Candid Opinions
Posted: October 19th, 2011 | No Comments »
You’re a bat-faced, bug-eyed, booger-nosed, baloney-brained beetle-butt! This volunteer social work just isn’t for me. Calvin sits behind a box reading “”Candid Opinions”". Susie walks by, and Calvin calls her a bat-faced, bug-eyed, booger-nased, baloneybrained, beetle-butt. Lying on his smashed box, Calvin suggests volunteer social work isn’t for him.
On first sight, this might be one of the classic “Calvin teases Susie and gets what he deserves” strips. If you read it slowly and try to picture Calvin’s words, it becomes even better. It gives you precious insights to the child world of Calvin where terrible things are bats, bugs, boogers and beetles.
