      Yeah just also piping in to say its real. I used to have the whole collection of these as a book, this was in it.

      Watterson was astoundingly good at capturing a whole lot of social dynamics in a single comic, presented in a way literal children could understand.

      I remember reading this as an elementary schooler and looking up words I didn’t know, from the comic, in the dictionary, to actually learn them and fully understand the comic.

      Had to go ‘online’ to figure out ‘caveat emptor’, haha.
