Line 15:
* A strip has Calvin's mother ask what happened to a kid that mocked Calvin for bringing a stuffed tiger to school. His response: "Hobbes ate him". Calvin - of course - believes Hobbes did, and the fact seems to be no one mocks Calvin about that. Assuming Calvin isn't just making that up, that leaves us with two options: If Hobbes ''is'' real, that means he ate a kid. If Hobbes ''isn't'' real, that means Calvin might have done something really gory to said kid.
* An example occurs in canon, when Calvin and Hobbes are eating breakfast. Note that it doesn't make much sense, as someone could have simply observed a baby cow nursing from its mother, noticed that babies drink their mothers' milk, and realized that humans could drink cow milk too.
{{quote| '''Calvin:''' ''The more you think about things, the weirder they seem. Take this milk. Why do we drink '''cow''' milk?? Who was the guy who first looked at a cow and said. “I think I’ll drink whatever comes out of these things when I squeeze ‘em!”? Isn't that weird?''<br />
'''Hobbes:''' ''(disgusted expression) I think conversation should be kept to a minimum until afternoon.'' }}
 
== [[Fridge Logic]] ==
* Applied rigorously by Calvin and Hobbes. One example is when Calvin declared math to be a religion:
{{quote| '''Calvin:''' You take two numbers and when you add them, they magically become one ''new'' number! No one can say how it happens. You either believe it or you don't. This whole book is full of things that have to be accepted on faith! It's a religion!<br />
'''Hobbes:''' And in the public schools no less. Call a lawyer. }}
** That sounds more like [[Chewbacca Defense]] or [[Insane Troll Logic]].
