Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

baby-having has afflicted me with permanent office-job ennui.

Just call me an overachiever, because I got meself afflicted without having to have a baby.

Damn TurboTax. I don't want to pay for filing my state return. I just want to file federal. I suppose I should just suck it up.

Jilli, I think you especially shouldn't watch the clip.

Always Anti-fascist!

Aw{{{Scola}} Does it make you feel any better to know that when you smiled at me in SF, I wanted to giggle like a freshman?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Tom, I believe in you.

I am not a huge fan of Robot Chicken but I'm curious. Can someone w/f for me why this calvin episode is so disturbing?

From everyone's various comments about it, I think you're very right.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Jilli might actually enjoy the Peanuts clip, though.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

It might Jilli, but it might not. Depends if we have similar views on the value of imaginary playmates.

I love watching Franny and her imaginary playmates. First there was The Guy, now she plays with a little girl named Dada.

but, damn, baby-having has afflicted me with permanent office-job ennui.

That's fairly common, I think. Well except for the parents who respond to baby-having by suddenly becoming workaholic, must-bring-home-the-bacon parents.

The premise is that Hobbes is indeed imaginary, and Calvin ends up in a padded room because of it.

You're talking to Clovis's right hand goth.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Like Angel in Provider. *shudder*

The C&H Robot Chicken didn't raise any ire in me. And I'm a huge fan of imaginary playmates. It was sick, yeah. Twisted. But I expect that from Robot Chicken.

That if someone believes in them, that you don't try to disprove their existence, or tell the person that they have to "grow up" and stop believing in them or get rid of them.

(Have I mentioned that I broke up with one boyfriend partially because he informed me that when we moved in together, I would have to get rid of "all the stupid stuffed animals"? I mean, he was not a good person to be around for other reasons, but threatening Clovis and my bears was the final straw.)
