Coming Soon đ At the beginning of April, youâll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your

Calvin, in order to supervisor you need four men leaning on shovels and a clipboard. A cop making double time drinking coffee doesnât hurt. BREAK TIME!
Lewreader:
Can you explain how a cop can make âdouble time drinking coffeeâ? Maybe it soemhow relates to the time he spends in court on his own time?
TN-REDD,
Howard Cosell once scolded Muhammad Ali by saying, âYouâre being extremely truculentâ, to which Ali replied, âWhatever âtruculentâ means, if thatâs good, Iâm that.â
TN-REDD,
Are you saying that you think erudition accurately describes me? If you say the wrong answer, I might become truculent.
BTW, how is it that iterate and reiterate mean the same thing? I was about to use iterate instead of say, but it means repeat as does reiterate???
There is something humbling about being thrown in the garbage by oneâs own stuffed animal - rather than the usual (which is vice-versa).
Probably a healthy development.
DSOM A cop making double time drinking coffee might have something to do with the fact most cops doing construction work are working overtime, paid by the construction company. This pads their retirement so the end up making more retired than their salary. Of course this is paid by the poor city tax payer. Unions have municipalities by a strangle hold. Since they retire so young (20 years on the job) they collect for a long time.
Puddleglum2 said, âBTW, how is it that iterate and reiterate mean the same thing?â
Good one. I think iterate has a technical connotation to it also- to repeat.
This makes me wonder. Why do fat chance and slim chance mean the same?
Cleave has two meanings that are antonyms (separate or cut and come or be in close contact).
Too many people in management lilke this. Even when they loaf, they are resting after making such âtoughâ decisions.
More likely wondering if they will be found out that their so called talents are over rated and be laid off and the job be done just as well or better overseas at a fraction of the cost these overpaid pukes are paid.
âIâm the organizerâ sounds like a jab at G.W. Bushâs âIâm the deciderâ statement, except that Calvin said it nearly 20 years before Bush.
This might be a commentary about how rich company owners do jacksh*t amounts of work compared to all their employees, yet gets paid more money then all his employees combined, while his employees are called lazy, while the owner is called hardworking. i,e,) Jeff Bezos.

Good that he didnât say that to his Mom. He would have been dumped in the deepest part of Pacific.
Guess the room isnât going to get cleaned any time soon.

Calvin, you are not the organizer any more. You are being properly organized inside the trash can. Well done Hobbes !
weedersea over 14 years ago
If Calvin put more energy into doing work instead of telling Hobbes what to do, the room would be clean already.
Nice animation of Calvin here, everybody!

I think Hobbes thinks calvin is speaking balderdash.That leads him to be truculent.

Calvin is âThe Deciderâ, because of the mandate in his own mind.

Puddleglum2: Thanks for the new word. Again⊠âErudition.â Please correct me if Iâm wrong. Does âEruditionâ accurately discribe yourself ?

But that misses the whole point, which is to not clean the room, or at least take as long as possible.
