Calvin and Hobbes

I just saw a cereal called Sugar Bombs in an old Calvin and Hobbes comic.

Collecting

Anyone else addicted to collectin' these?--Drsalvador 12:34, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Locations

Do we really need a locations list as these are spread throughout the wastes, the pitt and point lookout?--Kingclyde 17:35, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

Well yeah, I mean you need them to get Ultra-Jet, so finding them is pretty important.

Kellogg's Sugar Smacks

In 1953, Kellogg's Cereal introduced Sugar Smacks - a cereal that contained 56% sugar by weight. Quite the sugar bomb as a matter of fact.

Does anyone feel this is a strong reference in relation to Sugar Bombs?

--Mattan138 00:04, November 11, 2009 (UTC)

No. The packaging and advertising styles are generically similar to those of the 1950s, as is most of the packaging and advertising in the game. And Sugar Bombs does not equal Sugar Smacks.--Gothemasticator 21:01, November 10, 2009 (UTC)

Obviously, Sugar Bombs does not equal Sugar Smacks. I'm saying Sugar Smacks is the only 1950s cereal that is like Sugar Bombs in more than one way - name, era, and, by pop-cultural definition, a sugar bomb in itself.--Mattan138 00:04, November 11, 2009 (UTC)

Editing the page

There's something strange going on between Firefox(Linux) and the editor for this page. It keeps inserting a line break between "Underworld" and "in Carol", it also used to insert a line break between "Calvert Mansion" and the "(PL)" that used to be there.

Doing that puts the part after the break (a CR, not a
) into a strange box within the table cell. Is this a Firefox or the Linux implementation, I wonder?

It is probably the editor. One way to avoid the problem is to always make edits in wiki-text. When you call up the editing window, click "Source" in the upper right-hand corner of the window. Otherwise, just remember to always use the "Preview" button before saving your edit.--Gothemasticator 05:06, January 11, 2010 (UTC)
