Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for May 07, 2023

Calvin is just helping Hobbes keep his skills sharp.

Because Calvin is NOT a civilized human being.

Throwing a piece of toast is just like throwing a frisbee…..

I really want to see the next panel, a tiger after eating peanut butter.

He’s right. Tigers in the wild regularly chase and catch toast and jam that runs around in the jungle.

Kids are feral.

The answer’s in your question, Mom.

o m g in all the years i lived with cats that never occurred to me to do with them… arrrghh …well, anyway, i can do it next time i have the opportunity lol

A toast to Hobbes skills……

As an answer to his mom: not in today’s hectic society. Everyone’s too busy having a screen stuck in their face… the author of this post, sadly, included.

I think Hobbes would have liked it better if there was tuna fish on that toast instead of jelly.

At least Mom is making Calvin clean up the mess instead of doing it for him.

The cat is ok, it’s the kid that needs to be house trained!

Friends do thing for friends. These 2 are the top.

I wonder why Hobbes does not see calvin as moving target.

Ooooh the humanity!

☺️

‘Civilisation’ in the sense of behaviour, is acquired, not innate.

Nature of the Beast and Toast of the Town.

Strands of DNA mom. Just look backwards for the answer.

Was that tuna salad on the toast?

And this is mom’s nature.

And now you know why Tigers sometimes eat their young.

Dogs love playing catch with treats.

Because Calvin is a child with a vivid imagination and a pet tiger.

That poor piece of toast never stood a chance against Hobbes.

Modern take on the fable of the fox and the scorpion.

Sometimes “fast food” really hits the spot and sometimes that spot there was some fast food. You should see my car seats. …no, maybe not.

Calvin being Calvin again.

That large middle panel was excellent, if nothing else.

Someone needs to invent round toast for calvin and call it something besides waffle.

It’s really not fair- Hobbs got to chase down his breakfast AND he gets out of clean-up duty.

Our toaster doesn’t do a kachunggg when the toast is done. In fact, it barely utters a whimper. But, not buying a new one just because of that.

Moms don’t understand creativity.

Because it’s in MY nature.

Good writing, great artwork. I snorted coffee.

Grape is the tiger’s favorite flavor of jelly. That is good to know

Hmmm… Tigers like and eat Peanut Butter??

Predators gonna predate.

Because it’s HIS nature

There’s a bit of ‘Calvin’ in most six year old boys. Brings back memories. My mum was pretty much a saint in that regard. RIP Mum.

That Calvin can act like a civilized human being is an impossibility!

Not fair, poor Calvin.

If you strap toast on a cat with the jelly side up, and drop both of them, which side will touch the ground first?
