And Calvin?
Calvin and Hobbes (weak joke).
He was not.
A philosopher; yes.
A philosopher; yes.
Calvin: Isnt it strange that evolution would give us a sense of humour? When you think about it, its weird that we have a physiological response to absurdity. We laugh at nonsense. We like it. We think its funny. Dont you think its odd that we appreciate absurdity? Why would we develop that way? How does it benefit us?
Hobbes: I suppose if we couldnt laugh at things that dont make sense, we couldnt react to a lot of life.
Calvin: (after a long pause) I cant tell if thats funny or really scary.
