Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for September 21, 1995
Transcript:
Dad: Look at all this peanut butter! There must be three sizes of five brands of four consistencies! Who demands this much choice?? I know! I'll quit my job and devote my life to choosing peanut butter! Is "chunky" chunky enough, or do I need "EXTRA chunky"? I'll compare ingredients! I'll compare brands! I'll compare sizes and prices! Maybe I'll drive around and see what OTHER stores have! So much selection and so little time! (To Mom): I think YOU should do the shopping. Mom: Did the manager have to talk to you again? Calvin: Hey, where's the peanut butter?!
Some people like the chance to pick and choose, Dad! A little variety means everybody can get what they like. Also, has this happened before? How does he function in society?
