

When I was in first grade I would have gladly joined G.R.O.S.S

Hail Calvin and Hobbes

This is why Calvin and Hobbes may be the greatest strip of all time.

Smooching is a funny word. Almost as funny as booger. Remember the scene with Tim Curry in “Home Alone 2?” "You been smooching everybody! Snuffy! Al! Leo! Little Moe with the gimpy leg!

Hobbes is a figment of Calvin’s imagination, so Hobbes’ words are Calvin’s. Apparently, Calvin is obsessed with “smooching.”

“You’re demoted from First Tiger to Tiger Bulk Rate.” I love this line.

This is sort of how Congress works, or doesn’t work.

I love how Cal’s ht flies off at the mere mention of the word “smooching”. One of the great Sunday strips!

This is perfectly normal behavior for a 6 year old, but it is hilariously similar to the behavior I’ve seen from those incel clubs on social medial these days

Smooching the enemy. Hilarious!

Wait until puberty hits.

Why does this remind me of a presidential administration in the recent past? The guy’s name is right on the tip of my tongue.

That number four is the dealmaker.

Right at th start I knew smooching would come into this! Hobbes is a smoocher.

So funny!!!

Ah, nothing better than a brilliant C&H strip on a Sunday morning.

Classic Calvin and Hobbs. Just wonderful!

What’s this, a compromise?What a ripoff! We paid for blood!

There’s a movie title, Smooching with the Enemy.

This is such a great comic strip!

From first tiger to tiger bulk rate? — LOLOL

The GROSS club is much like life, you get to make up the rules as you go along.

:-\:-P

I want to know what demotion comes after " tiger bulk rate".

Curious to know what will happen to the GROSS club when Calvin reaches teens.

This is one of the best C&H of all time. Every one of the 12 panels is funny. The drawing, the text, everything. Top of his game.

haha, I love the GROSS strips for bringing the notion of “Club Minutes” and meetings to this absurd level. The inevitable fight into the truce is glorious, especially as they do everything by the book.
