Replying to Shouting, Conflict! LO4013

John Woods described a Calvin & Hobbes cartoon that reminded me of another
one.

The two are looking up at the night sky full of stars and Calvin comments
to the effect that the expanse of the sky puts his own life into
perspective. Hobbes' response is: "Makes me wonder why humans think of
themselves as such a big screaming deal."

Ah, humility...
