Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for September 26, 2011

How fast the scene changes…

poor Hobbes, doesn’t a thing about girls…lol

Calvin will take care of you; Hobbes!

She’ll love him forever now. Odd how that works.

Very next day Susie will come with smiling face :)

See Calvin if you had let Susie stay ..you wouldn’t be bored.

Why does Susie call Calvin Dandelion Head? I have not heard that epithet before. Is it because he has no substance (just a lot of fluff), or he’s scatter-brained, or what?

Calvin apparently thinks “fhere’s a method to his madness”, but to me it seems more that there’s a madness to his method.

@Puddleglum2…Susie called Calvin a ‘dandelion head’ because his blond, spiky hair looks like the top of the dandelion flower which is called a dandelion head. The fluffy yellow bits are attached to the seeds and they float away in the breeze.

“If you knew Susie like I know Susie…”Eddie Cantor

Probably talking about girls.

Don’t you know anything, Hobbes?

@ Puddleglum2 the answer to your question is… Yes..

what does it mean Dandelion head? can you please . .. tell me …?

Bet Susie is related to Lucy from Peanuts. Both blowhards.

It just occured to me that politicians are a lot like diapers. They both need changing occasionally for the same reason.

Calvin, best guardian of Hobbes!

Hey…don’t blame Calvin if boys are just wired that way. There’s absolutely NOTHING we males can do about it…lol

Awwwwww, Don’t be mean to her Calvin!

Poor Susie! Hope always springs eternal for her. Rather than avoiding the little “dandelion head” like the plague because he’s always so mean to her, she keeps coming back with a big smile on her face, hoping that this is the day he’ll finally let her play with him and Hobbes! Unfortunately for her, he never does.

:-(

Hobbes is irritated because he wanted Suzie to stay so he could get some “smoochies” from her. Calvin shot that one down, at least for that day….

If Calvin DID let Susie play, he’d have to revoke his life membership of G.R.O.S.S

Better bored than with a cootie-ridden girl… at least when you are six.

Do not give up Susie,he is giving in a little bit at a time.

It is a great tribute to Bill Watterson that there are consistently more comments on this strip, even though it has been complete for a long time, than any other strip! It hits the heart of everyone with timeless ideas.

I wish I was having fun. :(

@steve26: Excellent Point of Procedure, Sir! Duly recognized and duly noted by another full-fledged member of G.R.O.S.S.!! :——)))

Make like a dandelion Calvin and blow away! Love it!
