Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for August 23, 2024

Maybe Hobbes could be your P. R. man…..

Did Calvin even do the job at all?

Or pay someone else to do the job.

so says the future member of congress

Take a lesson from the Biden-Harris regime.

Calvin did “the bestest job ever” any other opinion is “fake news”

Looks like my place. No. I’m not in my second childhood. I’m in my third……

Today’s strip reminds me of an early one from one of the first two collections. Calvin asked Dad why he doesn’t take as long to clean a room as Mom does. Dad replied, “Could be I’m more efficient.” Calvin answered, “Could be you don’t do as thorough a job as Mom does.” Dad replied, “Go bother someone else, Mr Critic!” Calvin held up a large dustball and asked Dad if he could take it to Show and Tell. Dad replied, “Listen, Calvin. This dustball is going to be our little secret, okay?” An out-of-panel Mom was yelling at Dad, “Honey! What is this mess!? I thought you’d cleaned this room!”

Calvin is clearly taking after his Dad where it comes to cleaning.

Looks like the work of the Room Cleaning Czar

Cal, you should have spoken at the DNC lastnight.

Nobody’s that good of a PR person.

This reminds me of someone…(scratches head)…

That room looks like the transcript of one of the Orange Baboon’s speeches.

Are those darts in the wall?

You need to talk with the harris/walz PR team of dewey, cheatem, and howe…

Wait! Wasn’t there suppose to be a strip where Calvin is punished for flooding the house yesterday?

Panel three, Calvin’s Expression!! OMG, just perfect, I must say

Get a little help from your friend……..maybe the room is imaginary!!!!!!

You can’t put one over on your mom Calvin, she’s way too smart for you.

Poor Arizona George. As Reagan might have said, there he goes again. (Pearls before swine) Today, Calvin seems to bear a strong resemblance to the republican party.

Hope Buttercup is wearing that face come November 6.

Budding CEO.

Spoken like a true ineffectual middle-management corporate suck-up…

Destined for a life in politics.

Better PR helps, Calvin. But so does doing a better job.

Maybe you can pay Hobbes to clean the room for you.

Have a chat with Hammie? www.gocomics.cOm/babyblues/2024/08/23

I doub’t that anything will come out cleaner of it though…

Most boys have messy rooms. I know I did as a kid. My apartment now isn’t that much better! LOL!!

Just learn brazen aggressive lying. Look how well it works for the orangeman.

Shouldn’t his mom be more concerned about the fact that the entire kitchen is underwater?

Don’t know how old this strip is, but Calvin hit the nail on the head. Sadly, nowadays PR is everything.

Hell actually is not bad. It just needs a better public relations firm.

Future politician eh!

I can really see where all the political commentators are becoming extremely frustrated with the comment ban on political cartoons! I’ll bet Trump is, too!!

He must be related to Hammie!

Or plausible deniability.

A born politician, and that goes beyond party lines!

Take pride in all you do, as that is how people judge your character.

OK, the nuttiest thing just happened: I clicked “Random” and got taken to this EXACT SAME comic from when it was displayed in 2014.

No PR could save you from the non-job you did on your messy room!!

What happened with the flooded kitchen…was that a dream!

Why have all of you feel the need to turn this NON POLICITAL comic polictal? You need to grow up and let us enjoy our comics without all the polictal cr*p!!!!!!!!!!

A great career in what, I believe, is now called “corporate communications” awaits Calvin.

This six year old sounds parliamentary. That feline seem to understand the irony.

Sounds like the Democrats, except he didn’t scream, rave and explode when she disagreed with him
