Calvin and Hobbes...

UncleMac

In this case, Calvin is being more typical than usual; he is not practicing active listening. Most of us only listen enough to prepare our reply... and that's not great communication... (time to start nodding)

UncleMac

I wonder why Calvin struggles so much with math? He's clearly brilliant in other ways...

UncleMac

Tiding of comfort & joy, indeed...

UncleMac

Ah, Christmas... when consumerism kicks into high gear...

UncleMac

It was worth a try...

UncleMac

Hopefully there's no anti-vaxxers in Calvin's class...

UncleMac

The monsters under my bed never talked... dammit...

UncleMac

I wonder what the actual meal is? I used to do this kind of thing with the kids too... pretend whatever I made for supper was made up of something bizarre or gross.

UncleMac

Coffee instead of water, please...

UncleMac

We've got at least double that amount just now...

UncleMac

He sees you when you're sleeping; he knows when you're awake! Santa or CIA spook??

UncleMac

"Pure as the driven snow"?

UncleMac

Poor Calvin... he just can't win, can he?

UncleMac

I wonder why Calvin doesn't want to share his comic books? Maybe Hobbes draws mustaches on characters?

UncleMac

Sometimes Hobbes is the pragmatic voice of reason. Other times...

UncleMac

I would prefer a nice drone but a heat-seeking guided missile might be fun too...

UncleMac

For what it's worth, Santa Claws wasn't wrong...

I'm not sure a flamethrower would be as much fun as Calvin thinks but I've never tried one so...

Octosyllabic rhyme; each line has eight syllables and ends with a rhyme. Who says cartoons can't be educational?
