Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for May 19, 1990
Transcript:
Calvin: Hey dad, would you pay me a dollar to eat a bug? Dad: No, you'd have to eat a bucket of bugs before I'd pay you a dollar. Calvin: A whole bucket? Dad: Or I'd pay you a dollar to pick up sticks in the back yard. Calvin: All my real skills are undervalued.
“I’d pay you a penny per bug, so you’d have to eat 100 bugs to earn a dollar.”
