I named my cat Hobbes.

I hate when people don't know what Calvin and Hobbes is... Such a big part of my childhood.

Its funny, in 6th grade I made 3 life-long friends (and the gang was started) over reading calvin and hobbes in the lunchroom. It was when all 8 elementary schools were dumped into one middle school, so we were all thrown into a new environment. my best friends just sat down at my table and were like "hey I like calvin and hobbes too!" Its nuts because they all ride/MTB/like the outdoors as well.

Have all the books. The snowman one with the diving board, golf club, and tennis racket may be one of my favorite "one strip" comics ever.

i love calvin and hobbes. a huge part of my childhood for sure. i actually had a recent revalation regarding calvin and hobbes. i dont know if any of you guys have seen "sucker punch," but i realized that they basically stole the concept of using an action sequence to mirror whats actually happening from spaceman spiff. hopefully that makes sense...

here's how it goes:

In the first frame, Calvin hand his mom a book and says, "I read this library book you got me". She asks him what he thought of it. In the second frame he says, "It really made me see things differently. It's given me a lot to think about." In the third frame, his mom says, "I'm glad you enjoyed it". Calvin's closing response is: "It's complicating my life. Don't get me any more."
