2. Calvin and Hobbes is one of the best comic strips ever
I remember eagerly looking forward to reading it every day.

I admire the artist a lot, too. Remained true to his principles and resisted becoming a franchise.

I agree, haven't seen a better strip before or since.

5. My all-time favorite is Calvin hammering nails into the coffee table.
That's just so six-year old-ish.

7. I remember that one.
Calvin's mom rushing in yelling "What are you doing!?!"
Calving looking at the nails in the coffee table and the hammer in his hand "Is that a trick question?"

LOL

15. Republicans confuse a comic strip with real life
As Sweet Lovable Ol' Barn used to say, "Chuckle, chuckle, sob."

And if you remember DJ Barney Keep from KEX, you are old.
