OK, I love Calvin and Hobbes as much as anyone (note my username), but it seems that we don't need to transcribe entire strips. Probably just me. ~ The Noodle Incident 06:47, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

"I try to make everyone's day a little more surreal"? [edit]

I do not think that is appropriate for a caption. It is a picture of a biography of John Calvin and Thomas Hobbes, but it has nothing to do with his famous quote, "I try to make everyone's day a little more surreal." I shall make this edit now.

Terrifying sanitization: where the hell did all the contractions go??? [edit]

If we're going to transcribe all these comics directly, we should do it accurately, FFS. I guarantee you no dialog ever went, "Yes, at long last. Too bad you cannot put on dry clothes. You will feel a lot better... No...wait...do not do that here!!" This is worse than useless, but I don't have access to the source material to fix it. Can someone who has the books transcribe these as they're, you know, actually goddamn written? This is, after all, Wikiquote, not Wikicopyedit. Even me doing these from memory would yield a better result - but that's the very last resort. ☯.ZenSwashbuckler.☠ 20:36, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
