31 Days of Calvin and Hobbes: Day 30

I feel like this all the time. I can rattle off all kinds of nonsense, but rarely is it actually what someone is looking for. Oh well. Calvin will make a great architect someday.

31 Days of Calvin and Hobbes: Day 23

Before other kids started providing smart answers on tests, Calvin was finding his own loopholes. I always enjoyed using the "Guess and Check" strategy on math exams, and would do what I could to game the system if I didn't know the answer outright. Sadly, though, as I'm sure Calvin will soon realize, this will not result in a correct answer. Unless your teacher is awesome.

31 Days of Calvin and Hobbes: Day 21

People rarely use cameras that require film nowadays, but I think this concept still applies. Anytime I'm trying to take a selfie with ma girls, it seems like at least one of us makes a face or isn't looking. Or is making a face WHILE not looking. There's all kinds of nonsensical glory going around.

Calvin is being a typical disobedient child here, while simultaneously trying to find a loophole in taking a nice picture for the family. I also really just like Calvin's face in the third panel. If I can ever figure out how to make my mouth look like that...well, watch out, world.

31 Days of Calvin and Hobbes: Day 20

Anyone who currently has a kid probably will hate this, but having only been one myself, I love it. I'm sure I woke my mom up a number of times with silly questions like this. In my (and Calvin's) defense, we didn't have easily accessible internet--Googling something was just a pipe dream.

I especially like how Calvin isn't deterred by his mother getting angry at him. That's the real sign of a persistent kid.

I've always been envious of the people who can so easily adopt the "ignorance is bliss" mindset so easily. Contrary to what Hobbes says, I think that can be a wonderful way to live.
