When you lose a piston and a muffler you’re going to have a bad time.

I think that Watterson has made another subtle observation about how the upkeep of an automobile, or the cost of getting a new one, can become secondary or tertiary concerns when you have young children.

My daughter loved the Hobbes & Bacon strips last week. I have every C&H book. It’s time to introduce her.

“Oh, you stupid car!” This is great. So many people do this, yelling at their car like it’s a sentient being and has some say in when it fails us somehow. I’m guessing Opponauts are a little less likely to do this, either blaming ourselves for lackluster maintenance or some engineer or assembly worker somewhere for making a bad decision or doing poor work.
