I didn't like Calvin and Hobbs. it just wasn't that funny to me. and I don't get what's funny about that particular one either...

then again I pretty much don't like any comics ever...

Calvin and Hobbes was more about characters and situations than jokes. You had to appreciate Hobbes's wry wisdom and Calvin's insanity to like the comic. A lot of people did, so I'm surprised it only lasted ten years.

It was also more about visuals than dialogue. If you look through the strips, you'll notice the exaggeration of some facial expressions, and the wackiness of the strip's drawings. Plus Bill Watterson would leave out more dialogue as the strip went on.

man, reading Catullus' "Passer" verses is funny. Especially when you don't translate Passer with sparrow, but with the other meaning xD

Actually, Calvin and Hobbs is one of my favorite comics ever. But if you don't like comics at all, it's pretty understandable though. But some of my favorite comics are Norwegian, so few/none of you have probably heard about them.

And Don Rosa. He's a genius.

lol @ most of you, Catullus was a Roman poët. And you can translate his verses to just plain verses, about a girl and her love for a sparrow and all. But you can also interprete it differently, which makes the verse... different xD

Oh, well, I suppose you could get an N64 and a physical copy of the game, but I don't think it's worth the trouble.

I don't want to either lol. SPM was fun but it wasn't THAT fun, and I don't really believe people when they are like "first/earlier = better!!"

I found a way to combine all of ★Haseo's names! :D

emigameo :D Don't you like the ring to that? Now no one has to worry about guessing her name wrong :D

If you don't like it though, I have two other options too:
emameo
emigamiseo

and now, just to tease her, I'll post something she doesn't like:
:p

haha ^^

I don't have any trouble with it at all, although I saw some people having trouble with it a few pages back xD

Yeah, I know how you feel. Mostly, people who do that can't get past their nostalgia. But, then again, that doesn't describe everybody.
