Against my religious principles.

Wish I thought of that when I was taking tests.

I tried that once after reading this as a kid. Didn’t go over well.

hahah.. it as a freakin easy question! lol

how come calvin never uses his fingers

He only has four on each hand… he’d have to use his toes for this one…

im gonna take a wild guess and say 9.o.0

BRILLIANT!!

I think Calvin should be reminded that tigers can only count to eight. Humans can deal with ten!

GENIUS!

CALVIN AMOTHER “F” COMING MY FRIEND

I am Nerdish so it is against my principles not to, so 9

Calvin!!! Hobbes taught you that answer should be 27!

@Starfollower, you are more generous than my first thoughts.

Time for Spaceman Spiff!

Well, at least he ANSWERED the question!

His religion prohibits the number nine.

In a later comic Calvin declares himself a math atheist.

This reminds me of Big Nate

what is against religious principles?

Qwestion?

i should try this sometime

I’m in 7th grade, so I might try it on pop quiz

Truth. Even more so in 2018.

What religion is that?

Be careful, Mr. Watterson. This may be slightly controversial.

Qwestion?

Will work, when sum equates 666.

This is certainly a qwestionable strategy.

Just figure it out!

The sad part is people, (adults!) are trying to pull this off today.

“I cannot answer this qwestion, as it a9ainst my weligious pwinciples.”

No Hobbes or imagination?
