      Considering the “I haven’t grown up yet” comment, it might be more than that

        Even if he does grow up he could only manage 3 legs…

          Two legs, four legs…what matters with legs is if they know how to use them…

          One word: metamorphosis.

            Now hold on, we still don’t know whether six legs is good or bad.

        Hey, my cousin has three legs. At least my Aunt says he’s grown another foot since I’ve seen him last.

        I’ll get my coat…

      @Miyaa: Considering how many members of a certain conservative political party uses 1984 as a textbook, Animal Farm might actually be an improvement, nyao.

      Then again, I’m an H.G. Wells kinda cat, myself. “Not to walk on four legs, that is the law! Are we not men?”

      @Burning: Are you from the Deep South, or just live too close to either Flint, MI, Hanford, WA, or the Susquehanna River?

      The paperwork is with the grownups. They are the only ones crazy enough to actually have anything to do with it.

    Rebecca!Tip’s line in the last panel pretty much sums up my approach to interacting with children, too. Glad to know I’m not the only one who thinks like that.

    I once flummoxed a pair of four-year-old girls who were trying to convince me that unicorns didn’t exist by asking them, “But how can you be sure unicorns don’t exist if you’ve never seen one?”

      How is this any different from using confusion for dealing with adults?

        Adult confusion requires money or sex.

    We were at Zoo Lights one holiday with a lot of relatives including my nieces and my ex-girlfriend (who was later best man at my wedding). One of them got in trouble at school that day, and my ex-GF decided to make the ethical point of ‘Two wrongs don’t make a right’, to which I replied ‘But three lefts make a right’. Immediate brain freeze, then my nieces walked slowly forward, turned left, walked forward, turned left, walked forward, turned left. It was hilarious to watch. I also liked hitting them with ‘You’re my two favorite nieces in the whole wide world!’ Later in high school they caught on to what I was doing and shouted back ‘We’re your only nieces, Uncle Wayne!’

    “The key to interacting with children is confusion” says Calvin’s Dad, with his bizarre explanations to Calvin’s questions. BTW, good call on”Kamandi” – I thought that too.

    For the child, the adult, or both?

      Aren’t we all confused?

    Funny to read this today, when I just finished reading Animal Farm a few hours ago.

    … I really hope that’s what you were going for there.
