   No human is illegal, no pasta is wrong. In Italy, there are approximately 350 recognized varieties of pasta, although some sources suggest there could be more than this due to regional variations and new creations. All pasta is good pasta. I have spoken.

   As most Calvin fans know, there are a few fan-based homage strips out there that depict Calvin as an adult, married to Susie, living life as a happy, well-adjusted, intelligent and sagacious dad. Very sweet. And it ain’t gonna happen. This kid is going to grow up to be… what? Donald Trump? Bernie Madoff? Unknown, but it’s going to be something unsavory.

    To anyone with at least a quarter of a brain, it would be painfully obvious that Stef is a raging narcissist and totally out of touch with anything outside her own skull. At this point, Kip would be wise to tell Stef, “We haven’t made up. Goodbye, again” – even if he found someone better than Tiffany, which would not be hard to do.
