I think our newspaper needs a new advice columnist, so I'm applying for the job. See, I've written some sample answers to people who write in. 'Stop whining and get a life, bozo.' 'Don't tell ME your stupid problems. I've got plenty of my own.' 'Go soak your head, you big baby.' 'Want some advice? Drop dead.' I guess that covers about everything. Can you imagine doing this for MONEY? What a racket! Calvin applies for a job as a newspaper advice columnist. He shows Hobbes some sample answers to people who write in. Hobbes reads 'Stop whining and get a life, Bozo'. He reads three others that read much the same way.
Hobbes tells him that covers about everything. Calvin asks if he can imagine doing that for money. He calls it a racket.
