Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for May 07, 2012

maybe he can build up a gum collection like patrick

He didn’t look too far. I’ve done that a few times since attaining “adulthood.” But only when I’m alone.

Orifices are very amusing, Hobbes.

(in the voice of Snagglepuss)….“Thufferin’ Thuccatash!!!”

Dang! If I’d only thought to do that when I was little, I would have avoided many spankings because of my “colorful” language.

Please what’s Neffa mean ? i’m alway chewing gum too …some day without it do i have some thing wrong in my live h ahaa

I can’t understand, what Calvin is saying in the last panel!

“An orifice is an amusing thing, alright.” Alright. (Can hardly believe I’m reading this in the comics.)

“Its funny how you never see grown ups doing this.”

Here is an old strip, from 2003 B.C.Click here: B.C. (2003)

Patrick is not “a gum collection”! :o)

But will it lose it’s flavor, on his bedpost overnite..?

“Heavens to Murgatroyd!” It was Sylvester who said “Thufferin’ Thuccatash”. Snagglepuss probably wouldn’t eat succotash, even!

Calvin’s father goes to the ‘orifice’ every morning! He has a patent on it!

“A gum-chewing kid and a cud-chewing cow

both look alike yet different somehow. . . .

Ah yes! I have it now.

It’s the intelligent look on the face of the cow."

Does your chewing gum lose its flavour on the bedpost overnight? When your Mother says don’t chew it, do you swallow it in spite? Can you catch it on your tonsils, can you heave it left and right?, etc. . . . . .Lonnie Donegan, 1959

OMG!!! THATS WHAT I DO!!!! ( i just stop after 3 pieces)

We did not spend our money on gum ,what little money we had went on chocolate bars.or ice cream.

He oblivious doesn’t watch baseball! There’s some serious players there.

Growing older is mandatory . . . growing up is optional! ;-)

only u calvin only u

i believe hobbes was being sarcastic when he said orifice was amusing

Grown ups only do that when they’ve visited the dentist and they’re coming home with stuff in their “moufs” ….

Weird but always funny

I wonder if Calvin submitted his findings to Chewing magazine.

I’ve done that sometimes.
