description for "verbing awesomes language"

by Cecily
description is for the cartoon only; the rest of the blog is text.

Calvin and Hobbes cartoon. Calvin and Hobbes are standing in the snow.

Square one:
Calvin: I like to verb words.
Hobbes: What?

Square two (closeup on Calvin)
Calvin: I take nouns and adjectives and use them as verbs. Remember when "access" was a thing? Now, it's something you do. It got verbed. Verbing weirds language.

Square three (both walk off into the snow)
Hobbes: Maybe we can eventually make language a complete impediment to understanding.
