Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for January 15, 2025

Calvin already has enough zeros.

Calvin, there’s something suspicious going on…..

Wait, he realizes she’s messing with him but then he quickly writes smth on the paper with such focus and tells Suzie that he knows what 3 hundred billion gazillion is…. Calvin, what did you write down?

The rest of the answer continued on the back.

Remember when she slipped him the answer “Imadoofus”?

So a gazillion equals 100 trevigintillion. Got it.

This New Math is tough.

13 is an unlucky number.

That’s less than a google, which has 100 zeroes.

Never trust a girl, they’re practiced at deception.

This new math keeps getting weirder and weirder!

7+6=15 in base 8.

Trust a female to exaggerate!

Or 3 to the 85th power.

I’m guessing that Calvin is a “Many worlds” advocate.

Easier to write 3 × 10^85.

Come on… IT’S BASIC MATH ALREADY!!

14

Hope tomorrow is a follow-on

Me not theenk he could be this stoopid. Why no using your feengers to counts? It ain’t a very big number.

And Calvin calls himself as genius.

Hmm, isn’t that how many stars are in the sky? lol

Got me to thinking of Reverend Jim Ignatowski taking his driver’s test on Taxi.

Reverend Jim Ignatowski: [to Bobby] Psst. What does a yellow light mean?

Bobby Wheeler: Slow down.

Reverend Jim Ignatowski: OK. What… does… a… yellow… light… mean?Bobby Wheeler: Slow down!

Reverend Jim Ignatowski: OK. Wwwwhhhaaaat dooeesss aaaa yyyeeeellllowwww lllliiiight mmmmeeeannn?
