It's like the Daily Show - brilliant and hilarious because it goes right the core of a serious social ill in this country. Depressingly hilarious.

except it totally ruins the whole experience of calvin and hobbes.
making an obvious joke about medicating calvin, no matter how well executed, still leaves a black pit in my stomach after growing up with the comic. what you think is funny, is what the whole strip tried to tell you to avoid. losing the childlike innocence, without the search for intelligence meant you lost it - which is exactly what that pic was about. it was clever, but never intelligent|
