Calvin on consumerism

By Omair

It’s funny how the spirit of consumerism can be captured so aptly by a comic strip.

This is a strip from the famous Calvin & Hobbes comic. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the comic, it’s about the life of Calvin, a self-centered six-year old boy with a hyperactive runaway imagination and his imaginary tiger friend, Hobbes.

Some of his observations are surprisingly insightful, as evidenced in the strip below.

The kid’s got a point.
