    This seemed familiar...

    Sums up today's society perfectly!

    Best comic EVER! Have the hardback edition, 3 books with every strip he published. My kids even started reading them.

    I named my kid Calvin. He's stacking up true to his namesake at times.

    That strip was one of my favorites.

    I'm a high school teacher, and have that exact strip posted in my classroom. It never gets old....and most adolescents just don't get it.

    The sad part about it is everyone thinks they are on the other side of that.

    I own every Calvin and Hobbes book. My favorite cartoons by far. I think I'll start reading them again. I need some cheering up.
