It’s your imagination Calvin, so, like, there is nothing wrong with Hobbes. By the way, should Hobbes disappear for a day or three, he and I are walking the countryside singing smock, smock, smock
Calvin is the teacher today, and Hobbes is the “Calvin” who isn’t paying attention in class, because his mind is on more interesting things. Miss Wormwood has often wondered what on earth is wrong with Calvin.
Certain words are just fun coming out of your mouth! We used to have a news lady named Anita Padia and I used to say her name all the time because it made my mouth happy!!
I love saying the word “smock” also! “Ukelele” too! “Ukelele” doesn’t pop out quite like smock, but whenever I have to come up with a random word, it’s always “ukelele”. Pardon me, I must go strum on my ukelele…
I got to meet Steve Allen and had him autograph his book, “Dumbth” with "To Jim, Schmock, schmock! Steve Allen.We got our picture in the paper, my brother, dad and myself with Steve. We never missed Steve’s show in the 60’s.
@Dogsniff: Yes, that’s correct. That was in Germany at the end of World War II. He wasn’t ordered to toss it, because he was the leader. He changed his mind when he saw the dog.

Frankly, Calvin, I’d be more worried about what your Dad is gonna say to you when he finds out that you’ve ruined one of his very best shirts!

Hobbes is correct. You can also tell the quality of a writer by the quality of his quills.

Someone is going to get a smock in the mouth.
Hobbes Premium Member about 12 years ago
The smock looks a whole lot larger on Hobbes whenever another person walks into the room.

In the last panel, Calvin’s face looks like one of his snowmen, with hair and an ear added.
