Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for August 29, 2011

Ack, right up the nose!

Burururpp stops the sex appeal!

Don’t believe everything you see in commercials. Side effects may include some super-massive burps.

Calvin, thank God you are safe now. Think what would have been Susie’s reaction if the commercials have been true.

Do it again.

That’s certainly a new way of “snorting” Coke. Cool!

Sex appeal hardly applies to six-year-olds, fortunately.There are many millions of out-of-wedlock pregnancies, abortions, and STDs, already!

At least Calvin is burping ‘by himself’. No one who objects to burping in public should be subjected to it. Occasionally, a person might inadvertently burp, and a quick apology or ‘excuse me’ will suffice.

That was a good one Calvin…lol…almost scared the stripes off of Hobbes!

Big cola stop it cold

If I need to burp like that, I have to clench my cheeks.

Calvin, I’d say your sex appeal has taken a turn for the worse.

Don’t know about Susie, but other boys might find it sexy. Look out Calvin.

Guess the sex appeal thing depends on whom you are trying to attract. Moe would be impressed.

Better burping than farting??

Calvin, you’ve got fizz appeal!

probably what the actors in the commercial were doing between takes – I could see Lucky what’s-his-name doing that!

Lucky Vanous – Coke commercial: knew it would come to me

He will belch sweet nothings into your ear.

It’s the belch that refreshes..

I have a brain numbing image in my head of what a woman who would find this sexually appealing might be like.

Well, there went sex appeal out the window. But your too young to have it anyway.

For everyone who’s complained about Calvins’ parents’ parenting methods over the last week or so, you’re not alone… Watterson got the same kinds of complaints back when the strips were first published. Calvin’s Dad saying “…I offered to buy us a dachshund, but, no, you said…” was probably the final straw that got him (and many newspaper editors) a flood of angry mail. He thought it was funny but didn’t realize how many people would dislike it, so he eventually toned down how callous they were.

Maybe not sex appeal, but little boy appeal.

My guess is that Calvin doesn’t fully get the concept of “sex appeal.” He just perceives it to be cool, without realizing what sort of attention it would get him.

I agree: six-year old boys don’t qualify for sex appeal. Unless they are washed and tidied up for a special occasion, I suppose.

.

Have to say, though, I love that third panel. Hard to say whether Calvin or Hobbes is funnier.

When I was a kid I made my friend laugh so hard while he was drinking a cola that it shot right out his nose. Sure cleans out the sinuses!

WHOA! that definitely made him more attractive to me LOL NOT!

Is Doc Toon branching out from coffee to sodas now?

Tell me why Calvin, dictator-for-life of the Get Rid Of Slimy girlS club, would want to increase his sex appeal?

Eeeeeeeeeew!

Some time ago, there was a toothpaste that advertised that it gave your mouth sex appeal. For some strange reason, that ad is not played anymore! —Also, remember when everything, especially toothpaste had to have chlorophil (sp) in it. If it was so good, why isn’t it still used?

But you have to admit a good strong burp “à la Calvin”makes you feel good afterwards. Specially if you’ve hada heavy meal. :-))

P.S. – I love Hobbes’ reaction in window 3.

Calvin practicing making low frequency effects for a voice-over for the cola company…

Pepsi is known to do that.

It’s been decades since I last drank of a glass Cola bottle like Calvin’s!

That’s SO hot!! My bf and I have burping contests all the time!! Go Calvin!!

them big burps feel so good

Why would Dictator-For-Life of the exclusive G.R.O.S.S. club want to drink a special cola that’s supposed to “greatly increase” his sex appeal??? Either he doesn’t comprehend what that truly means or ………. maybe ………. could it be ………. that he doesn’t really hate girls as much as he thinks he does?!?!

If burps aren’t sexy how on earth did I get married?

My nose burns just reading the comic and comments. It remembers the sensation—OW!

Thanks for the info regarding Looney Tunes. I might be able to watch if I didn’t use my free time reading GoComics. :D I do own one DVD of toons but they play the theme song before each and every one!
