Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for November 30, 2011

He must be a member of Congress!

I thought what Calvin had was plenty of UNcommon sense!

i’ll try to ignore the common sense :D:D

I’ve always wondered why they cal it COMMON sense: it is theleast common thing on the face of the earth!

@Dogsnifflol

Don’t take grammar lessons from mom, Calvin. “got no”?

I like the time does Calvin is cheeky , face… ha haa

To forget or ignore unpleasent makes life much more easy!

@Susan Newman….I agree. I can’t believe he told the truth for once….lol

Ignoring common sense is not uncommon for Calvin. It’s not uncommon to many – young and older.

I live with an 80 yr old Calvin—sometimes I AM Calvin

He may not have common sense, but he is honest, and has (at the moment) a good sense of his own qualities!

That’s right, Calvin.

LOL xxx

Growing up, I heard the phrase that Calvin’s Mom used in Panel 2 so many times that I vowed to never use it with my kids as they grew up. In fact, I never use it at all with anyone.

Le sens commun n’est pas si commun. – Voltaire

he needs a good old spanking

Don’t we all ignore it…

Calvin doing a little “break” dancing with the dishes…

I doubt Watterson would have approved.

I think most adults choose to ignore common sense.

Hobbes & Dogsniff:Much faster responses today, hopefully the webmasters got the kinks out for good. Nice change. Thanks for keeping on this problem!

It’s his Uncommon sense that makes him the boy wonder.

Who needs common sense when you have Hobbes.

Love that tiger.

You seem to have the same mentality as calvin does in this strip:http://www.gocomics.com/calvinandhobbes/1988/07/10

A mentality which Watterson was pretty outspoken against. Also, have you seen the cartoon incarnations of Dilbert, Baby Blues, etc? They ruined the original creation

Of course it is common sense. Why make more than one trip?

LOL!

Ha—I may have to steal that idea from you, Calvin.

Don’t hold your breath; this morning (9:30 EST) I couldn’t get on at all. Later this afternoon was better, but there are still problems. With the problems I’ve seen on the site, they may not even SEE your message until after Christmas (if it isn’t “accidentally” deleted first.) There are other places to get your comics fix, but without the comments it’s like making out with your sister. What you thought you came for is right there in front of you, but somehow it just isn’t the same and doesn’t feel quite right.

Okay, maybe what I said came out wrong- the cartoons did not ruin the originals. However, the cartoons were terrible, and did not do justice to their sources. My point is that a good comic strip does not necessarily make a good animated cartoon, because it is difficult to translate something that runs in 4-pannel spurts into a 30-minute TV show.

Same here.
