    I wonder what kind of silly clothing Calvin would choose?

    Bill Watterson remained adamant throughout the run of his cartooning that he would not commercialize Calvin & Hobbes... He had to be persuaded to do anthologies of the daily comics and he refused to license his images to make products (ie: no stuffed toys etc)... so clearly Calvin is more money-hungry & less principled than his creator.

    No wonder he talks to his stuffed tiger; everybody else his age would stare and go 'huh? Weird kid'.
    Lol Kinda reminds me of the year I took my ds trick or treating, he was maybe age 5 and he starts talking about robotics to the person handing out candy. Boy, did I get a blank stare. :)

    I wonder what he wants to spend $20 on?

    this remind me of my coworker, always wining about people not paying attention to her

    Maybe if you offer your coworker $20, she'll stop?

    I wish it were that simple....
    Kinda sounds like your coworker might be a narcissist. If so, give this a read... CLICK!!

    I think it would be easier if she was a narcissist, she just has no confidence, everything is "OMG what did i do" when all you do is say her name...

    Sounds like the kind of thing my kids would do.

    For example, my daughter and her grade 1 class all made Halloween themed arts projects back in the day. The kids were asked to name their critters... so my daughter named the bat she made "Echo Location".

    That's hard to deal with... especially if you're a coworker, not a supervisor...

    I got totally distracted yesterday... long story... so here's Saturday's comic and I'll follow with Sunday's forthwith...

    Why Math class, Calvin... that's where you need to focus...

    That being said, when I was a kid, the margins of my notebooks were crammed with doodles of cars, motorcycles, you name it... I was smart enough that when the teacher went over things again & again repeatedly that if I didn't distract myself, I might fall asleep at my desk...

    I wonder what Susie sees in Calvin? It's hard to imagine there aren't other kids to play with...
