Nope, I never really followed that stuff, although it seems funny. I tend to mostly check comics in French.

My favorite comic! 

Question 1: Do you know the comic where Calvin keeps trying to fill a water balloon and it backfires on him? (Such as bursting, or squiritng when he tries to tie a knot)

Question 2: I believe the Hobbes is like the toys from Toy Story--imo, he chooses to take solid form around other people, and moves when he's only around Calvin.  Despite what the author intended, what's your opinion?

Calvin and Hobbes got me through elementary school.  I still love it (them?).

I was supposed to get a Calvin and Hobbes tattoo in August actually, but ended up having to spend my money on an unexpected expense (still plan on getting it though)

1. Yep. Actually, I've read every single comic strip. (I own the treasuries ;D)
2. I personally think that Hobbes doesn't come to life around Calvin, but rather it is a bit of an exaggeration on how Calvin imagines Hobbes, since there are many instances in which Calvin is talking to Hobbes seeing him as a real tiger, while his parents just see him playing with his stuffed animal.

No problem.  By the way, it's a Sunday one, meaning it's extra long.

I like it, haven't read them in a long time though :P

I recently prefer XKCD and Cyanide and Happiness.
