And then you had other panels where the whole joke was Calvin being pounced on by Hobbs. A recurring event that as a kid I always compared to Charlie Brown trying to kick the football.
The difference is, Charlie Brown makes no attempt to substitute the ball holder, and continues to get frustrated at an obvious outcome.
Calvin is a child playing by himself, using imagination to create a fantasy world where he’s sailing the seas, or exploring the moon, or being hunted by dinosaurs…and then he pretends his best friend uses his distractions to tackle him at 60mph.
When you think about it, Calvin & Hobbs is really the story of a lonely boy seeping deeper and deeper into mental illness, while he struggles with low self esteme due to lack of a social life.
Meanwhile his parents mostly ignore him. Only being used in panels where Calvin needs discipline. Which is ironic, because the most famous image of Calvin is him peeing.
No no…he had it right the first time.
Everybody thinks Biden is an old white man. But if scooby doo has taught me anything, it’s that you can always tie up the person you least expect, and then pull off their mask revealing someone totally different.
So in this regard, we now know that Biden is actually a black woman in disguise. Which is strange, because if Michelle Obama would have run instead of Hillary, I think she would have won. Hands down.
