Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for December 16, 2008

Everyone’s a critic, Calvin, even Hobbes.

Actually, wouldn’t that be a goiter?

When X-mas is comeing more money would be very useful!

If the government can produce worthless money, why can’t Calvin ?

Maybe Calvin can help GM out of its bind.

I wonder what Daddy will say.

Calvin has a pencil on his ear in Panel 2.. cuuutteeee!

I loveeee C&H.. such a solid humor, superb thinking and ultra-cute characterization!

BTW.. my C&H Collector’s Edition (the 1 shown on the Right hand side) si already here and ohhh such a collection to die for!

This is the hardest Calvin has ever worked.

good luck with that calvin o.o

Is this a peek into Calvin’s future as an adult? If so, he has plenty of time to perfect his talents.

I had to go look up what gout was. :)

Wait till he realizes the time he’s wasting working on singles…heh

Wonder what mom will have to say about this effort. If only Calvin put a quarter of this effort into his studies, he wouldn’t find himself in the principal’s office that often.

To me it looks like a crayon. Even Cuuutteeeerrrr!!!

Calvin’s shortcuts sure are long and exhausting.

Gotta love C&H’s nonchalance…no bg deal, just counterfeiting.

I believe that you are correct, sir. Gout inflames the joints, usually in the feet. Goiter would appear in his neck.

Wait a minute….isn’t a “goiter” something a Brooklyn hooker uses to keep her nylons up??

Maybe hobbes is saying that calvins drawing looks like a foot?

I believe you’re thinking of a “garter” :)

Also, wndrwrthg is correct

I perplexed that word so I looked it up in the old “paperback” dictionary. I found it. That was why I figured that out imaginably what his face/neck looked like on the dollar. Did he have it or not? Lols!

If you look at a $1.00 bill you will see that George looks like he has a Goiter but it is actually an ugly scarf he has on. Probably given to him by Martha.

I like calvins materials,in particular,his 5 basic color crayons and the scissors.It seems that he would try to counterfiet 20s,but 1s would be all calvin has

True, it should be goiter. On the other hand, Calvin is a six year old. I’m astonished he even knows the word gout, and that it’s a medical condition. I forgive him the little error. I’ve been known to be wrong once or twice myself - as the old saying has it, Once I though I was wrong, but I was mistaken!

I think Calvin either needs a taller chair, or a shorter desk. :P

I wish I could do that!

I always loved this funny comics

Smackin’ myself in the forehead…..ouuuhhhhhhhhhhhh OPTIMYSITC; same word, it’s the accent… lol

Hard at work
