Yes, I Like Pina Coladas!

Hey folks, things have been a bit sparse post-wise lately, with many things going on in our various worlds. Since it's Monday, and I'm on a Father's Day food hangover, I'd go easy today, and do a nice relaxed general pop culture check in. So let's dive right in. Don't be confused, the stuff discussed here isn't all new and upcoming, it's just the stuff I'm "consuming" right now.

(Note: This is a repost of the original) Today’s Topic: Hobbes is to Calvin what Tyler Durden is to Edward Norton’s unnamed Narrator in Fight Club. Things to consider…. 1) Everyday when he comes home from school, Hobbes pounces on Calvin, thus he is fighting himself 2)Hobbes may be an extension of Calvin’s personality he may not be ready to deal with yet, ie: his latent attraction to Suzie Derkins. In the Movie, it’s Tyler who bangs Marla, the Edward Norton character doesn’t even admit to being attracted to her. 3) All of these characters are, in their own way rebelling against authority 4) People who have a decal of Calvin peeing on the logo of a rival truck do NOT get Calvin and Hobbes. AT ALL. Discuss. Please note the Correctness has received a special dispensation, and we can, this one time, talk about Fight Club
