Calvinist1966 Free

Born in 1966. Live in the UK. Favourite strip is Calvin and Hobbes so - like many others - I have taken my username from it. My second favourite is Andy Capp. The Wizard of Id and Red and Rover are in strong competition for third place.

    Malvin could be a cross between Calvin and a Marvin – either Marvin the Paranoid Android or Marvin Martian. I think you mean a cross between Mom (or Ma) and Calvin.

    There are so many Alices. Others I can think of include Alice in the Twilight books and movies who inspired the phrase “Betting against Alice” as her predictions of the future were nearly always correct, Alice Kramden in “The Honeymooners” and the Alice of “Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore”.

    I like commenting on errors as other people comment on mine.

    Yorky in Fred Basset makes the sound “Yip! YIp! Yip!” so I sometimes refer to him in my postings as the Yorkshire Yipper.

    Curiouser and curiouser.

    As I say, many other readers accept that the duplicates of Calvin were real. This was debated between readers during the two duplicator story arcs. I do like your argument about Calvin messing up his hair after it appeared neat. It does work because Susie did not see Calvin with neat hair after seeing his messed up hair again. Your argument would not be sound if she had seen him with neat hair again soon afterwards.

    Someone recently commented that The Calvin and Hobbes Tenth Anniversary Book seems to be my Bible. I replied that it is not my Bible but my Calvin and Hobbes Bible. Similarly, Watterson is NOT my god but he is the creator of the fictional Calvin and Hobbes universe so he understands that universe better than anyone else. The fact that he did NOT see Hobbes as part of Calvin’s marvellous imagination – like you I loved the story arc in which Calvin and Hobbes imagined themselves going to Mars in a toy wagon – but as a separate character to Calvin clearly influences the way that Hobbes is characterized.

    We want to see it wrecked in another of your spectacular toboggan crashes.

    Is it the best day of their nine lives or just the best day of one of their nine lives?

    I suppose they will have to get to their ninth life to be sure.

    Rhyming “elbow” with “smell show” would have child appeal.
