The snowmen were always worthwhile.

Don’t you see? Calvin doesn’t belong in this world. Calvin and Hobbes are a microcosm or the world in the decade before the internet. When we still played outside. Before the millennium.

Those were halcyon days


So thankful I grew up in that time. But, sad daily that my kids won't experience it.

I still don't get how someone hasn't been sued over the pissing Calvin truck decals. There's no way Watterson signed off on that.

Sorry. You cannot make your kids live in the pre-internet, cell phone, play outside days now. You can find pockets of it here and there but you cannot live it as it truly was.

No. We all know the truth. There's no going back. Social Media and the internet have changed things forever.

It'll never be like it was. Even if you'd like it to be.

Children are only as good as the world allows them to be. You'll see.

Exactly. I love the comment though, from some pedestal, like kids are just not being raised right.

I always looked forward to a new C&H strip...but when I'd see the snowmen, I'd say "dis gonna be good."
