This thread is now about your favorite Calvin and Hobbes. I think I like the series where they're doing family photos, and the dad is trying to get Calvin to stay still for 3 seconds. Some of the faces in that clip make me cry with laughter. I actually managed to download all the comics, they're a good way to find a smile.

He's right dude. Calvin and Hobbes is the purest art in comic form that I have ever had the privelege of experiencing.

I really thought the series where calvin signs up for baseball was one of the most reflective and poignant, but not the funniest. I think I'd give the humour edge to Calvinball and Tracer Bullet.

I like the one where they're playing the game they made up and one of them does something that results in them having to sing the "I'm Sorry Song." The ones where he makes the tripped out snowmen are solid gold as well.

i think the i'm sorry song is after hobbes forgot to touch 5th base, which was a turtle. haha

anything with the babysitter is great. or the camping trips- 'character building'.

The snowmen crack me up. Oh, and the one where he goes to take a bath, climbs in the toilet and flushes, spinning himself around. That's brilliant stuff.

Yeah, I really like far side too (I had the day calendars for as long as they made them), but it just seemed like C&H had so much more depth than far side. Watterson wasn't just writing one-liners, he was telling stories. I don't think anyone really relates to that beehive/hornrimmed glasses chick but everyone sees a little bit of themselves in Calvin.

Your rivered post reminded me of this, so I thought you guys would get a kick out of it.

We play a NL tourney at my house on Friday nights sometimes - no money, but the game is surprisingly decent. I have one friend who plays particularly fast and yesterday he rivered 3 people out of the game including me.

Later in the game, his AK that hit the Ace lost to my other friends rivered set of Queens. He said this:

"I died the way I lived. On the River."

Priceless.
