Josh, you take great pictures.


Thanks, but like I said my friend is the one that took them. But I guess you mean I look great in pictures so thanks.

Just to let you know, I'm wearing my women's hoodie to school today, and people keep asking what Boinks mean. I tell them that's the name of the Calvinball team I play on.

Most look confused, but ask no further questions. heh heh.


Hahaha. I've had much fun as well explaining what Calvinball is to people. I also like to ask people if they saw the game last night.

I don't know if I'd bother responding to anyone that didn't know what Calvinball is.

But shouldn't you do your part to make them a better person? I mean, maybe they just have never heard of it. Is ignorance a sin?

I mean, if they're like "Calvinball pfft more like FAGinball" then yes, you should probably take out their kneecaps. With a truck.

But see, then explaining it would more than likely lead to comments like "Oh, it's from a comic?" since knowing C&H would also mean knowing Calvinball, then I'd be forced to Cape Fear a mouthful of their cheek right off of their face.

You have peers who don't know what Calvin & Hobbes is? Do you fucking work a floor above the Under A Rock department?

No, but I'm just saying IF I did. The subject was whether or not I would bother to try and educate someone that didn't know what Calvinball was, instead of just making soup of them right then and there.

My friends, who have some pretty good t-shirts, have admitted that my Calvinball one owns them.

Correct!

My teacher overheard me says it's my Calvinball team I play on the weekends and he looked at my hoddie, and smirked.

He's the closest to anyone even getting that it's from Calvin and Hobbes.

Hell, my english teacher didn't know but that's probably because she was Philippine. I was pretending to be schocked that the girl next to me had never seen a game of Calvinball and she asked the teacher and the teacher was confused and starting asking me questions about it. That's when I admitted that I was just messing around but the girl insisted "No! You have the shirt!!"

When you're referring to someone from the Philippines, it's Filipino. Technically, when you're talking about a girl, it's Filipina. I'm 1/2 Filipina (though I just say Filipino, because I'm not that technical), so I thought I'd clear that up. It doesn't offend me or anything, just that some immature 20-year-old boy used to call me Philipenis, so I guess it's my unspoken duty to clear things like that up.

Of all the options you just gave us, which one do you think is going to stick?

Alright, I guess I'll be known as the Philipenis girl.

Actually, it was my psychology teacher. It's bold to assume that all English teachers read Calvin and Hobbes.

So what's with the mens' baseball T only coming in L? Because sometimes I stand in a "he must love french fries" zone.

I love getting asked what Calvinball is, because it just leads to me saying "ONLY THE BEST SPORT THERE IS!" and then refusing to explain it to them until they literally beg me. My mastery of minor tortures knows no bounds.

If you guys end up making a new T-Shirt (I hope I hope) I would love to see either a Hyspace related one or a THOG one. That would be quite the bum-ruling experience for me.
