Let the grifters grift. It’s their only gift. You work hard on your craft. You spend hours on your craft. Just for someone to drop a link. Or worse, they drop something unrelated. It stinks. Maybe Bill Watterson was right, when he chose to ignore the sticker grifters. We’ll see.

I knew there was some hubbub about these bootleg images, but these details you shared were new to me. Love Calvin and Hobbes and so does my kiddo 😊
Love the Watterson quote in the photo caption... "ticket to immortality". Truly. Great angle you're point out here. Wish you weren't so accurate in that regard. Also agree with Randy... and Bill Watterson haha
Good points. I hate how the community's become. Its why I really can't interact on the FB communities...
Geez, it is really annoying. Now they are dropping below every comment everywhere. But, still, what Randy said.
This was brilliant! Excellent work!
Well done , straight to the point
They do say that imitation is the most sincere form of flattery.
Eric, this is fabulous!!!❤️❤️💕
